An "I've been there" remark.

Start with the Claymore. It's the best chance for hits because the eneny is on his feet. Open with a SAW and most everybody hits the dirt leaving little for the Claymore to hit. The dust and smoke from the Claymore may provide concealment for the enemy, but not cover. If a kill zone is obscured it is still a kill zone. The biggest danger in an ambush is the enemy coming forward right thru it. You must suppress that possibility even if you can't see him after the Claymore. It's funny too how many ambushers are not prepared for the ambush failing and have an RP established.
