Well guess what goofy, Im 35 and did my time during the height of the war. What did we get for it? Not shit. So go ahead motivator, go put yourself up to the grinder. Go get hurt for a country that doesnt care and a government that will turn its back on you the moment youre done. Its really the only way youll actually understand and open your eyes. Its okay. I was the same way too. Bright eyed motivated boot that ignored all the vets who said the same things. So go and find out. Youll see 😂

Back in 1976 we used iron sights, we had no optics. The 500 yard line was tough with iron sights. Semper Fi

[@johnfisher8401]

believe it or not, iron sights are not that difficult. New era, train like we fight..and we dont fight with iron

[@mikemcelfresh5679]

Used iron sights in 2010.

[@Ranstone]

Yeah, in my era, we used a single bead sight, and no rear sight with our flintlocks. We shot down from masts at the British below, and were trained to only shoot the guys without the crosses on their covers, while they engaged in melee below. This new corps using iron sights, scopes, and multi-shot rifles couldn't handle the good old days, back when we had the real Tun Tavern.
