I play airsoft in Utah with a team/group called Black Thorn Airsoft; a few years ago we used to go up to Camp Williams Army National Guard Base and play airsoft on their MOUT facility, FOB, and a forested area on the outskirts of the base. There were about 10 of us that were able to go up there and on the third time out we were posing as an OPFOR for a very large number of National guard soldier, (All newer guys that had not gone to basic training or just got back from basic) There were four platoons of the guardsmen and they sent one platoon into the field at a time and our team "BTA" had to set up an ambush and try and take them all out, while the guardsmen had to quickly come up with a plan and work as a team to take us out, the OPFOR. We destroyed them pretty badly haha, but it was an awesome experience, one I will never forget, Sgt. Day, the man who was running the whole thing thanked us afterwords and had all the guardsmen thank us, we then thanked all of them for their service and for the awesome experience. Sgt. Day then presented us with an American flag patch, and a dog tag that said Alpha Company and had their insignia on it, and on the back side it said the Army values.
For the first time seeing this video 13 years later, I still remember the slipknot song "wait and bleed" was in place of drowning pool's "sinner." Great CQB video still to this date!!!
i dont understand how this stuff works, if i was sat in the room with a m249 aimed at the door, and a stream of people checked the room while moving for 0.5sec before the next person moves in, they would all get wasted unless 100% of room clearence use a flashbang
@funkyfenman .. its actually called stacking. A four man stack is much more effective at slicing the pie and dominating a room after breaching. When we were at the JRTC, the Brits were using 4 man stacks as well..
@HESXENON This will sound wrong but the first person acts as a body shield. the second guy can drag the first guy back if anything bad happens and he can get the injured out of harms way quicker. Also, there are two guns down range so there is more of a chance of hitting some one plus better coverage
I've never been in a house where someone sat in a corner with an M249 waiting fos us. Hard Knock raids we did with Flash Bangs and after the first rounds alerted the village we were there we used G charges for alternate breech points. MOUT works when done properly, but its not like paintball at your local range where people sit around waiting for you.
@adamobarca were changing to a higher caliber rifle. some troops including now days all of our army rangers are equipped with the SCAR H. the marines and special forces like the REC 7 and other custom weapons
@williamLongino Yep stand corrected been over 10 years since ive done FIBUA lol, Breaching drills, makes sense to me now ,how things change, the importance of spacing and not bunching used to always be pumped into you even when breaching,cheers im behind on the times he he thanks
@1xXitachiXx1 This video was probably recorded a long time ago. When we got out of Vietnam, we had mostly woodland gear, but then we went to the desert. We were not prepared for the environment and wore what we had. Now we have updated our supply though.
Cqb training is fun! I'm a tanker so I don't do it that much but because I'm in the 3ID I have go go through some infantry training, and it's fun sometimes! :)
Great execution of high/low cut to clear outboard corner at 26 seconds. Good transition to handgun for greater maneuverability. The back up soldier needs tobe quicker with the crossover entry- the entry man is vulnerable for about two seconds to getting shot from behind....
in there defense, they dont look like seasoned troops, that was probably just footage of relatively new troops doing their first walk through to get the movements right before they start speeding things up.
@williamLongino and by left handed, I actually am left-handed myself, but in close quarter battle, you have to swap hands, if you know what i mean, if for exsample you are going to check a Right corner you use right-handed, and i Left corner, Left-handed!
He was discharging his weapon in a safe manner......and since Osamas head is no longer available, a wood board is a safe and practical substitute. Sharp video, love the music.
@pal165 ..... Well yes, that is true. In this case an explosive charge was used to breech the door. I'm gonna go way outside the box here and say their attn. would not have been focused on the window as much as it would have been the door that was just blown off its hinges!
I know right. Thats just for basic training too. If you take a look at the specialized shools for the army, like Ranger School, the training is harsh, and grueling, not to mention the additional training you are given once you join your unit. Go Army!
@doc86military ... Harmony church was leveld a few years back to make room for the armor training center and barracks... I was there shortly before they cleared what was left and got a few pics of the remaining bldg's. I hated to see it go. Lot of memories in that place!
@gunnutM14 .. I think it varies by unit since there is no longer a standard retention system. Most of the ones I have seen have been the omega elite and SERPA, both blackhawk designs.
@Wiseman501 Hooah! I'm going to try out for an Army Band after a couple years in (Since they require so many years of experience). I think I've got what it takes though, and thank you. The videos I have uploaded are very out of date though, I'm MUCH better now.
B-attle D-ress U-niform A-rmy C-ombat , etc.. And not sure what your trying to say the second part....but if they you get any closer to the door....Well lets just say it is C4.....You know..BIG BOOM...could get messy!!!
@CodenameQuincy ... You're not missing anything. They took something that was already easy to use with little time on the range, pimped it out with shit you really don't need and called it better... Range finder and new electronic sight system. Sure it will let you put it 100 yds down range if that's what you want.... Doesn't do shit though for lateral drift. That and constantly having to re-set the sight... (If it aint broke, don't fix it)
@Artjom117: This Helmets are maybe 1cm thick, they would be penetrated by an AK, easily. We use helmets, otherwise stones & shit, would be flying at our jarheads.
@MrDrag0npunch the idea is to get your team in the room and kill everyone inside as fast as possible. the heavier armored guy is probably gonna be carryin a saw or somethin, which is a slower reaction speed than m4. it's gonna take him longer to identify a hostile target, aim, and pull the trigger with an mg. by that time they obviously know more guys are coming, so they're already either killing him or aiming at the doorway with their fingers on the triggers
@Yeahbuddymd ... I can't recall the exact weight but it is top heavy. Even without the RF and ES ( thankfully they are detachable!) it's still a tad heavy. The electronic sight just dosen't make sense to me! I'm more a fan of the traditional leaf sight, lighter and requires no batteries! Also aiming in general takes getting used to. Think it's just one of those things that they made overly complicated when there was no need!
As a combat veteran with the real 172 SBCBT Ft. Wainwright AK. I can tell you this is your regular active duty Infantry. The are performing Mount training. CQB, Room clearing. and such.
@SaintsSpecOps True I hadn't considered that civvies could be in there. That adds an interesting dynamic to CQB and room clearing. OT didn't explode on the AT4? What is OT? Like the actual rocket in the tube got shot and the rocket shot out but didn't detonate? Rated your comment up btw. Cheers
@williamLongino dude,what's the title? US ARMY!! yeah, they are using m16a4, 55,6x45mm NATO, fires burst fire and has a extremely high jam rate. and they use M4A1 as you see in the video, uses the same calibre, but has full auto instead of burst, and it has the same HIGH jam rate, and don't come with that if I dont know the differance. the reason i said m16, is bacouse m16a4 and m4a1 is very simular... so just beat it!
@manowartrexspacefan now am not 100% sure about this, but i don't think airsoft guns are used in training sims ever. i thing they use blank rounds and an instructor decides who is hit / injured . because you have to be accustomed to the rifle's recoil
@HESXENON Idk if you want to watch this but it was just a little airsoft training put on by a marine that i filmed. To get to it just go to my profile and look for airsoft cqb training (or something).
@mccraywilliam855 I agree. Look at :31. He does not even dig his corner. He focuses toward the center of the room and drops is weapon to the low ready before he is sure his corner is clear, One tango in that corner could have wasted most of the entry team. Then again, this is why it is a training video :P
@FortPolkAirsoft ...its either polk or shelby!!! Thank god its mostly NG and reserves!!! Years ago I was there for JFTC and I thought I was back in the wild west! I think they still have all the orig. bldg's, it reminded me of harmony church(benning) before its demise!!! Makes me wonder, is there such a thing as a "awesome post"!!!!
@MrPelhambay .... No you cannot get your citizenship thru the Army or any other branch. You first have to be a citizen of the US. IE, you move to the US then become a citizen, then you can join if you meet said branch's criteria...
The Green Berets are Special Forces (a term exclusive to the Army). The Rangers are Special Operations. The Rangers are part of the Army, and have a history predating the Marines. Rangers are meant to be a highly trained, extremely mobile, light infantry, that is always available for rapid deployment anywhere in the world, or shock troops. Their motto is "Rangers Lead the Way." The purpose of the Marines has become very similar. In the Army a tour of duty is typically 12-15 months, Marines 6-7
man, i envy those guys that their country provides them such training conditions, like facilities and instructors. if the army of my country had those conditions i wouldn't mind serving a few years to see a little bit of the tough site of life :) great job - it seems like lot's of fun :)
@SlayerofFiction .... Ahhh I think I see what you're talking about! If you pause it just after they make the corner, thats actually his left hand on the #1 man! If you can freeze it when the keyboard is in the middle of #1 and #2 you should be able to see the angle of his M4!
@BillNickJim - puerto rican citizens can join the us army, and since your greek you can get your citizenship into the us through the us army or any of the branches
@Thorpefull it could be because it was the 2nd guy's sector to cover. Sure he could have covered it himself, but what if there was a bad guy on the other corner as well? He, and possibly the 2nd/3rd guy, would be dead.
@SlayerofFiction... Were you talking about the number 4 man? Cant tell from camera angle, but he's actually covering the window! I did notice the number 3 mans weapon dip for a split second as he approached the window...
@williamLongino It wasn't rare to me or my squad. My entire squad consisted of 5 members including me, and none of my squad wore any discernable markings or anything on their uniforms(when they wore uniforms).
@williamLongino k thanks for you help, i just trying to figure out what i signed up for because my staff sergeant isnt really that knowledgeable when it comes to info on infantry training

Thumbs up for the left handed guy at 0:45?
i love the random keyboard. One last thing. God bless u soldiers
best simulation never seen: attitude, team work,communication,....keep up
@pcworldman its a special shotgun called a breaching shotgun, specially designed for point blank firing to destroy locks and door handles.
Well said. I have met a man from war. He told me, "Don't go to war. It is living hell."
practicing room clearing is so much fun
i dont understand how this stuff works, if i was sat in the room with a m249 aimed at the door, and a stream of people checked the room while moving for 0.5sec before the next person moves in, they would all get wasted unless 100% of room clearence use a flashbang

Yes they deserve respect of course!
@adamobarca were changing to a higher caliber rifle. some troops including now days all of our army rangers are equipped with the SCAR H. the marines and special forces like the REC 7 and other custom weapons
@ComradeSap True. Since only one inboard corner is being cleared, any assailant in the uncleared corner can blast the entry man's six.
I used to do a lot of OP4 work at Hohenfels, had lost of fun there
@williamLongino
Yep stand corrected been over 10 years since ive done FIBUA lol,
Breaching drills, makes sense to me now ,how things change, the importance of spacing and not bunching used to always be pumped into you even when breaching,cheers im behind on the times he he thanks
@1xXitachiXx1 This video was probably recorded a long time ago. When we got out of Vietnam, we had mostly woodland gear, but then we went to the desert. We were not prepared for the environment and wore what we had. Now we have updated our supply though.
CQB is almost integral to modern combat,but let's not forget open land warfare and combined arms movements across open terrain.
Cqb training is fun! I'm a tanker so I don't do it that much but because I'm in the 3ID I have go go through some infantry training, and it's fun sometimes! :)

that is so cool im so going to be in the special forces when im older. thats what ive been practicing for and dreaming of.
SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@pal165 ..... Well yes, that is true. In this case an explosive charge was used to breech the door. I'm gonna go way outside the box here and say their attn. would not have been focused on the window as much as it would have been the door that was just blown off its hinges!

No not necessarily . CQC means close quarters combat and covers all combative actions in close quarters, including oodle noodle and crossbow fights.

Damn, never thought the Army were that good at CQB. Nice job guys

Close Quarters Battle(CQB): Controlled Violence Up Close and Personal With Speed,Surprise, and Violence of Action. HooYah!!💀🇺🇸🇵🇷🇳🇴
This is ultra fracking cool!!!!!
@GuitarTech94 ...........ACU's came out in 2006. So your both correct!
@franky1l he was practicing popping locks and blowing hinges.it sounds stupid, but there is a method to it
@lakai326 Practicing how to blow off locks/hinges. Makes getting past a locked door much easier.
@manowartrexspacefan now am not 100% sure about this, but i don't think airsoft guns are used in training sims ever. i thing they use blank rounds and an instructor decides who is hit / injured . because you have to be accustomed to the rifle's recoil
@CaptainMorgan32 maybe, but flashbangs are usually reserved for when the situation is hot. Better not to waste all on every inch of the house.
the original version of this edited by a friend of mine had music over the sound .. so you couldnt hear the commands anyways
@HESXENON
Idk if you want to watch this but it was just a little airsoft training put on by a marine that i filmed. To get to it just go to my profile and look for airsoft cqb training (or something).
@williamLongino On that point, but the vest color is the question.
@Yeahbuddymd oh i see. i got out in 07 and we were still rockin the 203's
This video brings memories. CQB Training was the shit...
@PTSTUD87...Yo Gaba gaba!!!! You rock!!! I use my kids as an excuse to watch!
Nice...Love it. Army leads the way
@1xXitachiXx1 ..... This vid was shot not long after the ACU's came out, so some units had them some didnt.
i think the us army deserves some respect. any body else agree?
@mccraywilliam855
I agree. Look at :31. He does not even dig his corner. He focuses toward the center of the room and drops is weapon to the low ready before he is sure his corner is clear, One tango in that corner could have wasted most of the entry team. Then again, this is why it is a training video :P

Yes. Its used for "situational awareness"

@williamLongino - yeah you can, ive heard of people gaining it through the mil
Glad to know you guys are on our side (holland)

I'm about to be in Gold phase in two weeks and I'm pretty sure we start CQB training then. Driving a stryker tomorrow though
man, i envy those guys that their country provides them such training conditions, like facilities and instructors.

@chris96kalonji ...Situational awareness.....Other times its used for playing a theme song while breaching!!! Its a force multiplier!!!!
@BillNickJim - puerto rican citizens can join the us army, and since your greek you can get your citizenship into the us through the us army or any of the branches
@lakai326 if im right and im 90% sure door breaching practice lots of military and swat will use a shot gun with a breaching round
@Thorpefull
it could be because it was the 2nd guy's sector to cover. Sure he could have covered it himself, but what if there was a bad guy on the other corner as well? He, and possibly the 2nd/3rd guy, would be dead.
@CaptainMorgan32 they often frag a room before they enter. but they can't exactly do that in training with a camera man in the room.
This is true. I'll agree with you here. War is truly terrible.
@FireatWill35 ... Because thats how you breach a door when using breaching rounds.
@darkpenguin94 so this will actually be in infantry school, thanks for you help man
@SlayerofFiction... Were you talking about the number 4 man? Cant tell from camera angle, but he's actually covering the window! I did notice the number 3 mans weapon dip for a split second as he approached the window...
@AmericanPatri0ta
I think people tend to but the barrel against the forehead, not the scope.
This was cool. I like the sense of skill progression. What was the pistol transition? Failure drill?
BADASS!!!!!....nuff said
NIce vid. thanks for the post. ARMy leads the way.....all day every day
Sometime's the stack likes to have a theme song playing in the background..
@williamLongino
It wasn't rare to me or my squad. My entire squad consisted of 5 members including me, and none of my squad wore any discernable markings or anything on their uniforms(when they wore uniforms).
excelente vídeo de base e instrucción a la reserva del ejercito chileno,gracias !!!!
they use the shotgun to blow locks away because bolt cutters are not standard issued
anybody else see the cassio keyboard up against that building there?
@williamLongino k thanks for you help, i just trying to figure out what i signed up for because my staff sergeant isnt really that knowledgeable when it comes to info on infantry training
@Boltzy8686 all powerful armies deserve respect
awesome video.
@Boltzy8686 I think air and water are good things. Anybody else agree?
@adznz11 one airsoft gun does eject shells, but there's still a huge difference and it sucks lol
You said it all.....I mean BEST POST IN THE ARMY....LOL
@surajkiller55 this is part of infantry training
