Great video. I remember the longer we stayed in the field my sense of smell would get so turned up. I once was talking to another platoon leader and realizing there was something different about him; I realize after being in the woods for nine days straight, in 90+ degree heat without showers, I could smell he had just returned from the barracks and that he had snuck a shower. He smelled clean from feet away. Also like you said once on patrol my platoon located an OPFOR position because they were smoking.

I'm only an airsofter but I've learned some useful tips from these types of videos. If I'm not using my ghillie suit in game, I always carry a few rubber bands with me, they can be put on your arms and you can stuff vegitation into them, helping break up the shape of the shoulders. That and some vegitation on your head and rifle is a great makeshift ghillie. I'm in the process of making a ghillie net I can roll up and keep in a pouch, then it can be unrolled and I can go prone underneath it, to help mask my position. Great content, Bren

Awesome pros and (the many) cons. The one thing I learned young was that failure is not an option; but, it is a damned fine teacher. Doing something wrong (and living through it and not getting anyone else dispatched) teaches you at least two things. One, what not to do. Two, what to do right. And, in my case, three, having enough gained training to train someone else. Well done my friend! Old dogs can learn new tricks! Thank you.

[@CharlieFoxtrot3]

Great video. If your uniform has pockets on the arms and legs, you can stuff natural materials like twigs or grass there. If you put long grass in the upper pockets on your arms, they can partially cover your head. Also it's good to jump up and down couple of times before you go out, so you can hear and eliminate any metal-on-metal rattle of your gear.

[@alexanderdurnovich1131]

I believe their is also a 3rd option for camouflaging the face. A face viel. Now, a lot of units don’t allow it, but during some experimental operations we found that the face viel made of a mesh cloth painted in any pattern does well and doesn’t necessarily cut off your vision as much as you think and it was very effective when I’ve used it.

[@CWCvilleCop]

I have to say, this is my favorite method for hunting. I can't stand faceshields or masks that cut off my breathing, but a veil is very unobtrusive and works well. You can also sew them onto any standard baseball cap easily. I'm sure there are a lot of reasons why they're not used in the field, but for hunting, they're really comfy and effective.

I was working as a range safety a few years ago and some kid was having a terrible time zeroing.

2 things, "A walking Blackhawk catalog". Besides being funny as hell is also absolutely true.

Keep your kit slim and trim without compromising ammo loadout and other critical items. The ass n balls comment is absolutely spot on.

[@humanerror8787]

A couple of tips: try to keep your camo pattern as consistent as possible,this includes your face,the more you camo matches over your entire body the harder it is to see you. The brim of your boonie hat and helmet create a shadow that is easily distinguishable from the rest of you,your boonie hat brim should be trimmed back as far as possible to less'n that shadow. The helmet should have a camo cover that over-laps the edges and should be cut in an irregular pattern (all the way around)and not straight across the brim,back and sides. Additional tip: the cotton poly blend fabric can be waterproofed for a extended period of time by rubbing a non-scented candle into the fabric and melting with a hairdryer or worst case a camp fire. The fabric does become slightly stiffer and may increase heat retention,to avoid this just apply to the neck,upper back and shoulder area as well as your boonie hat and helmet cover.

I can only imagine if your Hat came across your material, a smile would definitely come to his face as you continue to represent your brother's in arms and the Corps with excellence!

[@Brent0331]

Thanks brother. They actually don't cover much infantry related material in recruit training. Most of that is taught at SOI. I designed these videos specifically for junior Marines/Soldiers and NCOs.

Much respect from Russia 🇷🇺 хорошая работа брат 👍

[@aeae3314]

Right, our sergeants can learn a lot from the foreign colleague Brent I hope I will never have to face him or people he taught on the battlefield!

[@Brent0331]

Thanks brother, I appreciate it.

[@charlienelson7276]

Thanks for your service

[@Gmar69]

Brent, this was my MOS in Vietnam, and we had the same problems there too. Awesome video. Semper Fi!!!

[@Brent0331]

Thanks brother.

[@Ibelieve218]

We as tankers learned about camo and smoking along with light at night with live examples and we also had to camo our steel pot helmets which also served as your shaving washing sink

[@jasonjuarez5843]

This guy is just amazing man

[@Brent0331]

Thanks brother

[@andrewhall2235]

Awesome, informative videos. I appreciate that you're not high-speed, shooting range style. But field op and movement. People often forget that the world isnt like a shooting range.

[@Brent0331]

thanks brother.

[@romanludwig4431]

im not in the military or do play military but damn. I appreciate you being straight forward and getting to the point

[@fadingdimension]

First of all thank you for your service and also for sharing all this knowledge in such a no nonsense manner. I'd love to see a cold wet dogshit weather gear video. Tempurate winter conditions with rain etc. Cold and miserable. Thanks again!

[@Brent0331]

Thats a thought for the future, thanks.

[@richstone2627]

First rate presentation. Thank you

[@Brent0331]

Thanks brother.

[@grnsmoke3307]

Former GRUNT out of the 25th ID (Light) damn fine video brother! Look forward to more on this series and will be checking out past Videos.

[@Brent0331]

Thanks brother.

Absolutely great information, thanks for passing on your knowledge.

Glad it was helpful!

[@mkw2555]

Brent this absolutely great subject and superb video !! Than you very much. God bless you.

[@Brent0331]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@hellcatpilotjj7482]

Great video as always! Being active duty Army I knew all of these, but it's definitely great to have a refresher. Many thanks!

[@CWCvilleCop]

You're not kidding about the effectiveness of a camouflaged weapon. I remember hunting with my father one time when he had just covered his rifle in camo tape. At the end of the day, he had left his spot to come find me so we could go back to the lodge. I saw him from a long way off, but didn't see his rifle. The whole time, I watched him and wondered what he had done with his rifle. He was almost within speaking distance and I almost asked him "Where's your rifle?" when I finally saw that he was carrying it like usual. I couldn't see the rifle for the life of me with that camo pattern on it!

[@therock809]

Hey gunny guess who’s in the infantry now in a Wpns Co this is actually extremely helpful for me now

[@Brent0331]

Awesome brother, welcome to the brotherhood. S/F

[@docwhiskey996]

Every 03 series Marine and 11 series Soldier should watch this. All the 8404s and 68w's too. For reasons.

[@erdholanda1.1973]

Thanks greetings from Chile

[@finkamain1621]

Sadly, this video will be extremely useful in the future if the internet is still up

[@James-uu6xs]

Write it down

[@akompsupport]

Download the manuals.

[@ProbablyTooLoud]

They will leave the internet up to gather intel, just like they do now. Study the entire timeline of the Arab Spring Uprising and the regimes that took down the web, cell signals, etc. only caused those on the fence to choose sides. Be weary of phishing channels, of which this is not one.

[@Brent0331]

Yup, you can download the references I cite in the tittle. They're free to download in a PDF format.

[@finkamain1621]

@@Brent0331 Thanks man, I appreciate it

[@josephstalin6549]

Best Aussie soldier ever

[@docback63]

I will be downloading this asap. I'm afraid this info will be very helpful in the not to distant future. That aside, man Brent you're like Marine Force Recon out there man!!

[@Brent0331]

That's the thing brother, the stuff I'm showing here is nothing high speed. All this should be what basic Infantryman Marines/Soldiers should be doing. Nothing special about proper camouflage, it's something every grunt should do.

[@huntersrauwolf]

Great video! It's crazy how much even a flat black painted rifle sticks out!

[@Brent0331]

Thanks

[@bobrobert9045]

Thank you for making these videos

More to come!

[@captian2044]

Yo this is perfect I have my own gta mil sim/military rp I use this a lot I was really looking for stuff for a face and head camo for infantry in each mission in my rp for the mil sim we have a hole diffrent uniform like if we did somthing in the paleto bay forest we would have woodland camo guns will be dark green and jungle face paint this helped a lot out of all the vids I watched this is the only one that does not take 10min to finally start talking about the camo

ALWAYS a great day when brent uploads!

Thanks brother.

[@barnaclebill1615]

Great video as always. I sure appreciate the tip on taping the binoculars with slats. It isn’t always easy finding filters for the optic chosen. 😁👍👍

[@Max-rk1oy]

You are my favorite youtuber. You probably are a good hunter/sniper

[@Brent0331]

Thanks.

[@alvaroeloredo]

Awesome another great video. And a like and comment for you to help do the things! Thanks!

[@josephvandyck5469]

During Iraq deployment 2(Bdad 2006-2008) given that the US Army issues the ACUs in UCP, I spray painted my rhino mount primer gray and a flat tan/ sand. Also did my bayonet on my body armor. One of the MAJs on the team commented on my camo painting. I explained I was in LRS in early mid 90s. Then 2nd BDE 1st ID rolled in 4 months later and damned it I wasn't a trend setter. On a different note, for helmets you can always use the old "7th ID Manchu Du". Think Just Cause in Panama. Personally, I would like to see the US goes to the mitznefet helmet cover. (Think chef Boy R Dee hat) just my 2 cents.

[@mikesideburns9791]

Great video Brent. I know this was a video on the basics of individual considerations but chow is another to be covered possibly in the future. Chow should be collected and hidden so your enemy can't detect you were there. at the very least it should be buried or carefully destroyed. it also gives off a scent. Also, regarding your comments on watches, make sure the watch you have is TURNED to SILENT. it can go off at the wrong time and give away your position.

[@Brent0331]

Yup, thanks for watching.

[@theoutdoorobserver8038]

Another great video. Thank you sir!

Hi Brent. Thank you for an informative and entertaining video. Stays safe in these troubled times. ATB. Nigel

[@Brent0331]

Thanks, you too!

[@christmasdenier]

Your videos are getting better and better man ☝ I'd say great video as always but this is probably your best one. It looks like it took you some time.

[@Brent0331]

Thanks brother.

[@buckers67buck77]

The way things are, this sort of thing will be a requirement in all environments. Glad I kept a lot of my CEFO (combat equipment, fighting order). Best of luck, folks! Former British infantryman.

[@Brent0331]

Thanks for watching and commenting brother.

[@fmike15]

Great vid! I need to get my basic skills book back out.

[@Brent0331]

Yup, many of these videos I'm making are coming straight from basic Infantry bibles like that 3-11.
