If you want to brush up on something, focus on computers. Learn basic networking, and if you don't know how to type, get a cheap typing program, and learn. Everything else will be tought as needed. And as for being the most protected man on the team, not anymore. With some of the new wiz bang gear we have, even a delta (for NDD) can learn, with some cross training.

PRC-77s are ubiquitous in my AO still. IMC is still truly international. What are you going to do when you go to some hole and it is the only means available? POWs used code while held. Tools in the box.
