Default Ambush in Kunar: a host of issues

Hat tip to Free Range International for the pointer to Captains Journal for this article and the embedded video clip. (I visit FRI regularly and CJ rarely).

CJ link: http://www.captainsjournal.com/2010/...red-meter-war/

Which is based on a James Foley article:http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/a...kunar-province

FRI has some interesting graphs too:http://freerangeinternational.com/blog/?p=3609

Infantry tactics, firing beyond 500m, patrolling, ambushes and more. IMHO the video clip is one of the best ones seen by this "armchair" observer.
