The command of the US Armed Forces spoke about training the Marines with a saw-"grinder"

Military Review continues to acquaint readers with various types of training and the characteristics of exercises in the armies of NATO countries. In this story - the joint training of the American marines and the raid forces from the 11-th Marine Expeditionary Brigade.





During the training, several groups of servicemen were given the task of overcoming various kinds of engineering obstacles and dismantling metal structures. The main tool for conducting such tests was the "grinder". Military personnel had to demonstrate the ability to cut metal sheets in a limited time.

Noteworthy is the equipment of one of the servicemen of the 11-th Naval Expeditionary Brigade of the United States Navy. In particular, you can see the multifunctional unloading vest. The helmet of the American military is equipped with electron-optical (EOB) binoculars, which allows you to actively operate in the dark. EOB is powered by a compact battery.

The command of the US Armed Forces spoke about training the Marines with a saw-"grinder"


The command explained why the special forces were forced to work with the “Bulgarian”. It is noted that conducting operations is not only using weapons and tactics of various kinds. Often you have to face difficulties that are not directly related to the battle. For example, the rescue of military personnel (including the wounded) from damaged army vehicles or units of armored vehicles.

      Just in case, they attached a "fennec" to the helmet, self-destruction of an individual in a dead-end (for a soldier's brain) situation. Surely remote control of the charge is also provided. wassat

    Well, in the hands of a fighter, a motor-grinder ... a powerful thing ... the trunk of a tank is cut only this way ... an electric grinder does not work for a long time, and even in the field where to recharge it.

              If the task is to get into the room you look at which walls, doors, windows and the place of approach and, accordingly, choose a tool.

I watched the Ministry of Emergencies for three (!) Hours bathed, as a result they squeezed it out with the box, they could not open the door itself. I then wondered if it was necessary to install such doors, so if you happen, you can regret it ..

            or a car was blown up in a mine.

            And what about the Marine with the "grinder"?
            there are many situations.

            And all these situations are in the competence of specially trained people with special equipment.
            A Marine who goes on a mission and who accidentally witnessed an emergency on the road cannot have all the rescuers' tools with him. Even the "grinder"

            On the ship, the marines will not be allowed anywhere, except for the permitted premises. He’ll climb somewhere else, break it. The captain will then go out to the feces, with all the boatswain bends he will remember all his relatives. On ships for this service there are special ones, they will fix something, they will break something, but everything is done according to the instructions. lol

Although the army will benefit from this, and after the expiration of the contract will be able to do something with their own hands.

    —- And they are also taught how to brush their teeth!
    —- And West Point Cadets — how to chew: 32 times before swallowing ...
    —- In the US Army, first the instructors of the recruit - the trigger is “decomposed into polynomial” into its component parts, and then “assembled” according to the rules of the Army.
    —- The Marine Corps is a tin.
    —- And the "flyers" and the "paddles" - the Air Force and the Navy. That is sissy. Techies.
