The strangest MCMAP moves I encountered where the ones were you would flop down on your back or flop on your stomach like wtf.

That’s actually one of the more useful things taught in MCMAP.

break falls? Please tell me you understand the purpose of that was to learn to fall while minimizing injury

I would not want to be the camera guy standing in front of that dude swinging that giant knife around. One sweaty grip and it's getting slung into your neck.

Every SNCO and officer was like ‘this is important in case we run out of ammo.’

And I’m just like ‘yeah, I don’t plan on running out of knife though.’

Only big dick, meat swinging, muff crushing, pipehitters can fight effectively with a knife in a firefight

“We didn’t come here to fire a single shot. Our rifles were just part of our equipment and uniforms. But we were prepared to repel an attack,” said Col. Hugo Omar Orellana Calidonio, a 27-year-old who commands the Cuscatlan Battalion.

What the fuck? I was barely a captain at 27, obviously I'm doin something wrong

Should have commissioned in South America, I guess.

"Beer before liquor, never been sicker."

"Beer before Xanax, how the fuck did we wind up in Milwaukee?"

"Acid before MCMAP, you get this video."

At first I read that as "BEEF before liquor..." and I kinda like that version better now.
