    Because there was a new strip club on the other side

    Is that Chicken Road..?

  3. iggy says:

    good question. why is anybody crossing the road when the LSW isnt laying down cover…?

    • C. Myngs says:

      Not every crossing of a danger area requires suppressive fire. I would recommend reviewing FM 7-8 / 3-21. Chapter 2 supplies guidance for crossing danger areas.

  4. Eric says:

    To conduct actions on the train objective.

  5. SPEC9 says:

    Because they’re misoriented and attacking the wrong objective.

  6. What happened to scrolls to the road?! No security on the near or far side. That is a major minus!

    • C. Myngs says:

      There are quite a few acceptable techniques for crossing a danger area in addition to scrolling the road. Just because you can’t see the security in this photograph doesn’t mean the soldiers forgot to deploy them. Try reviewing FM 7-8 / 3-21. Chapter Two has guidance on crossing danger areas.

  7. Wookie says:

    Because his TL said so. Move out; draw fire.

    Because that last damn Land Nav point is right f**king there, I can see it! But the cadre at this school said we can’t cross the road… You are a No-Go at this station

    To crush his enemies, see them driven before him, and to hear the lamentations of their women!
