the biggest mistake of the American army during the Vietnam War, there are several factors, first, the US military is too serious for a war where the real enemy, they are farmers, in the situation poverty, propaganda of heroic communist awareness, ... to this day the concept of socialism is still very vague, statements like parrot practicing speaking without understanding and understanding themselves. what, say so many things that do then dodged, the disease is always emulating 100% good performance, no one is bad, no one opposes ..... a lie ..... weak The second factor, Americans do not see clearly Vietnam, a country with a culture close to China, although it has been a French colony for 100 years but China's influence is great.

My co worker and I were just talking about his grandfather's service in Vietnam. He had a new CO who was all pumped up to take his platoon down a trail to attack an enemy position. My buddies grandfather refused to go citing the issues the trail could present. The CO said he was going to reprimand him for his refusal and continued down the trail. Long story short, that CO never got to file those reprimand papers, and only my co workers grandfather and one other survived. Lesson I learned from that, attackers like to capitalize on human laziness, and trails are kill zones.

The first rule is critical. My grandpa was in Merrill's Marauders in WWII and he said if a supply air drop landed too far away they wouldn't even try to retrieve it because they knew Japanese patrols would set an ambush near it. Following rule 1 helped bring him home from the war.

In the Army I've always been taught to immediately get on line and assault through a near ambush. Not to get down and throw hand grenades. This is the first time I've heard that tbh. I prefer this method to reacting to a near ambush. Its quick, violent, and greatly increases your chances of survival, if you stop or pause to fumble with some hand grenades you're gonna get smoked.

agreed, we do not face a foreign enemy. 1776

Pay attention people and listen carefully to this guy. There is a strong chance we might end up having to utilize the tactics Brent teaches, in our own country. I hope we don't, but the enemy never asks us if we want to fight or not. Christ be with all of you.

The Army infantry platoon and squad operations pamphlet AR 7-8 has react to contact as it's second battle drill. Squad/platoon attack is battle drill #1. Obviously you want to know what you are doing before reacting to contact. However it always, still to this day, as counterintuitive. Crossing a linear danger as you explained it was good. Though I would have added crossing with a crew served weapon as many leaders make the mistake of not protecting the gun and thinking that it can perform the same movements as riflemen. The react to a near ambush in the Army is like you said. We throw frags and then assault but I always disagreed with that. Though we used the SDR rule... Suppress, Deploy, Report for any contact. I taught my guys to report through suppression instead of yelling out the three D's... Direction, Distance, Description. My thought process was I could follow a team leaders tracer rounds to the objective/enemy and quickly be assertane the enemies position and composition based upon the fire we would be taking. Using the MDMP and 3-1 rule to either assault through a LPOP or hasty small team ambush or to bring the squad generally abreast and become a support by fire element while calling the platoon leader up with the 240Bs to bring the hate. I would attack a four man fire team if they were in a hasty attack or ambush but would hesitate to attempt to fight through a dug in enemy.

One note, when looking for cover in terrain features like the depression, you could still stand a chance Mr Charles would have thought of it first and placed a surprise in it for you. If it looks to good to be true, it just might be. All this is frequently happening in fast motion with unimaginable sounds. Also, when getting into place for an ambush, see if you have a moment to improve your position so the opposition doesn't see a shape that looks familiar (like a head, helmet, MG, bright hand with weapon in front of a bush, etc.). Great video. Semper Fi

"Every weapon you have, they have a respective equivalent". Great assumption to make. Also, if you have fire power you should expect returned fire. Something I continuously tell my friends who dont always listen. Dont always think on the offensive, get med supplies, armor, gas masks etc. Be ready to DEFEND yourself.

Great stuff @Brent0331 ! I appreciate all the effort you and your team pour into making these educationals

Thank you!

I just save the game every few seconds when I think danger is near so I can reload and ambush the ambushers

I’ve always enjoyed learning about American Military History. Now I get a chance to learn how maneuvers are executed. Thanks for sharing what typically only about 1% of Americans are privy to. Keep ‘em coming. I subscribed.

Great guide with sound tactical advice, as always. Thanks for putting this out the for free to The People 8:11 That reminds me of one of my favorite moments in an old CoD game for original XboX, playing the Red Army. Fresh off the boats crossing the Volga and armed right at the harbor, you start moving to the attack and from behind the commissar shouts "Cowards and traitors will be shot!" and walks up the line herding people (half of whom got rifles, half of whom got clips for a Mosin-Nagant, you got a clip - probably live longer!) uphill towards the Germans. If you fall behind, the commissar will give the player a game over with his Tokarev, which I approve of. The NPC you first meet behind some cover has just told you a plan to flank the machine guns, as the commissar comes close. He says "Hold on, comrade, I have to take care of the commissar first" and just casually snipes him at close range, then says "follow me" and you proceed to flank the machine gun, and the game goes on. It was a bad game, but I loved that part... "I vote we frag this commander."-StarCraft Marine

Could you you do a video on breaking contact by using a peel.

A wedge formation and staying in the woods and off the trails would solve a lot of those problems, or if you have to stay on the trail skirmishers out 25 meters ahead and on both sides would allow for faster detection of the enemy

Always pertinent and outstanding videos. Gotta love the USMC... always forward.

Really great to have you back there Brent,..You're definitely the kind of leader that would do his damn best in keeping his people alive, awsome class bud !!!

Man, make sure you teach the radioman yelling a “20 contact, (leg no.), wait out” automatically, otherwise nobody knows what happens in hq. no calvary will show up when the shtf. Here is our discussion on immediate action. I would say it can be summarize in Spraying Decisions Flanking Spraying An eye for an eye, spray them back, every unit have their own drills, it is not up to me to say which one is better, but one thing is always right, return fire, gain the most important 1 minute. Everyone shoot at gun smoke on the opposite side, except 2 person, the commander and radioman, they have their own job Decisions The mighty no brain officer had to decide whether it is a fight or flee in seconds, there is no right or wrong of this decision either way, because nobody knows and nobody have no information, therefore nobody shall be blame. The only thing a mighty no brain officer get blame is to make no decision. Flanking Usually the 2ic will be in the end of the patrol, there are only 2 choices, flanking drill or withdraw drill, as soon as he heard the yelling from the commander, do it! There's only 1 thing to consider, this is an ambush, you are already bunch up in column and pin down at the front, don't you think your enemy will let you have a nice easy day? Cutoff party, mines, rpg, mg post, you name it. They are all waiting for you in the most convenient access path. What are you going to do? I would say, an anti ambush drill is one of the most important drill for any 2ic to handle. Mvp pf the day.

Brent thanks always for the training..... We all appreciate it..... Stay frosty my friend..... Stay alert ........______

A good refresher in small unit infantry tactics. My last unit was a LRS detachment and we constantly practiced fundamentals like this. I credit that training for getting all of my soldiers home in one piece.

I love this channel and especially this video just found it. Gnar to the max

Damn good video!

Your videos are extremely insightful. Thank you.

Can't speak for marines, but as an army grunt i think that popping smoke affords you that moment to assess, establish a volume of fire which are key to making an effective response. For example, in my limited deployment experience(1 pump chump), the Taliban would lace i.e.d's in the dead-space between their ambush position and the kill zone- so bounding became quite the task because they were effectively maiming or killing our dudes. The ttp then became: always patrol with overwatch (usually a sniper and a handheld 60mm mortarman), pop smoke and hold in place until we can drop ordinance...the unlucky suckers in the killzone basically just become support by fire.
