Regt. SOP on PC's

Post by Maggot275 »

I've done a search and found nothing. With all this ACU bullshit, is the Regt. still holding it's standards with the ACU PC . Ranger tab, cat eyes, etc. Just curious, I still love my KW, I wear bowhunting and on range days.
Attack CO 2/75 01/94-12/98
Ranger Class 08-95

I then asked the Lord: "Why was there only one set of footprints?"
He answered: "The terrain was beginning to constrict and our hit time was coming close. So I put us in a Ranger file."

I'm glad I went when it was still easy so I could smoke, chew and dip (sometimes all at once). K pot and miles gear? That's crazy talk! :lol:

I didn't wear nothing but The Tick, Jungle Fatigues, Patrol Cap and a DIP that weighed in right at 2 pounds. Of course I did attend the first easy class.

Seems like they would get seriously fucked up during your PLF. (If they stayed on through the opening shock). Just my .02
It's all good.

I've seen pics of the French jumping in MOPP Level 4, but I'm still pretty sure jumping with NOD's on your helmet is a no-no.
