(NSFW) Ukrainian Snipers Teach You Why Camo Facepaint Isn't Stupid
Published 1 years ago
Footage released by a shooter-spotter team of Ukrainian snipers captures the moment a Russian Soldier accidentally reveals his own position by forgetting one of the key continuing actions of defensive operations. The Russian then promptly gets shot by the sniper team.
Your priorities of work in the defense are set in stone. There's a little acronym you can use to remember them. S.A.F.E.S.O.C. Security, automatic weapons, fields of fire, entrenching positions, supplementary and alternative fighting positions, obstacles, camouflage. These are continuous actions, that when adhered to strictly by a disciplined unit, will ensure success and minimize casualties.
Can you guess which continuing action was forgotten in this video?
If you thought camo paint was just something you did to be a motard in the field, I think this video speaks for itself. Sergeants, you have my permission to show this video to your Lance Corporals and Specialists.
