Reply #24: Hold 'em and squeeze 'em.... [View All]

Dark humor: My old Gunnery Sergeant would be fuming over this story. He would have screamed at us to "hold 'em and squeeze 'em... one shot = one kill.."

Serious point: If US troops are using this much ammunition, it means they are using the "spray and pray" method of shooting. That is, when someone fires at you, open up with everything you've got, in every direction. The video coming out of Iraq shows a shitload of 50 cal and other automatic weapons.

Perhaps that's why the US has killed so many innocent Iraqis.
