I play airsoft in Utah with a team/group called Black Thorn Airsoft; a few years ago we used to go up to Camp Williams Army National Guard Base and play airsoft on their MOUT facility, FOB, and a forested area on the outskirts of the base. There were about 10 of us that were able to go up there and on the third time out we were posing as an OPFOR for a very large number of National guard soldier, (All newer guys that had not gone to basic training or just got back from basic) There were four platoons of the guardsmen and they sent one platoon into the field at a time and our team "BTA" had to set up an ambush and try and take them all out, while the guardsmen had to quickly come up with a plan and work as a team to take us out, the OPFOR. We destroyed them pretty badly haha, but it was an awesome experience, one I will never forget, Sgt. Day, the man who was running the whole thing thanked us afterwords and had all the guardsmen thank us, we then thanked all of them for their service and for the awesome experience. Sgt. Day then presented us with an American flag patch, and a dog tag that said Alpha Company and had their insignia on it, and on the back side it said the Army values.
For the first time seeing this video 13 years later, I still remember the slipknot song "wait and bleed" was in place of drowning pool's "sinner." Great CQB video still to this date!!!
i dont understand how this stuff works, if i was sat in the room with a m249 aimed at the door, and a stream of people checked the room while moving for 0.5sec before the next person moves in, they would all get wasted unless 100% of room clearence use a flashbang
Cqb training is fun! I'm a tanker so I don't do it that much but because I'm in the 3ID I have go go through some infantry training, and it's fun sometimes! :)
@adamobarca were changing to a higher caliber rifle. some troops including now days all of our army rangers are equipped with the SCAR H. the marines and special forces like the REC 7 and other custom weapons
I've never been in a house where someone sat in a corner with an M249 waiting fos us. Hard Knock raids we did with Flash Bangs and after the first rounds alerted the village we were there we used G charges for alternate breech points. MOUT works when done properly, but its not like paintball at your local range where people sit around waiting for you.
He was discharging his weapon in a safe manner......and since Osamas head is no longer available, a wood board is a safe and practical substitute. Sharp video, love the music.
@williamLongino Perhaps you could clarify something for me if u were in this video. Is this what passes as CQB training? What happened to hands and knives? I mean, is the military still training guys uppercuts to the nose, straight rights to the adam's apple, claps 2 both ears simultaneously, downward striking the base of the skull with the point of an elbow or a fist, breaking off the little bone between the rib cage w/ a punch and piercing the heart w/ it?
@doc86military ... Harmony church was leveld a few years back to make room for the armor training center and barracks... I was there shortly before they cleared what was left and got a few pics of the remaining bldg's. I hated to see it go. Lot of memories in that place!
@williamLongino Yep stand corrected been over 10 years since ive done FIBUA lol, Breaching drills, makes sense to me now ,how things change, the importance of spacing and not bunching used to always be pumped into you even when breaching,cheers im behind on the times he he thanks
@HESXENON This will sound wrong but the first person acts as a body shield. the second guy can drag the first guy back if anything bad happens and he can get the injured out of harms way quicker. Also, there are two guns down range so there is more of a chance of hitting some one plus better coverage
@SaintsSpecOps True I hadn't considered that civvies could be in there. That adds an interesting dynamic to CQB and room clearing. OT didn't explode on the AT4? What is OT? Like the actual rocket in the tube got shot and the rocket shot out but didn't detonate? Rated your comment up btw. Cheers
im not militarily inclined or anything but unless that entry method is used after first stunning the occupants of the room with a flash or stun grenade, anyone inside (on the side he doesnt look) has a huge advantage over number one. is that entry method only used after a flash bang is thrown in the room or something?
@funkyfenman .. its actually called stacking. A four man stack is much more effective at slicing the pie and dominating a room after breaching. When we were at the JRTC, the Brits were using 4 man stacks as well..
@gunnutM14 .. I think it varies by unit since there is no longer a standard retention system. Most of the ones I have seen have been the omega elite and SERPA, both blackhawk designs.
@williamLongino k thanks for you help, i just trying to figure out what i signed up for because my staff sergeant isnt really that knowledgeable when it comes to info on infantry training
What are BDUS and ACUS? This is not a question, but like, why arent they places right next to the door, when the c4 goes of.. They'll be in a hell of a lot faster.
As a combat veteran with the real 172 SBCBT Ft. Wainwright AK. I can tell you this is your regular active duty Infantry. The are performing Mount training. CQB, Room clearing. and such.
@SlayerofFiction... Were you talking about the number 4 man? Cant tell from camera angle, but he's actually covering the window! I did notice the number 3 mans weapon dip for a split second as he approached the window...
what is the guy doing with the shotgun? and also can m4 puncture body armor? barrel is so short and 5.56 has 1/2 the KE of AK round. r we really giving our troops the best rifle? just asking...
man, i envy those guys that their country provides them such training conditions, like facilities and instructors. if the army of my country had those conditions i wouldn't mind serving a few years to see a little bit of the tough site of life :) great job - it seems like lot's of fun :)
Great execution of high/low cut to clear outboard corner at 26 seconds. Good transition to handgun for greater maneuverability. The back up soldier needs tobe quicker with the crossover entry- the entry man is vulnerable for about two seconds to getting shot from behind....
@MrDrag0npunch the idea is to get your team in the room and kill everyone inside as fast as possible. the heavier armored guy is probably gonna be carryin a saw or somethin, which is a slower reaction speed than m4. it's gonna take him longer to identify a hostile target, aim, and pull the trigger with an mg. by that time they obviously know more guys are coming, so they're already either killing him or aiming at the doorway with their fingers on the triggers
The Green Berets are Special Forces (a term exclusive to the Army). The Rangers are Special Operations. The Rangers are part of the Army, and have a history predating the Marines. Rangers are meant to be a highly trained, extremely mobile, light infantry, that is always available for rapid deployment anywhere in the world, or shock troops. Their motto is "Rangers Lead the Way." The purpose of the Marines has become very similar. In the Army a tour of duty is typically 12-15 months, Marines 6-7
@HESXENON Idk if you want to watch this but it was just a little airsoft training put on by a marine that i filmed. To get to it just go to my profile and look for airsoft cqb training (or something).
in there defense, they dont look like seasoned troops, that was probably just footage of relatively new troops doing their first walk through to get the movements right before they start speeding things up.
@1xXitachiXx1 This video was probably recorded a long time ago. When we got out of Vietnam, we had mostly woodland gear, but then we went to the desert. We were not prepared for the environment and wore what we had. Now we have updated our supply though.
@FortPolkAirsoft ...its either polk or shelby!!! Thank god its mostly NG and reserves!!! Years ago I was there for JFTC and I thought I was back in the wild west! I think they still have all the orig. bldg's, it reminded me of harmony church(benning) before its demise!!! Makes me wonder, is there such a thing as a "awesome post"!!!!
@Yeahbuddymd ... I can't recall the exact weight but it is top heavy. Even without the RF and ES ( thankfully they are detachable!) it's still a tad heavy. The electronic sight just dosen't make sense to me! I'm more a fan of the traditional leaf sight, lighter and requires no batteries! Also aiming in general takes getting used to. Think it's just one of those things that they made overly complicated when there was no need!
Room clearing is the shit, room clearing while wearing the old PVS-7s...not so much. What is the army using for a retention system on the drop holsters?
@williamLongino and by left handed, I actually am left-handed myself, but in close quarter battle, you have to swap hands, if you know what i mean, if for exsample you are going to check a Right corner you use right-handed, and i Left corner, Left-handed!
I know right. Thats just for basic training too. If you take a look at the specialized shools for the army, like Ranger School, the training is harsh, and grueling, not to mention the additional training you are given once you join your unit. Go Army!
B-attle D-ress U-niform A-rmy C-ombat , etc.. And not sure what your trying to say the second part....but if they you get any closer to the door....Well lets just say it is C4.....You know..BIG BOOM...could get messy!!!
@Wiseman501 Hooah! I'm going to try out for an Army Band after a couple years in (Since they require so many years of experience). I think I've got what it takes though, and thank you. The videos I have uploaded are very out of date though, I'm MUCH better now.
@williamLongino dude,what's the title? US ARMY!! yeah, they are using m16a4, 55,6x45mm NATO, fires burst fire and has a extremely high jam rate. and they use M4A1 as you see in the video, uses the same calibre, but has full auto instead of burst, and it has the same HIGH jam rate, and don't come with that if I dont know the differance. the reason i said m16, is bacouse m16a4 and m4a1 is very simular... so just beat it!
