thats cool as ****!!!!!!!!!!!!! whats even more amazing is what we are watchin is through nvg's (night vision goggles) or a nvg equiped camera. its probably 100% dark out there. without nvg's you wouldnt be able to see that green lazer light. also not the IR strobe on the friendly soldiers helmet, to prevent FF.

I remember seeing some show on the History Channel about Desert Storm. They showed a video of some Iraqi truck getting hit by a wave of bullets. It was so weird seeing the wall of bullets moving across the truck ripping it to shreds. Afterwards it looked like it went through a blender because pieces of it were all over the place........ and they didn't even use any explosives on it!

Our military is awesome.

Damn. That brought back a few Memories. I wish I would have taken Video of the Show of Force engagements we had back on Spiecher. Those were even better. We had alot more kill zone area to play with.

Imagine this:

1 AC-130 Specter Gun ship
6 AH-64 Apaches
2 lines (1 5 bradles 5 A1 Abrams)
the whole perimeter opening up
Mortors

Oh, 2 500lbs drops from an F-16



And to finish it up, 4 A-10 Stiffing runs. DAMN. Almost makes we want to go back to watch the fireworks.

We had some reps from Pelican flashlight come out and give us a demonstration of alot of their low light/no light equipment. Those little strobies are totally invisible to the naked eye...but in a dark room, they almost saturate the NVG's~
