Not Work Safe .

A-Stan 2002. My three man PSYOP team was attached to a SF team for my deployment, which included a USAF TACP.

Vehicles: soft skinned Humvees / and Toyota Trucks
Weapons: 50 cal / M240B / M249 SAW / M4's / M203 / M4 Benelli Shotgun / M9 pistols...a few locally acquired AKs
Armor: old Ranger plate armor, which we never wore...Standard Helmets, which we never wore.
Gear: LBE's, but we used personally bought Blackhawk chest rigs (wasn't much avail on the market at the time)
Misc: AT-4s (Min 2 per vehicle), Frags, Smoke, Flares, MBITR radios, SATCOM vehicle radios, PVS-7 NGV
Uniform: DCU Tri-color and civilian clothes. Ops inside 20 KM of safe house you only had to have one uniform item on...usually pants. Issued desert boots and civilian hiking boots, and baseball hats.
(Note: We took our DCU tops to the riggers who moved the bottom pockets to the upper arm, added velcro, and sewed glint tape to the shoulder area.)

QRF: was usually the four guys we left back at the safehouse with the remainder of the Afghan warlord guys. Air assets were a couple of hours away and ground support were about six hours away, minimum. Night was better, two AC-130s were up at night doing racetracks every night...weather permitting.

Iraq 2007: Typical big army issue gear, too much stuff you never used. Armor too big and clunky.

If there is such a thing as a "good war" it was Afghanistan until about 2006. MG Olsen from 25th ID changed all of that and started us on our path to ruin.

Absolutely. What’s not to like about the slaughter of jihadists and revenge for 9/11. If they’d kept it focused on that and gave finger to all the rest of the bullshit, maybe they would’ve caught up with UBL a few years sooner.

We always have to fuck things up by trying to be good.

I'm in NoVa, and people here can't drive when its not snowing. You know how dangerous they become when there's 5 inches on the ground?

NGL, that sounds super comfy. It'll be snowing outside and the house will smell like butter, nutmeg, and cinnamon.

After heavy snows I'm partial to pancakes, bacon, and spearmint tea. Then shoveling snow for the sake of shoveling snow. It's nice.
