It’s book smart harder

But we’re not here for no books

I also found out, that earning your jump badge, and being jump ready, does not mean you are a paratrooper, you have to be put into the 82nd.

82nd baby

You can't simply finish school and immediately go in.

I would love be air borne if I wasn’t such a pussy about heights

That would be an issue, it isn't a debilitating fear, but it would distract me so much.

What’s funny is that my dad said a lot of marines going through jump school were whinny little babies about having to jump. They were really scared

Same

I could do it if need be, but my heart would be pounding out of my chest the entire time

Because if you don't hand off correctly when bailing out, you could rip the guy behind you's arm off, and if you don't do it right, you could land on top of another man's parachute, ensuring both of your deaths.

Yeah

At the same time though, many people in ww2, even the toughest would say they’d go on “walks” before a jump but really they were shitting their brains out some where

5 successful jumps are required to get your badge, and then you have to do one jump a month to stay jump qualified.

Ye

But a lot of soldiers in WW2 didnt even do their 5 jumps before going in

One colonel, can’t remember his name did his 5th jump into Normandy lol

Soldiers getting stuck in trees and shit was a serious issue.

Like that accident a month ago, several airborne died during an exercise, because the wind blew them off course.

Yeah it causes a lot of deaths. That’s what’s really sad

“The army doesnt make mistakes”

How the fuck did they not notice it was super windy

Deadpool 2 irl

It's funny, in every war simulation with Iran we have run, the 82nd gets it's shit pushed in hard.

Look at this thicc Iranian officer.

I find it amusing, Iran uses US camo's.

I spot 3 Color, UCP, MARPAT, etc.

I just woke from a dream

In it I pondered questions

Police in group confrontations will always seek to maneuver who they engage

Mobs never seem to have any knowledge of logistics and tactical awareness in that regard

They use shields when they close in. Why have a frontline with polearms of sorts, with a blunt hook or something similar - to grab at shields from a distance - not been utilized?

This could break the shieldwall, and alow for the debris flingers to actually have an effect

Doesn't even have to be sharp or pointy, just have that hook, and a blunt end. So you nudge in behind the shield and target, pull and then push to strike

I guess teargas would make a problem since it disperse people too easily
