I don't get why they dress in normal clothes. I know to possibly blend in or not intimidate others. But dressing like a mid level office worker with grenades hanging on your thin leather belt, machine guns, communication gear just looks odd. I guess what I'm saying is its obvious they are .mil so why hinder themselves by wearing normal clothes? No disrespect intended Another question. It looks like 4-5 guys per group. All look to be traveling light, but 1 in the group has a backpack in every picture, what's in the pack? Quoted:

If this question is uncouth or disrespectful, please correct me and I will delete it. Why would they wait so long to bury him? Maybe, just a WAG here, that it is the date of the reporting and not the actual burial? 37 years, he went in when I was 5 years old. Incredible journey. RIP, warrior ETA: It appears he was cremated after his return to the US and his family have his ashes entombed there. What an incredible Marine and Soldier, the more I read about him. "...that such men lived." Great vid of him and captures a bit of who he is..great american. He goes into how America was founded, Bill of Rights, etc..wow.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVHMc1LP4nM Wow is right. Damn good speech, I'd buy that guy a beer if he was still with us. |

I was kicking it at my buddies' house down the street from me. They're Raiders and their garage was overflowing with Mystery Ranch packs, Ops-Core buckets, Crye this, Eagle that, with just about everything in between. Most of that shit was still in the wrappers with the tags and lot numbers pinned on. I asked them what was up, why hadn't they used that shit. They basically told me what optimus said: "We're not always working in that type of posture." |

I find a couple things interesting in the past few pages: 1. The return of woodland camo. 2. The pockets sewn onto the front of the pants. They look like riggers added them, not the factory. 1. Woodland is used because that is what the forces we are trainng are using. 2. The pockets aren't riggers mods, but part of the design of the pants. |

But suppose it started pissing rain AFTER those troopers set everything up just for him. He pulls up in his fancy .gov Suburban all cozy and dry, rolls the window down and tells the lads to pack it up. His message to me would've been "Whatever y'all gotta tell me ain't important enough for me to get outta this 'Burban and get soaked like a drowned rat." So I respect him for standing there in that deluge with those troopers without a jacket or even an umbrella. [shrugs] YMMV.  |

Didn't know he was still active. He keeps a full schedule. I like the show " Dude your screwed ". Didn't care for the black seal on top shot, but he doesn't seem to have the attitude on this show that he did on Top Shot. Could of been a lot more behind the scene goings on the show then they aired that just made him look bad. Directors and Editors choice I guess. |
