HammyUK:

I had to carry the PRC 320 as we was left far in enemy lines we had to have long range kit(self sufficient) funny how we used old school HF though [rofl] [rofl] [rofl]
HammyUK:
still hard to beat for power/range. the "little" stuff is ok but fragile as fuck.
NI was one of the worst. at least the ragheads are easy to spot [whistle]
GRNINJA:

one of the reasons I went in the army and got into war shit was cause of films like platoon :icon_thumleft:

Too right, Hamburger Hill sold it for me. Of course I then joined the signals.....58 pattern webbing and comfy 110 FFRs not quite the trenches.... :roll:

I was only uncomfortable for the first year of service I then went Recce platoon and we used WMIK's so was relatively comfy.... I just had to carry a fuck load of weight... Being a signal gunner on a WMIK sucks especially when you have to carry section kit like lions sights or spy glass including CWS and PNG's along with you GPMG and your personal weapon :roll:

We just mainly carried sandwiches, and an enormous sense of wellbeing....... :emb:
