Definitely use it, you just never know when someone is gonna get froggy and try to set you on fire. the FROG we get now is light years ahead of the stuff I used a few years ago.

I really haven’t, when we deployed one of the other soldier’s families bought everyone FR balaclavas but they were bright white and hot as hell, not the best conditions for combat ops in Iraq. Now something more suiting to the tactical situation, I would rock it in a heart beat.

I do not
Adam says:
