Counterinsurgency in Afghanistan has been a complex and multifaceted effort involving both military operations and civilian initiatives. The main objective has been to diminish the influence of insurgent groups like the Taliban and establish a stable and secure environment. This process has required a delicate balance between kinetic operations-direct military action against insurgents-and non-kinetic measures such as building infrastructure, fostering local governance, and winning the "hearts and minds" of the Afghan population. NATO and U.S. forces have worked closely with the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) to disrupt insurgent networks, secure key areas, and reduce the insurgents' ability to operate freely. The counterinsurgency strategy has emphasized the importance of protecting the civilian population to undermine insurgent support and improve trust in the Afghan government.
When troops in Afghanistan received enemy fire, they quickly executed a series of well-rehearsed actions to establish control and neutralize the threat. Upon contact, the first priority was to seek immediate cover to minimize exposure to enemy fire. Soldiers would then establish a base of fire, often deploying machine gunners and riflemen to provide suppressive fire, which aimed to keep the enemy pinned down and unable to maneuver effectively. The unit leader would rapidly assess the situation, determining the enemy's position and strength, often using optics and communication tools to gain a clearer understanding.
The next step involved a coordinated maneuver to outflank or assault the enemy position. Fire teams would conduct bounding movements, where one team provided covering fire while the other team advanced to a new position, gradually closing the distance to the enemy. This leapfrogging method ensured continuous pressure on the insurgents while maintaining the safety of the advancing troops. Close air support and artillery could be called in to target enemy positions more precisely if the situation demanded. Throughout the firefight, communication was key, with team leaders coordinating their actions and requesting support as needed. The objective was always to overwhelm the enemy's position through superior firepower and tactical positioning, ultimately forcing the insurgents to retreat or surrender.
The 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) encompasses a wide range of roles and specialties, reflecting its versatile and rapid-response nature. Personnel within the MEU include infantry Marines, who engage directly in combat and conduct ground operations, and aviation units, which provide air support and transport. Logistics and support roles are vital, ensuring the MEU has the necessary supplies, equipment, and maintenance for sustained operations. Marines trained in medical, engineering, and intelligence functions are essential for the unit's overall effectiveness. Among the many roles, the M203 grenade launcher operator plays a critical part in infantry squads. The M203, which attaches to a standard M16 or M4 rifle, allows Marines to deliver explosive ordnance at longer ranges than hand-thrown grenades. It is used to target enemy positions, clear obstacles, and provide suppressive fire, making it a valuable asset in various combat scenarios.
Honored to have been on the channel to talk about my time professionally walking in a circle.
Haha I read this as you're saying "I'm very good at walking in a circle"
There's not enough brutally honest dudes like you, with experience, out here discussing combat-- without trying to make it sound like a team deathmatch on COD. Take care brother.
Thank you for the explanation on the whiz vs the crack. Not a veteran but I've been shot/shot at. The whiz is a sound I will never forget. I remember hearing the statement from you from a Marine buddy years before. When I heard the whiz/angry bee passing my head I realized that things were worse than I thought as I headed for cover. Last step to cover I went down from a 9mm through my thigh missing my femur by a 1/4" I later found out.
Got to cover, TQ applied and as many people as I've trained in LE and Mil to apply TQs. We tell them it will hurt. I can say it's not emphasized enough how much worse the TQ hurt than the actual bullet through 2 muscles.

Spent two years in Afghanistan as QRF with the Norwegian military. I was young and dumb and I loved it. I felt invincible. It was like the quote from Apocalypse Now, when Willard says "When I was here, I wanted to be there, when I was there all I could think of was getting back into the jungle." Hundreds of contacts, some brief and some several days long. Thinking about it now, when I am old and dumb, I could have died hundreds of times. And that shit scares me now, mostly because then I would not have been able to see my kids grow up... But hey, I lived, and I am still doing drills and teaching others to this day with the "Heimevernet" (Somewhat like the national guard, but without the budget)
Neighbor here(swede). Invinceble is the word. Spent 8 month there and even though the flags were on half bar all the time I still felt invinceble. The IED's were the biggest threat in Balk. Still shows up in my dreams sometimes. Keep doing the drills!
I dont plan on having kids myself. Wonder what would scare me if I were in your shoes. There would definitely be something. Probably be afraid for my mother but she's getting old herself.
Man....i have heard that perspective from some friends of mine who were Rangers (I was artillery). All of those young-buck thrills and firefights eventually give way to things like "20 is kind of young for my knees to be blown out from jumps", "getting shot sucks", "man, how many friends did I lose this year?", or "that IED blast was about 3 inches away from my wife and kid getting a folded flag".
So what you're saying is to go back and die in vain?
"Hundreds of contacts" - That is an enormous amount!
“The cardboards not trying to kill you. You win every engagement.” Oh how i wish that were true 😞

So what I’m gathering is that it’s important to have a bunch of buddies that all know how to move quickly and safely together. This was extremely artistic and educational.
Statistically yes, most people never get into firefights. I grew up, joined the military and left the military, joined a small county Sheriff's office never being in a firefight. That was until the 2nd week I moved into Chicago working for CPD.

Why you go from small town to big cities? Usually is other way around. Big Cities Cop moves to small town to raise family and get paid. In the NYC metro, the NYPD officers change jobs to suburbs cuz the pay is way better, and less chance of getting murdered.

oh god, takes me back. Started with cap guns around the house then turned into airsoft games with 100 people plus. The one had some national guardsmen join us. Each team had some and they were in their own squad. Wild watching them work compared to the average teen/adult trying to complete the objectives for the "operation".
Good times. I still want to know what they brought to simulate artillery sounds. Cops and firemen showed up sooooo fast and shut that down. The locals had to be so damn confused and concerned.

My best friend that I’ve known since I was 6 yrs old (I’m 33 now) went to war for us after 9/11. He’s 6 yrs older than me so I was still 12-13 yrs old when he went. He was deployed 3 times to Afghanistan and Iraq, been in many gunfights, his team was ambushed by an insurgent dressed as an Iraqi policeman where they took point blank Ak fire and his buddy was hit 6 times in the chest. Luckily they all survived, even his buddy who was hit, and luckily they dumped a full mag of 5.56 into the insurgents head as the guy went to reload his Ak. He was also in a humvee that hit a ied. He went through a lot and when he talks about the gunfights and shit he saw it really puts it into perspective of what our men go through over seas. Thank you for your service Zach and all other veterans and current service members.

Damn yall Chicago dudes in the comments going through hell
Three deployments to the Middle East as an Army Combat Medic and can confirm, I never saw anyone doing John Wick high-speed reloads. We reloaded as fast as we could, for fucking sure, but other than a mag swap on the M9 range, we never even trained on quick mag changes until the last couple years when we changed how we qualify on the M4/M16 ranges.
I was there right when the range changed.
@@VeteranWithASign What do you think of the changes to the qual range? Personally, I like it. It (at least somewhat) reflects shooting under actual combat conditions. It's certainly better than the old (aka '80s - '90s) version where SMs were taught that they had all day to shoot at stationary targets.
You mean all the videos posted on the internet by people dressed up as operators don't actually reflect the ground truth of what it's like to be in the Army?!? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you! 😂
@@joemama69448 "Well, not that shocked." - Philip J Fry
I love getting this war fighter context. It confirms to me that as a civilian we should focus on fitness and ccw capability. stack that onto rifle training for the rare occasion you need to deploy a long gun. If you’re fit and proficient with your weapon systems then troop movements can be trained quickly if the weapon fundamentals are assumed and second nature at the individual level.
Exactly this. If you're training with a rifle, you're training for an insurgency/gureilla scenario. The likelihood of you having to use your ccw is miles above the likelihood of needing a rifle.
It sure seems like.... in order of importance......Lotsa cardio/endurance training, becoming a ninja with your side arm, then PDW/Rifle skills are next. But more important it seems is learning how to use your surroundings and resources to our advantages. How to make a splint out of debris and a belt, or a generator out of a bicycle at your patrol base, etc. In a SHTF situation
Yea for a while people were really pushing that whole "handguns are just for fighting your way to your rifle" when in reality if you're taking a dump or getting gas... that rifle might not be there to fight towards. Handguns are actually pretty OK at stopping bad guys, just takes a lot of dedication.
Yes…. Fitness is soo important. And here in the “civilized “ world it is many times more likely you will be in a gas station robbery, than red dawn.
@@sandozman6085 what if...just hear me out now....they invade specifically TO rob gas stations? Ehhhh? Ehhhhh?? 😯
Then every American would need both fitness and wild CQF skills.
IMAGINE... All of us just running from gas station to station like a shitty game of Call of Duty DMZ or something.
Just breakneck sprint into mad flat range ninja rampages, guns blazing like an asshole, only to sprint off to the next flat range Olympics stage. 🤠
You'll need the fitness to run from place to place AND fight at evry turn. ......Right?
Wow um.... Maybe I shouldn't have had that 4th cookie after all...😶🌫️😳😯🫨🤯🫠
Man, the airsoft OPFOR will never know what hit them when I call in that CAS
My first firefight lasted 20 minutes, but actually ended in 2 seconds.
It was one dude in a second story window with a belt-fed.
SSGT whipped his rifle over and snapped a few rounds in the window before hitting cover with the rest of us.
The weapon was still firing out the window really sporadically and I just remember SSGT calmly sighing and saying, "Huh..."
When he looked over and we made eye contact SSGt said, "I'm pretty sure I got him. Lets just wait for him to bleed."
The 2nd team behind us had already backtracked and cleared the building.
Unbeknownst to us, both of SSGt's rounds removed the combatant's skullcap and his twitching corpse was jamming the trigger down...
First firefight. It was just one dude. And he didn't even know how he died. Spent 20 minutes giving SSGT sh*t (*rounds flying everywhere* "eH, i ThInK i GoT eM" "Don't worry SSGT "Got 'em" "Hey SSGT, I heard you got em" *cut to us seeing a capless skull and mush with SSGT* "Oh sh*t... You actually got him. My bad, SSGT.") and clearing the surround area while we waited.
Gnarly..
Hilarious 😂
Keep in mind that for us citizen/militia/minutemen here at home in the USA, we are more like the Taliban or Iraqi partisans than US forces abroad. We LIVE here every day, we know the neighbors, and community (to some degree), we know the terrain, the weather, etc. We don't really need to carry a week's worth, or several days, of food and water, all kinds of sustainment gear, etc.
Bingo 🤙🏻
But it's the same thing for our military. It's their home turf too. They don't have to fly their resources across the ocean or deal with unknown terrain like they did in Afghanistan. The majority of US soldiers also grew up in the US.
@@Nach0s187Yeah, but that makes them more vulnerable, not less, and there's also the fact that if we get into a revolution or civil war, all of our foreign adversaries will go on the warpath, so the military will be badly overstretched. Domestic units will probably have to spend most of their time doing force protection and cordoning off the cities, which will be complete hellholes. People out on the countryside will probably be mostly unbothered by them.
@@Nach0s187 Unlike us, military personnel cannot take off their uniforms and kit and blend in. They HAVE to work in full gear and go back to base or wherever they are stationed/garrisoned. We just carry what we need when we need it, then strip it off and go full civy back to our homes. Like the Taliban or Iraqi partisans.

@@MikeBarnesActual until a tree branch says no
Inspect not expect
@MikeBarnesActual to an extent but generally that is said about handguns that are going to be holstered 99% of the time they spend loaded and in motion. That way the trigger is shielded but even then they usually have a bladed trigger etc. If they have no toggled safety.
There's a video called "rules of a gunfight" by Sgt. Terrence Popp and one that I always remembered is, "If it looks cool in a movie or video game, it will get you killed in real life." LOL!

I mean a SF team went to the mountains and found the tomb of Gilgamesh. This was one of the FIRST things we did when we went to Iraq. That was the weapon of mass destruction.

Joined the ALICE clip army as an 11B in '03, deployed to Mosul from aug '05 to sept '06, extended to Baghdad until Dec '06. Made small arms contact at least once a month the entire time, though daily was more like it, average contact duration would be about a half hour before they got got or ran off. Started off against the last of Saddam's boys who were pretty organized, ended leaving the place completely aflame in a civil war.
My biggest pet peeve with the entirety american gun culture is sticking your muzzle on the other side of cover. That's how you get disarmed by someone simply grabbing it from the other side. 18 year old me learned that at MOUT McKenna, and 20 year old me saw it play out in a real fight in Mosul. I despise the v-tac barrier...you simply will not get me to "train" with one, full stop. It's just as stupid as "stand in the middle of a room and engage multiple supposed threats from a stationary uncovered position" mass shooter training drill every competitive shooter loves.
Dude the last thing you said really resonates with me. UA-cam LARPers like Lucas from Trex Arms is the fucking worst about it. No one is running from spot to spot in an open clearing with no cover engaging targets lol

This guy so accurately describes what it was like to be light Infantry in Afghanistan, mid-late 2000's. Our average hump outside of the COP on patrol was at least 4 clicks.

Watch ‘Way of the Gun’ (Dir. Christopher McQuarrie, 2000)
If you want to see a great example of civilians using bounding overwatch, shoot-move-communicate type stuff. 2 man team covering each other. Lots of suppressing fire. The fighting is mostly handgun and shotgun stuff as it is a neo-western. Some decent room clearing as well. Great fucking movie.
really enjoyed this episode, i like how it was an interview and how down to earth it was, not just focusing on some maneuver's shooting at dirt but actually getting to hear his real life experience
In the old military doctrine of Germany there is a sentence i will never forget:
"Wer schneller schießt und besser trifft, gewinnt den Feuerkampf"
"The side that shoots more often and more accuratly, will win the firefight"
German wisdom right there 😂
I like this guy. Super humble, he knows what he knows and he knows what he doesn’t know.
Very good breakdown of what an actual firefight is like, its nice to have a break from the high speed low drag flat range stuff as they pointed out, its important to learn of course but its always good to hear from someone whos been there and done that.
I'm not a combat veteran, but I suspect there's a lot more hiding in combat than the flat range would lead you to believe.

1 Army deployment to Iraq ('07, siege of Sadr City among other fights in our AOC) and 5 as a Contractor also to Iraq, it is definitely a different ball game than the 'stan, for us the mixed heavy urban theater and open area fighting (especially further west and in Kurdistan/ northern areas) really puts things in perspective. NTC at Irwin was good training, but still only prepares you so much for that environment and what you end up going up against in heavily adaptive nature. The battlespace is a 360 degree gut check.
Well said. TYFYS.
@@VeteranWithASign ❤🍻 you as well bro much love
Thanks for your input Zack.
I do what I can.
Great vid admin!
7:30 thank you @VeteranWithASign for providing video evidence of someone actually using the forward assist .. Neat
I live to serve.
What is a firefight? It starts with a gay proposition.

Excellent video! My Dad was a soldier in WW2 and he told me a lot about his experiences on the Western Front, especially CQB.
Great video thank you!🙏
I'd say hes off on the shooting through car windows. But thats the difference in military tactics vs civilian/leo tactics.
Id agree, In LE we did some VQCB training and shooting out of the windshield was part of it. I should have chimed in but my brain may have been cooked at that point.
@AdministrativeResults agreed, same. Our agency trains it all the time. Lol, Las Vegas Metropolitan has proved it's point . But still loved the video and homie's valuable experience and insights are super valuable. Love his humility and humor. Appreciate you, sir. 2 Tim 2:3-4 🤙
I gotta be honest admin.. I’m not on the toilet. I exclusively watch these videos while I’m driving to and from work. It keeps me from taking out my autistic rage on minivans camping the fast lane.
Bro don't be that guy watching shit while driving 😩 podcast something!

@@Jrob992 well played. Someone has to be the catalyst in a story arc I guess.
This would be great to revisit with a Green Beret. Unconventional warfare is more likely what would happen in the US. Combat vets training a small local force of defenders. Literally what their forte is. Small teams, troop and team management... just an idea.
This could be arranged most likely
FYI kids an hr long firefight is an eternity. I’ve been in over a hundo & the vast majority were under 5 minutes
Very true.
Would love more of this kind of content. Learning actual use cases and context, tactics as well as skills.
Nice to have some fellow infantry speak on this channel
Dude just said the truth. Combat is not always the dynamic ninja shit people show us. It's more like fat man stand up paintball with maybe a but more prone and cover.
I will always tell the truth. I’m too lazy to lie.
A couple is taking a walk in Berlin
Suddenly, it starts raining.
The two start arguing over whether it's raining or hailing.
"Let's ask that Communist officer over there! He might know if it's raining!", the wife suggests.
They go up to him and notice that his nametag says that his name is Olf. "It's raining, dummies, now go away!", he says.
The wife, who said it was raining, smirks and tells her husband:
"Rude Olf the Red knows rain, dear!"
*slow clap*

I love your breakdowns and analysis of war and or firearms oriented movies and shows, it would be interesting to see a series with not only your opinion as a gun nerd but also to have a guest like Zack on to compare opinions.
Quite edifying. Thank you for your service, young man.
