Also remember if someone threatens you and has a gun and you shoot him first and he drops. Before you leave pick up his gun and ammo. Check pocket for gold, silver and anything of value to trade. Mary ann

Actually, one of the first things you learn is not to radio your Three, just recon it, then go ahead and terminate the objective. Any flack later and you say you were having probs with your PRC77 and couldn't call to update clearance...............

My favorite debriefing conversation about op completion went like this:

"FUBAR?"

"Big time!"

"Let's get a beer." :thumbsup:
