[Special warfare writing material album] Part of Eleven Pioneers(1/5)
The arrangement of various traps, booby traps and minefields is inevitable in a war zone, and one of the key points of the mission of the vanguard soldier is
Do not bring troops into these areas, or if unfortunately you have entered such areas, how to clear a path?
Safe passage to facilitate the rapid passage of troops. This refers to minefields or high-tech ones such as guide ropes. If it is bamboo
To trap native traps such as Jianjian Mountain, we must find ways to eliminate or render them ineffective.
Among the traps, many are improved, enlarged or directly applied traps for trapping large beasts, and these traps are usually
It is definitely a fatal challenge for those who are not designers or those who do not know the reason. This is also the case for many special operations forces from various countries.
One of the reasons why Duojianbing is a member of a tribe living in a relatively primitive living environment. Of course, it is also because of this.
The members of these tribes not only have extraordinary physical strength and endurance, which is definitely not comparable to that of chickens raised in ordinary cities.
The main reasons are cultural factors, an environment with relatively primitive living conditions, and the psychological self-construction and will of its members.
Their perseverance, as well as the sense of honor and responsibility given by tradition, allowed these tribal members to become special forces commanders
The favorite and best candidate among them, the best and most famous one is the Kirk Mountains under the British Confederation??
There is no need to go into details about the deeds of the Corps, but one thing cannot be ignored. In the colonial era, African tribes
Due to the lack of information circulation and the tradition of bravery and bravery, the imperial troops who went there often could not suppress them with their prestige, but had to use their reputation to suppress them.
To show their strength, during this period, a certain mission was carried out by the Khark Mountain Corps. However, the battle was also bloody.
, both sides suffered heavy casualties. After the fight, the British army ran out of ammunition and reinforcements, and the two sides engaged in a final desperate physical battle. Africa
The tribes used spears, poisonous arrows, knives, clubs and axes to fight against the Khark Mountains?
The regiment was outnumbered by more than 1 to 13, and the dog-leg sword also showed amazing combat effectiveness in this battle.
At the end of the battle, in a regiment of more than 700 people, only less than a few warriors were still alive, while more than ten warriors were gathered together.
The African warriors of each tribe also suffered all casualties and could no longer resist the invasion of colonists. From then on, all the African warriors
The African tribes all learned about the name and combat power of the Khark Mountain Corps. From then on, the British Empire began to dominate Africa.
The reputation is at its peak, because everyone is really unwilling to confront the Khark Mountain Corps. Finally, we must mention
Yes, the British Empire posthumously awarded more than a thousand medals of various kinds to this regiment in the Khark Mountains, including the highest honor.
There are seven Victoria Cross medals, four of which are awarded to soldiers. This is the only time in British history that both
The record of awarding so many highest honors to the lowest-ranking soldiers is not only unprecedented, I believe it will also be the last time.
Equipment and training
The main tasks of the vanguard were mentioned earlier. In order to perform the tasks of the vanguard, their equipment should not be too heavy and cumbersome.
Necessity and portability are the main principles, while the placement is based on convenience and convenience. This principle applies at the same time.
For most members of the special operations team and all members of the offensive force, but generally speaking, in terms of the establishment of the US military, the vanguard
The equipment usually includes personal basic weapons (including pistols) and three days of outdoor survival equipment, night vision goggles, and radios.

The country's special operations personnel have the same love for ropes and knives. This is also the case for almost all special operations groups.
However, as far as the current special operations forces of various countries are concerned, there are two basic equipments that are not explicitly stipulated, but they are also
Almost 10% of the standard equipment is a watch and a small tool pliers or a compound type that can operate normally in various harsh environments.
Tool set, among which the priority is given to analog watches, which are luminous, waterproof, shock-resistant, lightweight, and have the best price.
Too high. During the Vietnam War, green hats liked to wear stainless steel watches or observatory series watches produced by the Swiss Rolex factory.
The stainless steel models in the series all met the aforementioned conditions except for the price. However, the US military later suggested sending all
The US military stationed in Vietnam switched to the army watches issued by the US military, which were powered by springs and needed to be wound at least once every 48 hours.

The U.S. Special Forces have many different options. The most famous SEALs have completed basic SEALB/UDT training.
After training, you will be given a Tudor stainless steel diving watch, but if you advance to a variety of mixed blasting training (we will
(will be mentioned in Chapter 1), usually the instructor will suggest to use the Voyager series automatic winding watch from Oriental Watch for no other reason.

Got home.
As for tool pliers or multi-tools (Multi-Tools), they combine the functions of Swiss knives with more diverse functions and the rugged military style.
Tools have many uses. They are mainly used for temporary and emergency bomb disposal operations in the field. Therefore, many people also call them
It is called blasting pliers or blasting shears. There are four common domestic brands, all of which are made in the United States. They are LEATHERMAN.

The multi-purpose bayonet and field survival tool set produced and distributed by L85/86 has also been classified as a field tool set. Of course,
Well, the Swiss Victorinox knife factory (Victorinox), the founder of the industry, naturally has the same product consultants. The above are all
There have been mass productions for civilian use, and there are many arsenals that are specially produced for the use of special forces and not for external or civilian use.
There are also many products produced. For example, the BOKER factory in Germany produces a series of 19 types especially for GSG-9.

It is very sad that this arsenal, founded in 1807, was converted into the production of machine tools in order to survive.)
The multi-purpose folding knives produced for use by members of the Soviet special forces are out-and-out assassination weapons. Mentioning these
The purpose of the tool is actually only one, because one of the tasks of the vanguard is to remove all obstacles on the road, including

The training and development courses for top soldiers can be roughly divided into two categories: basic training and professional training, each of which includes its own
There are several different subjects and progressions. Basic training includes PT, 3M (Mapreading, Memory, Mount

Individual/Group Tactical Training Courses
For any team, the overall combat plan from planning to formulation may involve intelligence personnel and intelligence personnel.
It is formed through the cooperation of combat staff. But the first one to face the on-site situation and make first-hand judgment must be the leading soldier.
, the second person will be the squad commander. Therefore, the squad’s top soldiers may have better tactical cultivation and quality.
As good as a team leader or combat staff sergeant, maybe even better, the first thing the lead soldier does when he arrives on the scene.
It is to determine the deployment position of the team, including the fire sector of the fire team, the free hunting area, and the selection of attack/evacuation routes.
Determine the ambush location and report it to the commander and combat officers for reference. Usually there is more than 80% chance that it will be adopted.
Generally speaking, vanguards do not directly participate in attack operations. Like snipers and commanders, they are involved in the team's attack missions.
In the assignment, these three people are the most basic reserve team, and the vanguard soldiers are usually assigned to the ambush team on the ambush route.
Commander, carry out the mission of annihilating the enemy's remnants. As for those who are alone and run away, that is the sniper's business.
In addition to being familiar with and using the tactics commonly used by the team, one must not neglect the tactics and habits of the enemy.
