Are special forces the worst thing to happen to western militaries?
In the scope of out comes of wars, special forces impact is almost nothing, yet politicians see their use as a way of saying they are contributing to fighting some cause without political fallout while they achieve nothing in a pragmatic sense
large infantry and indiscriminate bombing are the only methods that can win wars, proliferation of special forces contributes to the constant quagmires of modern warfare conducted by the west
I agree, OP. Russian spetznaz are completely ineffective.

Why did you join a combat role?
>>30079863
i didn't I sit at home and smoke camels all day
>>30079863
To kill
and that is ok.
>>30079888
Is it wrong that I want to experience that?
Well /k/, with all the controversy around it, did Lee Harvey Oswald kill JFK, or did another shooter have to be involved?
>>30079578
Lee Harvey Oswald pulled the trigger on the Carcano that killed JFK.
No, his Secret Service agent did not trip on a banana peel and blow JFK's brains out by accident.
No, LBJ didn't order him bumped off.
No, the MiC didn't put a hit on him.
>>30079578
The world's a chaotic and random place.
I don't think a lot of people want to believe that one pissed off guy can off the most powerful man on earth.
Oswald did it.
Due to the seating arrangement inside the vehicle and the positioning of the victims' bodies prior to the shots being fired, as well as the angle from which those shots were fired, Oswald was able to hit both targets simultaneously from his position.
Anybody who talks about the necessity of a second shooter or goes back to that 'magic bullet' horseshit is somebody whose opinion should be discounted on the spot.
It's funny to see people on 4chan attempting to prove that the whole thing was a conspiracy. They find it hard...

Was there something in his hand or am I seeing stuff?
Always loaded and near the bed.
>>30079194
He pulled out an airsoft or some other realistic looking replica firearm and subsequently got shot to death.
>>30079186
I just keep two loaded, my CZ75 and mossberg 500.
Don't really care enough to keep the other five loaded.

That's what I've read elsewhere as well, so I guess I'll just go for it. I'm ordering two anyway so maybe I'll get one blem one non-blem, or just use the better of the two blems for my better build.

Welp guess there goes the dixie flags to look more mainstream.
That's half the fun of /k/ meets anyways.
So I spoked to a recruiter today and it looks like OCS is looking good for me. With my PT scores and and the content of my academic pedigree they are pretty confident I will do well enough to branch however I want (I want infantry). However, I am still considering the Marine Corps and going OCC with them instead. From what I understand if someone is deemed "uniquely qualified" for a certain MOS that they can get preference and branch that way. I would want to go ground intelligence if I were to go the Marine route because I am pretty sure I could make a great case...

Fair, unless I come across another pair of XSAPI's in medium I'll probably buy some Line of Fire plates from a local company up here, they're insanely light.
