And, of course, how to engage targets. I became a big fan of EMP when I had a rifle platoon, to the point that my Marines became sick of dry-fire presentation drills.

Sounds like a winner. They may have hated the drills, but i bet they could shoot.

The only thing clean on him is his weapon and he made his web gear. He doesn't worry about what workout to do - his ruck weighs what it weighs, his runs end when the enemy stops chasing him. This True Believer is not concerned about 'how hard it is;' he knows either he wins or dies. He doesn't go home at 17:00, he is home.
He knows only The Cause.
Still want to quit?
