Movement, breaking contact, radio frequencies

2019-12-31 00:25:21 UTC  

All of those are perishable skills

2019-12-31 00:25:50 UTC  

Yeah, we were trained by Uncle Sam, but we stay up to date

2019-12-31 00:26:01 UTC  

Rogals comment lasted long

2019-12-31 00:28:15 UTC  

I recommend getting a boafeng UVR in general

2019-12-31 00:28:18 UTC  

Ive been working on a mobile TOC platform

2019-12-31 00:28:31 UTC  

Backpack recievers n all that

2019-12-31 00:29:34 UTC  

Yeah, I throw coms and wires in my assault pack or on my chest rig depending on where it works best. Usually when I’m setting up targets for alpine warfare training, we need targets at all distances

2019-12-31 00:30:06 UTC  

So the radios work well then

2019-12-31 00:30:22 UTC  

Just to confirm hits and distances

2019-12-31 00:30:58 UTC  

Hilariously enough, someone thought we were SWAT officers today when we peeled out of the tree line and onto the range

2019-12-31 00:31:16 UTC  

Lmao, swat

2019-12-31 00:31:21 UTC  

We just said, nah, we’re not cops and laughed it off

2019-12-31 00:31:29 UTC  

I bet y'all are better trained than them tbh

2019-12-31 00:31:47 UTC  

I've out shot cops vefore and I dont have any formal training

2019-12-31 00:32:14 UTC  

We all have formal military training so I’m sure we are better off than most cops in most combat fields

2019-12-31 00:44:13 UTC  

@thedarkness05 >being better trained than police

If you go to the range more than a few times a year and train on something more than basic pistol marksmanship, you're better trained.

Sprinkle some medical in there

2019-12-31 00:47:44 UTC  

We do tactical combat casualty care, IFAK/TQ training, urban combat, mountain warfare, and bounding to cover mainly

2019-12-31 00:48:04 UTC  

We also do off roading to get to the range haha

2019-12-31 00:49:01 UTC  

We have monthly trainings and annual FTXs now

2019-12-31 00:49:31 UTC  

I used to do lots of that with a larger group. They dissipated after trump was elected. Like he would solve everything...

2019-12-31 00:49:45 UTC  

Lol, keep the training

2019-12-31 00:50:50 UTC  

Yup. FTXs. We had stations. A classroom, usually a skeleton house to train clearing, a medical station. Wed switch the skeleton style shoot house out for actual live fire too. Dependant on who wanted to teach

2019-12-31 00:51:12 UTC  

Hell yeah, that sounds excellent

2019-12-31 00:51:33 UTC  

It was. Perfect. But complacency kills.

2019-12-31 00:53:50 UTC  

I was disgruntled about it for awhile. Also disgruntled that even after trying to take the reigns, no one had it in them to train anymore. Boomer to stop training because your idol got elected.

2019-12-31 00:57:56 UTC  

You should get it going again

2019-12-31 01:01:12 UTC  

Tried. No one has it in them to train from that group of dudes. I'm at square 1 again. That's not to say I dont train now with dudes, but we have no land. We have to go to the national forest to train.

2019-12-31 01:01:30 UTC  

No classroom either, or shoot house type structure.

2019-12-31 01:01:41 UTC  

But we make due

2019-12-31 01:02:36 UTC  

Then it sounds like you need to become motivated to mobilize. Get the hype up. At my gun store, I’ve found a way to work the crowd

2019-12-31 01:02:58 UTC  

I literally Recruit from people who buy things

2019-12-31 01:02:58 UTC  

Give me the shovel. How do you dig

2019-12-31 01:03:23 UTC  

Like, write a scenario for me how youd approach this

2019-12-31 01:05:14 UTC  

I won’t ask your location for security reasons. But there are ways, I remember when people laughed me down. They’d say “yeah? You and what group do you plan on doing tactical training with?! You’re only one man!” Now we have a tactical group that grows every year. New members always bring new things to expand it. How did this happen? Working the crowd. Talking with people. Not kidding.

2019-12-31 01:06:29 UTC  

I work in a tactical weapons store. So that helps hype the people up. Much like a rock band member hypes an audience

2019-12-31 01:07:10 UTC  

I met a few guys. Who knew guys, know knew guys. Who all liked guns and freedom

2019-12-31 01:08:23 UTC  

Huh...

2019-12-31 01:08:48 UTC  

It’s the truth. I just kept meeting people and inviting them

2019-12-31 01:09:13 UTC  

You talk in the right circles long enough. People want to do tactical training as a group

2019-12-31 01:09:42 UTC  

Before I knew it, I had guys more elite than me asking to join in the fun
