You know after serious consideration i decided to share my how to stay awake on watch secrets. 3 things you can do while remaining alert and scaning for bad guys.
#1 wasabi peas or blue diamomd almond wasabi almonds the spice clears you sinus and allows you to smell the enemy
#2 Take a dump, push out 10 meters take you clacker with you and take a fat mre brick sized dump.
#3 sanitize with purell  and rub excess mud onto uniform and rub one out.
Please add to the list from tou experience.

For the past 20 years we have had night vision at the individual soldier level.  If you can smell the enemy you have failed in your duties.

Also not sure how taking a dump or rubbing one out makes one more alert, especially during the act.  Even more so considering the enemy sneaking up on you to the point where you can smell them first was apparently a valid consideration for you.

Personally, I try to know what my OP will be about before I decide to type one up.

Generally, I only spend about 5 to 10 minutes max typing an OP out...

I never really had trouble staying awake to type up an OP either...

John Plaster, SOG.

Tells a tale of early use of suppressed gun with in SOG. One day a SOG team was near a river bank iirc and watching some troop movement. Guy in a poncho was left behind and was getting ready to catch up... But what was he doing under that poncho...

Rubbing one out.

So, with a suppressed gun, they rubbed him out.

But at least he busted a nut before shot right in the chest and left to die...

I have found that an intense and borderline irrational phobia of spiders is sufficient to stay awake indefinitely on ops.

I can't.
So I got a commission so I can sleep while the enlisted are on LP/OP.

How about getting a full 8 hours of sleep the night before, and drinking some small batch, light roasted coffee?

This guy is worried about smelling people but has no problem taking dumps, rubbing one out, and using purell lol.

Is the mud on  the uniform for lubrication?

How the fuck are you supposed to smell motherfuckwrs if you've got fucking wasabi all up in your nose from chewing on some noisy ass nuts?

And you're gonna take a full on, non-emergency, shit that close to your OP?  Just because?

You gotta come up with some better shit than that if you're gonna pretend to be special recon group forces

Pro-tip: don't Herp while you're Derping and you'll stay awake.

"#2 Take a dump, push out 10 meters take you clacker with you and take a fat mre brick sized dump."

So if I am closely following these steps, I take a dump in my hide site, then take my clacker with me 10 meters out, and then take another larger dump?  Why two dumps?  Is the first dump to throw the bad guys off my scent while I'm taking the real dump 10 meters away?  Is it like a decoy dump?

Rubber band around the wrist.  Snap it when I start fading...pain is a powerful motivator.

But then the enemy, who is a mere 10 meters away after following the smell of wasabi scented shit will hear the snap and you just gave away your pos!

And then he'll clack that claymore off and it'll be wasabi, burnt shit and ass everywhere.  That's a Medal of Honor move right there ...

Always have a few paperclips bent and ready to fire with the rubber band.

That'll distract him long enough to let you sneak up and rambo knife him in the face.
