if you notice the pattern of fire is actually pretty precisely adjusted - first the shot is way too far to the right of the troops - then its much close to the base, but still too far - but the third one falls inside the walls - not bad for an un-trained, third world army using old equipment
oh shut up. I worked with Brits in Iraq. They stay pretty much out of sight because their gov't only gives them un-armored Land Rovers to work with.
They're great soldiers, the US troops are great soldiers...and the Romanians and Italians too. You idiots who whip out your notional phallus every chance you get are the type great soldiers just leave behind.
the point is the people of the uk dint want to be part of the iraq war most european country's still wont
afghanistan is a difrent storry
btw your soldiers might have the best equipment but they arent the best i have seen better soldiers they are trying to do their job right and i respect them for that
Never mind that the HMMWV has no armor, it doesn't even have a ROOF! In a country as hot, sunny, windy, and dusty as Afghanistan!
Also, why are the troops at that garrison living in tarps and tool sheds? After all, the Pentagon has more than [b]$1,000,000,000,000[/b] of extra money lying around! (the number in NOT an exaggeration)
Obviously experienced indirect fire operators, did you notice the first two shots landed either side of the base, then the next shots landed inside ie., bracketing with adjust fire.
if u guys are watchin it why would they fire motars seems stupid cuz 1 could uhit u guys now im 15 i live in canada goin to join the army reserve then movin on to the army so tell me wat its like bein there? also if u are still out there come home sae god speed guys :D
And to think. Most of these taliban and al queda rape more little boys and girls then then they can grow opium to make heroine with. Isn't rape like a cardinal sin in islam? Punishable by immidiate death? Jihad? Not really. Try trying to protect their drug dealer, pedophile, rapist butts. It's kinda of why sunni's in iraq are sick of them. They've raped or murdered half their population already. No one else to rape but old men.
Lack of pussy is the leading cause of problems in the world. But honestly this alleged "terrorism" stuff if either
a) A provocation
b) War by proxy
c) Act of destabilization
How many times have these spooks have been caught baby sitting "terrorists" or entrapping them, running fake "madrasas?" Obviously these muslims have to be smarter but terrorism is the work of bigger players, always.
not wrong bout the armour & tracks but there are upsides to weeled vehicles like the sas & nzsas do in afganistan, light fast and heavyly armed - put a 84 and heavy machine guns on it and dont drop below 85kmph - if u hit a mine make sure youve got a striped down pinzguaer or a landrover cuz youll just fly right out instead of caught inside an amoured bullet magnet. Thers pros and cons for evrything but man the shit that happened here FUCKIN HELL!!!
I shot this video, and they were not mortar's they were rockets that were on timers launching "towards" us. Rockets are direct fire, and mortars are indirect, They way the rockets are launched is from a trigger timer from a cell phone or a oven timer, then the rocket is proped up against a rock directed towards the base. At the end of the video we were firing 81mm mortars on the mountain side.
Not quite. The TRAJECTORY determines if something is direct or indirect (arcing). Rockets can be indirectly fired with an arc as well as line-of-sight direct fired.
They can be, but there is no way to tell where the round is going to go because there is no way to aim the rocket indirectly. I can shoot a .556 in a arc and hit something, the ground, but can I do it with accuracy? no
Mortars don't make a sound till about 20' off the ground when their arc begine to go more verticle and perpendicular to the ground. It is a common mistake with mortars and rockets
guys, pretend like youre in the soviet union during the late 70's the enemy is friggin everywhere you almost are mocking them by carrying camcorders and walking around so relaxed. another respect the country you are trampling over a little bit more, if everyone of you guys were model soldiers the iraqi's would respect us a little more. im sorry i know your fighting a war thats fxd up but keep your guard up be nice and come home.
lol.. theres no "winning" against a population of determined people who don't want a different way of life forced upon them by imperialists. it simply won't happen nicely, infact it wont even happen forcefully. its just not possible i dont know how the president of the most powerfull nation cant seem to grasp such a simple concept! its mind boggling
Well, we are hoping that the people want the current U.S. backed-weak central government more than the oppressive Taliban, but our air strikes to compensate for our weakness in wheeled trucks hurts popular support
wow the professionalism of these troops is amazing.. is it SOP to squeal like bitch when rounds come in... i could never compare you guys to the old breed that went into WW1 and WW2
I partly agree with you. Obviously it would help if the military leadership would finally draw the proper consequences, and offer better armored vehicles to the occupying forces. Still where I disagree, is that I wouldn't see these changes anything more, than what improve the tactical conditions temporarly. Eventually the enemy will adjust to the new conditions, and the combatants -again- will reach an equilibrium on a higher level.
