mtnrgr Posted September 22, 2001 Share Posted September 22, 2001 I'm planning a major expedition to the Hindu Kush soon. The best in top of the line equipment to include an A.L.C.E. pack, Jungle Boots, L.C.E., all kinds of expense and Hi-tech gadgetry, and the new Extreme Cold Weather System(to include GTX pants and top, long underwear, and fleece jacket and bibs) will be provided by the sponser. Goals of Hindu Kush 01-02 are to explore new routes in this very romote and wild country, and to provide targeting assistance for smart bombs. Peaks up to 20,000 ft will be encountered. Objective dangers will be 7.62x39mm projectiles and fanatical locals. Long, steep approach hikes will be incountered. Experence on high mountains (over 3,000 ft) a plus. Any glacier travel experence an atomatic slot will be secured. (All climbing equipment must be provided by individual.) Contact me at GOARMY.com or visit your local recruiter. Ask for the Hindu Kush option. Remeber there is 212 ways to be a soldier and a climbers is one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan_Harris Posted September 24, 2001 Share Posted September 24, 2001 Just got back from an Eastern Sierra fishing trip. Passed the USMC Mountain Warfare Training Center. All kinds of people out in camo with M-16s, and what looked like BD bod harnesses and red petzel helmets. They were all over the rock in the area. Also a whole campground full of green, light weight tents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon Posted September 24, 2001 Share Posted September 24, 2001 Tim and I saw some guys in the Icicle on Tuesday and Wednesday. Those guys are fucking hardcore, it was so freaking hot and they had their full dark camo, not to mention the amount of gear they were carrying.

Dru Posted October 16, 2001 Share Posted October 16, 2001 Please be careful what you post, if bin Laden reads some of these posts he might have an aneurysm and die laughing, thus depriving Special Forces of the glory of capturing and publically flogging him in front of live TV audience.

whillans Posted October 16, 2001 Share Posted October 16, 2001 Discount all words from Fort Canada until they commit at least a regiment of paras to the fight....they'll be at least as well trained and tough as a company of cooks or nurses at Ft Benning.
