Those uniforms are nearly as easy to get there as they are here.

I say we leave all UCP shit coyly unsecured in an abandoned base in N2KL.

It'll make shit easy.

Shouldn't they have been wearing PT belts if they wanted to fool the sentries?

A MALS-39 Marine in AFG smoked three hadjis in ACUs.

He said he was yelling at them that he was a Marine and to stop shooting until he realized they were wearing sneakers instead of boots.

We've lost so many Humvees to these assholes over the years.....

We need to have a stand down day, where all US forces remain within their perimeter.

Tell the A-10 and AH-64 pilots that all Humvees outside of certain boundaries are legit targets.

Would cut down on some of this BS...

That's what they were wearing when they attacked us at Camp Bastion in September, 2012.

I have great pictures of their corpses.  Some of them burned beyond recognition.

This was one of them.  He had a big hole in his face.  The little weasel to his right died with a grenade clutched in his had (pin-pulled).  Gotta give him props for that...

I believe in the Euro Theater WWII that being caught with the enemy's uniform on was grounds for summary execution....Oh, wait...

Inconsistent. One post says "Islamic State" claimed responsibility. Second one states "suspected Taliban." They do realize that these are two distinct, separate organizations? Do they not??

I would not want to be the guy who gives the ok to splat guys who ‘appear’ to be US military.
I’d think there’s ways of ID’ing friend/foe (I don’t wanna know... OPSEC ‘n all that) but still.
Shit does sometimes happen.

That said, enjoy your 72 virgin goats MF’ers

The problem is that any mechanism of ID'ing friend or foe would be captured or copied.  It's no real secret that we have IR reflective tags to put on the uniforms, which can readily be located some places online outside the US...

In this case it was all “ green on green” (Afghan shooting Afghans)...so there wasn’t much involved in the decision to shoot process.

I happened to be about a klick away when this kicked off; a couple of explosions (attempted breach which also wiped out a lot of the breaching party) and then a heavy volume of return/outgoing small arms fire.

When one or two of ‘em blow themselves up, it’s probably OK to light up the rest of the guys with them.

It was Afghan security forces that killed them, right?  This was probably a green on blue attack that went wrong and they killed terrorists by mistake.

I call bullshit.  The only reason they knew they were posers is because they didn't have their reflective belts on.
