Quoted: you sure it was a US soldier?
ETA: I know a lot of times news stations use stock footage of troops for their segments...I once saw them use clips of Airmen to talk about Marines. I wouldn't be too shocked if they mistook Canadians or Brits for US troops. |
Most of the rest of the squad was armed with M-4s ,most of them with
Aimpoints on top.
It appeared as though most of those with M-4s were advancing while
4 soldiers remained against this wall.
It looked like of the 4,1 HK-91/G3 ,one FAL,1 SAW ,and one had
an M-4 with a scope on it.
They wore some type of digital camo,but were covered with dust.
They were wearing the Kevlar helmets we use ,and
using US gear and intercepter vests.
I didn't see many dark colors on the camo,
so I'd lean towards Marines if I had to pick one.
The film clip was quick,and I wasn't paying attention before
seeing the HK.
The first rifle being held in that line was DEFINATELY an HK
painted in desert camo.
Standard stock and forearm to.
The second being an FAL I'm unsure of ,it could have been
a longer barreled M-16 with a funny flash hider ,but
I thought I saw the characteristic humped stock of an FAL.
If you've watched FOX news ,than you know they'll show it again,just
watch for it.
