A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat and, speaking low to me, he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free. and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. But tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money is spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. and your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God, keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist for once he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trample each God given right we only watch in tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave is to still the land of the free and home Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is the evening intelligence report. I'm Mark Burkey. And I'm Don Fetcher. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, west, central, south, and north. Ladies and gentlemen, you were listening to us on dot four m g dot com indiana freedom talk radio dot com ronnie mn f m i cro station cv base stations and alternate hallmark and technologies east and west of the mississippi along with alaska homework ever from the top of me that about a full room but a full record of all the mexico that we can and mississippi arkansas nebraska iowa uh... big chunk of wyoming to include both third pit the fifth in our friends in the contract and defense state of... We've got a waiting left coast where we have a great state of Jefferson. We turn back to the east, sweep across plains, leap over the burgeoning banks of the Sippy Land and the Smokies. For the restaurant crews, Grammar teams, OK teams, and the Ma Bell Grammar Consortium, bring us the Golden Spike down. Gray, chilly air out there. Wind coming straight out of the north right now, and damp. What's it like in your neck of the woods? And what's jumping off the wall this beautiful day? Well, it is the fourth day of... March, year of our Lord 2015 and it's the sun's getting kind of long in the tooth there, you know, it's gone It's cold out. It's again the first few days of March a particular day and with that in mind You know, it's the stripe down of the week on the calendar there So 1911 in one hand empty magazine well magazine in the other hand We're just gonna introduce the magazine to the magazine. Well, I'd release and Now we can tell everybody, oh man, that's a condition one gun. People say you shouldn't carry that gun like that. Put the safety on. And it is a weapon. It's Wednesday, the perimeter is secure. And you know, there's plenty more where that came from, even enough that I'm gonna top off my magazine now, Mark. We're squared. Well, I'll tell you what, that means we can offer equal opportunity, coercive force, make every round count. That's why that 1911 was designed to put them down hard with one round, guys. Delivering the energy on target doesn't even have to open up. It's almost half an inch already. Just throw that at them. There are people in the gun community that use that as a reference. It's a slow bullet, but it's fast enough speeding brick and weighs almost as much when it gets there, don't it? This had to hurt. It certainly will. Hey, it is Weapons Wednesday and there's a couple things I wanted to touch on here. We can make this subject matter for at least a few minutes, you guys. We talk about camouflage. We talk about motion, shape, and color. We've touched on that pretty much, haven't we? We could do the quick overview of that. Camouflage challenges your mind in a number of ways. It tries to deceive you. I would say, and I brought this to the hour before I was walking down the creek here, probably 14 years, 12 or 14 years ago now, early in the spring, and I'm trying to sneak up on a fishing hole, and I looked down at the side of the path, and I looked right at my very first thought was, Mark, within my foot, from where I put on this game trail, I look at an object, and the first thought in my mind is, oh look, somebody left a statue of a baby deer there. Now, y'all know what I'm saying here, but that very first thought in my mind when I was looking at that live doe, that live fawn, rather, that wouldn't even blink an eye as it hoped I would just walk. That really happened, and in that time frame, again, Mark, that was about 12, you know, maybe about 12 years ago. So you were in the monastery at the time, your word, sir. I brought that to the air at the time. I mentioned that. If you guys were listening in that skinny time, I brought that to the air. Sometimes it's that very first impression that is enough to make camouflage work. And again, just walking down that game trail, Mama Deer had left that farm there and she'd gone off to forage. And when I put my foot down on that little black trail of dirt, That fawn wasn't the length of my foot away from my foot sideways. And she looked up at me or he looked up at me and didn't blink an eye. Did not move. Again, did not move. That was my very first impression of that. The instant I saw it, this thought jumped into my mind. Oh look, someone left a statue of a baby deer there. But that's exactly what I was looking at, a baby deer. But, you know, fawns aren't meant to run. That's their basic means of defense. They are kind of scentless. They are without a scent when they're best of nature's ability. But the other thing is motion. And had I not looked right at it, I probably wouldn't have had that thought about, oh, a statue of a baby deer, and I would have kept on walking. Because had I not looked right at it, I would not have made out the shape of it. So now we've addressed shape and motion. But you know, those baby deer, they're colored pretty good to just hide at a glance. And that deer camouflage, it seems to hide them pretty good. If they've got their outline broken up just a little bit, it's hard to see a deer in the woods. If they're out in summer or fall or spring. Now in the winter, you've got that white outline, everything. So three out of four seasons for the coat you cannot change is pretty good for a deer, isn't it? Let's go back to that color, shape, and motion. At night, if you're moving through an area, at night you're going to wash out almost all your color and bring white light to the arena. Just watch parked in your drive, a red pair of all that your child plays with, the red collar dog's neck. As the sun goes down, the sun comes up and that red will look below light. And as it gets brighter, it'll start to close back over to we lose color sensation in lower light. That's a part of our eyes. Now, if someone's hardly moving, in fact, if someone is remaining motionless, that takes out the motion thing. So now we've addressed motion, shape, everything was in the dark, always red in the daylight. And not a whole lot of people, Mark, that want to camouflage themselves are going to, you know, put on that orange vest or that red vest or woods or the jungle, you know. But red works pretty good at night. Red works as good as black at night until someone shines a light on it. For the aforementioned reason, it almost becomes, the color itself almost becomes invisible. It shades down to mud. It looks like mud. But let's go back to that. Let's take this into daylight now. Let's talk about higher tech. Because we get when we start talking about camouflage, I bet you there's somebody out there and by what's continue this thought line But I bet you there's somebody out there and they're out there. They've almost got their finger to the phone or or they're almost done on Star six to unmute themselves because Don what do we do about thermal? Well, we've talked about thermal in a number of ways, but you know, let's let's bear in mind shape Okay, carry that along. Don't forget that when we talk about camouflage But I bring to you the example of that poor soul first Iraqi storm in 1991. They showed you right there on the evening news mark. You remember this. We've watched this video a number of times, a recorded area of desert. They can see with the fair features of this. There's a kitchen. Now, coming in from, you know, into visibility of the thermal, aionat has nothing to do with auto insurance. Anti-aircraft artillery, that's what you call, you know, 50 caliber, that's an anti-aircraft gun, an anti-aircraft machine gun, right? Anti-material. But anyway, these helicopters are looking and they've got this recorded into their thermal and here's a and nothing's coming from them. There's no fire coming from them and they would have just flown beyond that. Maybe one of them would have doubled back to the other side of those gun shields. A soldier that didn't have the nerve just to hide there behind that gun shield. That sheet of that gun crew. A protection from small arms. Have you ever heard of artillery? You know, every landing in front of them, you know, exploding HE or whatever. If it wasn't a direct hit, well that gun shield might save that man until he decided to run out from behind it, you guys. And then again, I did mention that poor Iraqi soul, didn't I? Because they loaded him up with 20mm cannon shells, Mark, remember? You see them burst around in the sand and you see the great eruptions. They weren't shooting him with, you know. They loaded up on him. It took him an instant to catch. Had he stayed behind that, maybe those airships would have flown right by him. Now you say, well, Don, that's cowardly. That's hiding and whatnot. But had they flown right by, maybe he'd have turned that gun tube or maybe he'd have brought a different gun tube there as they flew away. And then by the time they'd have turned, because the last time I addressed this, we talked about, and we touched on it here. You guys, mech forces, when you're moving through an area and you've got scouts, scouts aren't always moving in the same direction as the main body, are they? Sometimes they're moving the opposite direction of the main body. Why? Because everybody has a tendency to look where they are going. That's basic human nature. I don't have eyes in the back of my head either. But had that man stood behind that gun shield until those airframes, those helicopters flew beyond, maybe one of those every once in a while knowing that they just passed some equipment would have done that 300 and taking a look behind the equipment, forget this. Don't forget this if you're mechanized. Don't forget this if you are on foot. Just to think that you have passed an area and because, well, we march through there, it's secure, it's at our rear now. Or even if you are moving to a battle, known battle or suspected battle, it's good to be looking in all directions. Rear guard is a good thing. Because we started this conversation talking about camouflage, didn't we? And we brought up the instance of allowing the major portion of the two just walk by, didn't we? Had that Iraqi gunner to fly by, he might be telling his grandchildren how he survived the first Iraqi war, had he survived the second Iraqi war. And I don't say that in jest, but it is a learning curve and a learning curve on a battlefield is either very flat or very sudden. It's one of those, I'll never allow that to happen to me, or you'll never do that to me. And the latter isn't very, we talked, we mentioned rear guard there, didn't we? And this, you know, if you're moving even in column, it's good to have a couple people on your flanks that are moving along with the column once in a while, they turn and they just start moving in the other direction. Outriders are pickets. There are a number of different terms you'll find for them depending upon the era. Sometimes a commander will suck, pull his pickets or his perimeter in because it's logical that you are going to make contact. But the objective behind having the flank pickets slash your outriders in place is to give you early warning to any contact. Remember, their eyes and ears are supposed to be moving parallel with the formation. and preferably moving with the terrain for opportunity. It means they have to be very alert. They're as alert and they are as forward to contact as the point man. Everybody here hears about the point man, but remember they're traditionally in the US military, depending on the era. Guys, we have multiple formations for different environments. Now they dumb that down years ago, but it's amazing how your grandfather with supposedly only a sixth or eighth grade education could do all of these things and more as an infantryman and yet they supposedly claim we're smarter but we can't figure out how to do all these things. Isn't that amazing? It's just like rifle marksmanship. Well you can't reach about 200 yards. Yeah, yeah. Grandpa was hitting targets at 700 to 800 yards and would put the money on the target every time. Wow, and he was doing that with iron sights in the 3040 Craig or a 1903 Springfield. How about this? How fast can you run 100 yards under pressure? Probably maybe 12 seconds the first, 100, maybe 14 the second, maybe 16 the third. Add that up, and I'm going to count to 45 out here in the desert. Real slow. Do the math. And yeah, the dryer and the hotter. They must add heat to that, which ratchets things down, as they say, as far as available energy. Something to think about there. Yeah. The farther you run, the slower you tend to run. Pop. Yeah. That's all she wrote there, kids. Let's go back to camouflage, please, just for another minute or three, Mark. Because let's learn from that gun shield. If you have to fight on the ground in a place that is familiar to you, it would be good. You guys, do you know why log cabins have great overhangs of roof? It's so when the water leaks down and it comes down to the edge of the roof, log cabins, it's uncouth to put gutters on log cabins. It's not time appropriate. They don't fit. Maybe if you made them out of bamboo tubing, but then it would look like I was an international trap. But you have great overhangs on log cabins so that the water falls and when it hits the ground it doesn't splash back up onto the logs or worse yet, splash mud, which holds water longer. The farther that overhang is, the drier the cabin stays. There are people who build houses for the desert and they have great overhangs from the roofs that shield the windows the summertime when the sun is higher so that the building does not have any direct sunlight into the building. Now if I had to build a hide so to speak that I would well maybe visit now and then want to be here for a week and then I'm going to be gone. I'd try to get as much over my head as I could even if I was in a prone position for most of that time, but I would try to maintain a a commanding view of the ground. So much that the helicopter with his thermal would have to be on the horizon to see me. I can't draw this picture. Think of so much overhang that you can't see much sky when you're in your position, but you can see all of the ground that you need to. When you deny that thermal direct look at you, you've beaten most of the military thermal deployed. But now this goes over to kind of like this is, excuse me, it's going to be like almost your house for a minute or 17 or three. The longer you are in this position making good. You guys, one of the first ways the Marines in the Pacific tried to identify hard points for Marines and airplanes in the Pacific that were dropping bombs on machine gun nests and pillbox and such. It was almost like a wide ribbon. But if they had the ability to lay this on the ground and it pointed right at the installation, and if they could flank it and it was visible from the air, you'd have two almost arrows pointing at where they wanted that fellow marine flying that Corsair to drop that 500 pounds of HE on that machine gun over there, that hardened concrete emplacement. So the longer you stay in one area, the more likely it is they will draw something on the ground, not even high-tech, that's my point here, but you're beating a lot of the high-tech from the air simply by hiding your direct line of sight. Get a few inches of earth between you and that, get a lot of pine trees. I said palm trees, didn't I? Pine trees. Now eventually, we've talked about hiding from green screen Not very far into the brush. This goes back over to the deer once you break up its outline. It's hard to see that deer in the woods. But with thermal, if I'm moving through the brush and I could be seeing bits and pieces of me, even if it's not my outline, they'll see those littler indications of heat moving through the brush, even if they don't see your outline all at one time. hard thought to convey in an audio world, a visual thought to convey in an audio world. Think of someone carrying a flashlight in the woods and they're way back in the woods in the stand of trees. But you see that beam moving through the woods and he's shining it around a little bit and he's walking, but you don't see the whole of the beam do you? Because of the trees that are in between. On occasion you see maybe three or five or seven feet or 14 feet of the beam for a moment or three different parts of the beam. That's the best illustration I can give you to put what you would see with a piece of thermal when someone is walking through the woods or into the brush enough that you've taken away. They have denied you an outline to make out what you're looking at, but you're still looking at fragments of the heat moving through the brush. Again, If you can get something solid over your head, you could find yourself a place that this is a pretty good hide for an hour, maybe two, depending on what you're fighting. We've brought the thought to the air here that there's no place in Michigan where the blue-shirted thugs, state police, can't have a helicopter in less than 15 minutes. If they've got someone on the ground saying, come here, we need help. We need to follow someone. We need to have air support, even if it's just visual. We need to cover this in case someone tries to escape in a vehicle. All kinds of reasons you would bring in air support, even if it's just, you know, eyes in the air, right? But you have to take that thought over other states, all stents if it is in your state. How many of your sheriffs have said, I want a helicopter. I'll maintain it for you. Because basically that's what the contract is when they get a helicopter from the armored vehicle. They do all the maintenance and basically the government is, it's better than parking it and letting the seals rot and let bearings take flats or plane bearings, you know, the bearings in the motor to the crankshaft because the crap these days, I said that, I'm sorry. But they've taken so much out of the oil, you guys, that even you guys who are storing cars, man, this is a highly collectible car, you probably want to go out and start that motor about every six or eight weeks, or roll it over by hand while you're turning the oil pump like you can do with a lot of Chevrolet's, or I'm not certain about, but a lot of Chevrolet V8s, you can turn that oil pump, if you pull out the distributor, you can turn that oil pump with a tool, and even an electric these days is shot. But if you get a helicopter from Uncle Sam, you're doing all of the maintenance on it. Granted, you're putting hours on it. But you're, well, Uncle Sam, I need parts for this. Oh, we got them for you. Cheap. You're doing all the maintenance for him. It is better than them parking them. But in the contract on need, they can bring that helicopter or that armored vehicle back to United States government possession. That's right in the contract on almost exactly every one of your sheriffs. who got a helicopter or an armored vehicle. But if you can eliminate your view from the air, bad thing to think about is it. This can be done in a lot of natural places where, because you have so much they're looking down through that if you're prone to a pine tree, unless he's just, as you pointed out earlier, Mark, that might be flying along looking for enemy on the ground at 12 feet, just kind of working the game trails. But if you're under a pine tree, you guys, at the base of a nice broad pine tree, you find places in Michigan and other states where you can move from pine tree to pine tree and never really see. But now this isn't the cure all be done with everything and damn the thermal, it just doesn't happen like that because if need be they'll burn forest down line to the air before. Some of the forest and trees that are burned out west, I'm certain that that's been done to deny they will run to the hills. of the hills or parched people that were going to run there. There's nothing to run there for for years and years. Well, the duro like to eat all the fresh grass. So it might not be a toad loss, but you'll have lost a lot of over and concealment. Now we've addressed that before, cover and concealment. You guys, you know, you've heard the phrase and we talk about night vision and you've heard the phrase and it almost sounds dastardly, you know, under cover of darkness. That's been acceptable thing, but you know. putting into that bows and arrows and just a spear into the dark putting into that because if I'm trying to sneak up on someone in the dark and it's a totally dark moon and there's this thing called here we went to firearms first didn't we Mark there's this thing called recon by fire and if you think that bush isn't where it was the last time you could barely squint at it in the almost total darkness and you put like three rounds into that bush and it doesn't scream well you know it was probably If it screams, you know it moved from the last time you really looked at it, right? Recon by fire, huh? Pup-up-up. Pup-up-up-up-up. Hey! Hey, I think that was... I guess you're right, Dom, that wasn't the Cedar Bush after all. Right. Oh, well. Maybe it was near the Cedar Bush, though, anyway, but the Cedar Bush changed shape, so maybe it was a good idea to make sure the Cedar Bush wasn't what we thought it was. Just light it up for an instant, yeah. Yeah, the Cedar Bush is still there. It didn't go anywhere. It didn't scream either, but what was the router did? Now, here's another thing real quick about motion and movement and overhead protection, something that's tied in. First of all, minimize all terrain alterations. I don't care if you're mechanized forces or if you're infantry, especially unconventional and paraconventional. Minimize overhead, you know, from overhead image. You have to think three-dimensionally constantly. Minimize activity that will change the look of the environment. We've talked about this, ground traffic especially. It's tougher to do in the winter because of snow, but it can be done simply by again dispersing more of the traffic or changing the environment to a degree with regard to track traffic by using overhead cover. Greener areas where you have pines are especially easier to utilize for this. Remember also animal tracks. No matter how hard the bad guys have tried, until they really do start defoliation on a massive scale like I was talking about burnouts or spraying, deer out populate us in the woods by about four seven to seven fold depending on where you are. There's also the coyotes that eat them. There are the raccoons. There are everything else you can think of. When the deer start a trail, typically everything else to a degree uses it. Deer trails or animal tracks are preferred motion points for you now one cool thing dear They are too much shorter, or in many cases are equal in height to the average American out there. So the deer trail through even low canopy tends to be cut and becomes a channel of travel. Good thing? Overhead cover constantly. Now even if it's not perfect, in other words, during the winter months you've lost leaf cover, there's still more disruptive screed. It's like an unnatural, it's a natural but it's not a patterned screen of any kind. Overhead. If you reduce your thermal image in general, or again, those thermal blankets contrary to the propaganda trying to prevent us from using that, the better thermal blankets especially offer a certain amount of disruption. Now, between that and natural disruption, your signal is dissipated even more efficiently. And remember, there are still 200, 300, and 400 pound deer running around out there, plus elk, moose, coyotes, which can be anywhere from 80 to 100 pounds, some of the bigger ones, well fed ones, and especially some of the crossbred with domestic dogs, which we have here now, they're getting bigger because they've got other genes tied into their anatomy. Okay? Those? That breed is still vicious but doesn't serve that much. which is the next threat coming out in the long run that people haven't really thought through yet, but it's starting to show up in animal attrition in the rural, in the urban areas where the coyotes are on the edge of them, they're eating up the dogs and cats. The thing is that as long as you reduce your signature, you become more likened unto the population signature that's out there. The other thing is this, in Clement weather, this is where somebody has to be working as the meteorologist of the unit, and you need to be all weather readers. You travel or move you do any improvements under cover of overhead screen of overhead you know overhead cloudcast This during especially if you can do it at night best But if you have cloud cover during the day as long as you minimize exposure You can operate even during the day at doing particular tasks or in movement But major movements should happen in inclement weather Bad weather is your weather Embrace it. This is why we talked about having all that extra cold weather gear and being able to stay in the field. But not only stay, it's not just occupying that you need to do. You've got to be able to work. You've got to be able to move the equipment. You've got to be able to mobilize and motivate to where you need to make contact with the enemy. That sentry post needs to be destroyed. The inclement weather environment is the best choice for that. Quiet and silence because of background noise, a soft snow that muffles motion and noise. It can't be seen, can't be heard, not until it's too late. These are all things you take into the formula. Winter is especially beneficial for that. Right now, as I've pointed out, down here in the bottom of Michigan, we've got a slight, demi-freezing rain over top of the snow. We've got crust everywhere. You can't move even on a regular path that's already been used without making crunch crunch. If you're a biped, you've got two feet. Those hoofs are size 9 to size 14, bigger or smaller than that maybe. But that means that you've got only so much surface area that supports your body weight. And that, of course, is going crunch, crunch, crunch every time it moves. So surreptitious motion is harder. It's something that needs to be taken into consideration. This is where broken trails or areas that are already active with animals are a bit of an advantage because they're already being beaten. Some areas we have here, we have herds of deer that are up to 60, 70 head. North of me, we've got deer trails that are as wide as a one lane car lane. They're as wide as a one car lane. They're steadily traveled. They're long. They go for miles. Because they're along old pipeline routes or along old train beds, they have extreme amounts of overhead cover left and right that have grown up over the decades since that line has been closed down or since that pipeline has been maintained. And the deer have used that area to the point where it's become a natural, organic, overhead covered tunnel. Still can access left and right. You can leave any time you want. But to offer natural cover in a travel route is phenomenal. and you need to be understanding to take advantage of that. Don't be so consistent, you're predictable because again, vary your routes. But there's many different opportunities of this type that naturally occur. The other thing, with rubber boots or waders, most every stream bed in this country is your expressway. Think about it. Another route that can be... It's hard for even the best friends on the stream bed. And by the way, just as a head... You start looking for indicators along the bank like the bent you've left. don't leave anything cigarette but we've take anything that is man-made with you drop nothing and pay attention to how you uh... how you break or uh... when you're moving through areas again pay attention select your path when you're leaving especially a waterway in a situation like this What you do is you observe the condition, move through it, minimize any kind of interaction with the foliage and try to do no damage to it. You mentioned game trails. There are places where the deer cross because it's easier for them to cross. If you can move in or out a stream or creek at that point, you've shown a less to your opponent habit and a knowledgeable person thinks along these lines already, doesn't he? The other thing about this too, again, with the waterways, let's remind everybody about material support, guys. Go to Coleman's.com. Coleman's.com. Coleman's.com. $4.58 will get you a pair of large waders that are classic hip waders, but they're the two leg type. They don't go up to the crotch. Now, for stream wading, like we're talking about, using it as a pathway, if every man has a pair of those, We all stop, we prepare by again putting the waiters on, strap them into place, and then we turn and just as if we were crossing a road, we don't go in one line, we move as a column into the stream bed. In other words, we literally exit stage left or exit stage right and we move into the water and now we're on our new pathway. And in most every case, again, you can even improve or modify without it being too obvious. You can change any obstructions or minimize obstructions while you're using in such a way that it's very unnoticeable. And the water and the natural trail deal with re-concealing any activity. Silting is, of course, going to happen as beneficial constantly. It is the norm, not the exception, guys. So again, there are solutions. Waterways, just as they have been in the past, can be the expressways or at least the walkways of the future, well, the present and the future when the time comes. Prior-prior planning prevents this poor performance. Now before we go any farther, Don, night vision technology. Look outside, guys. We've always talked about this. Take the time. Plug in. And Don Betcher, you've got night vision. A little bit of first generation available, not much, but it is out there, guys. That's green screen. Remember, they're going to white screen on that. What do we have available? What technology changes, if anything, are coming up on the horizon yet again? And how can we get hold of you? Well, I'll say I've got a very small amount. There's like the intent of the green screen. If you guys, if you're looking at that, that bus, I hate to use that reference, but in that category, there are five power, first generation, true green screen system. There are two tubes systems. So again, it's, hey, I'll put it in your mailbox for 450 bucks. The manufacturer wants five. $119 for them plus delivery and they're gonna get that because well there's some little amount of them left I can't stress that enough, but I can stress $50 is a lot better than you know 150 3 1 7 9 6 8 4 5 8 if you're looking in that direction I Use that reference more and more, but there's only there's a small number of the first generation through green screen everything else after this what doesn't will be digitally enhanced light amplification, you know, like a digital video recorder that same technology. You know, I'm talking with some people about this and I'm talking with someone that you and I both know, Mark, and one of the good things, if you can ramp up your white discipline, one of the good things Generation Gun Sight now is, well, you can touch a button and it'll be green and black, so it won't be white light. That's a good thing. It will appear like a like a green screen night vision. But you touch another button and you go back to like daylight. It can be used a cone, a piece of green screen. You know, there's times when you're in the field and and you're itching to turn on the night vision, but it's just bright enough you can see with your eyes, but you want to know what's over there and it's just bright enough you don't want to turn the night vision on yet. Has that to say that it's in it, but you can use it in higher light level. The time from dark until you know, from light until dark. But again, you guys, a third again more, you're into a second generation green screen doing right now with entry level gun sights. And that's what I have to deal with. That's across the board, you guys. It's not like it's just this company getting rid of a second generation green screen. They tied my hands on that. That's the only way to really put it. If you're looking up or if you're looking for the last of the generation killers, I can still get those. Seven, nine, six, five, eight. Again, two, three, one. We can talk about thermal. We talked a little bit about thermal in the hour, but we can talk about thermal on sites on top of your 50. Two, three, one, seven, nine, six, five, eight. Again, two, three, one, seven, nine, six, eight, four. Speaking of 50s, down in your neck of the woods, that part of the state has a lot of that are, and there's a lot of on the fields, but down in that neck of the woods, there's Mark Westroms' verse that first time I saw it. It made me think of a snowflake. It finishes just perfect for winter combat. Riveted together muzzle brake, which makes .50 caliber, because it wasn't long before they decided to just mill that out of one piece. It's real pretty gun. There's more than .150 caliber in Michigan. I can say that for certain. I just thought I'd mention that. It's not far from you, Mark. You know the man that owns it. When I think of prudence, you know, if you caliber leaning over there against the wall, that gun were mine, I think I'd call it. It's just the altered finish or if he did something to the factory finish, but it's just a beautiful gun, Mark. Well, one of the things too we've talked about is add-on or supportive camouflage or concealment tech for any of the big nuns especially. One of the hardest things to conceal in nature is that barrel. It's a straight line. Tanks have the same problem, guys. Anything. The barrel is the most unnatural part of what you're holding, simply by the nature of how straight and clean a line it has. And even when you camouflage it, there tends to be a bit of a straight, flat line to the surface. Now, it doesn't mean nature doesn't grow trees that are relatively straight. But for whatever reason, in our subconscious fight or flight register with vision, You will find that people have picked out, especially when a weapon is being carried low port and say across the body, the barrel is what jumps out with people. Not the mag, not the receiver. It's the barrel itself, the length of the barrel, the straight line that has been identified. Interrogations in South Africa when they were looking at the war against the guerrillas coming in from northwest of them from the Congo, etc. They would interview them and of course color was the first thing. They said, yeah, you're camouflaged. It's fantastic. You guys have a great camouflage and you have these big long black rifles you're carrying that don't look natural on the Savannah. So somebody finally figured out maybe we ought to change the color of the weapon. What are those black splinters on the horizon? the barrel itself was readily identified. And part of that, I mean, I guess it goes back to, maybe it's going back to the cave days and beyond, because one of the first effective weapons brought to bear was the spear, and then the next step is a throwing spear, along with, you know, again, throwing sticks, or, you know, again, centrifugal sticks, bows and arrows, whatever it is. But there is a subconscious register to that kind of geometry, that physical. So what you've got to do is keep that in mind when you're camouflaging. With tanks, they have a hell of a time because in fact they used to have competitions with NATO, and we did over here too Fort Knox, to practice camouflaging and knocking the tank down. Well, you don't leave the gun straight out and point it down the road. You don't have to, by the way, for most people who don't understand tanks. Well, the gun can't see if he doesn't have the gun up and the sights up and this. No, no, no, no, no. It's not how it works. The commander becomes the cider. Okay, more on that in a minute. But what they practice doing is the camo roll is set up around the turret. It's actually rolled around kind of like the old blankets on a Confederate soldier. The idea was you stop the vehicle along the road, the gunner brings the gun turret to the right to the side of the road and drops it right along the shoulder of the front tread. In other words, over the front mud screen. The reason for that is to try and create some kind of natural roll that doesn't look like a telephone pole sticking sideways out of a big rain bucket. You know what I mean? Kind of obvious. There's nothing in nature like that. But even when you lay the gun, the biggest problem is it's a big long piece of stick. And so again, when they camouflage it, the idea was to do a breakup somewhere down the line of it, only by a foot or two, so it changed it or broke the angle. But the whole vehicle would be camouflaged in no more than maybe anywhere from 54 seconds to a minute and three and that would be really excessive to be over a minute. Because they practice, practice, practice it. They also use the thermal screen underneath the camouflage net. Oh, you mean that mylar blanket that I've been telling you about to reduce thermal image? Yeah. Which you're all being told doesn't work because they don't want you to know some of the silly secrets they've used over the years. By the way, the same thermal blanketing and insulating is also on the main gun tube and it's on the motor compartment. Yeah, that works. Now here's another thing. Just a real quick heads up about how tanks work if you haven't been in one or actually fought in one. The commander's station has a stereoscopic view of whatever's out there and is locked into the gunner's control. When you drop that gun tube, the gunner is on standby and he's ready to roll. The commander's cupola becomes the observation hub. What happens is the commander could lock on a target with his crosshair or his sighting system, depending on whatever gradient system they have, it doesn't make any difference. On hitting a switch, imagine this, a 15 ton or 20 ton turret in a matter of 1, 2, 3. goes from that rest position to locking in exactly in line with the commander's little cupola up above and the gunner sees exactly what the commander sees. So it's like a 50, 60 or 70 ton panther or an alligator waiting to move. That's the only way to describe it. Just think about it as a predator in rest. But just because he's in that down position doesn't mean that with the hit and literally it's a red switch. What happens is you flag the switch, it's in your command, your command stick on your right hand. It varies depending which tank it is you're in. And immediately, whatever the commander is looking at, the commander will stay perfectly still because his little micro turret is attitude in targeting something. The rest of the turret below him will spin and the main gun will reactivate and lock to the target area designated by the commander's cupola. Commander doesn't even move. He's going to be sitting in the position he's in even as the turret comes up to station and the turret swings underneath him. Think about that. Just something to point out. That's how tank systems work. But remember also that now the new ones have the bread box so all fires, as far as I'm concerned, you want to knock out a big tank? Blind the son of a bugger. They have all fires on that eyeball. That eyeball is not built the way the rest of the tank is because it's got to be able to see things. So that's the vulnerable spot because it's digital. The last thing a tanker that wants to do is stick his head out. Yeah, because then he becomes brain pizza. Doesn't take but a minute with a dragon off rifle or an M21 sniper rifle or whatever you got. You put a bullet in his beater and they lose a crewman. and it's messy to clean up but it also knocks the vehicle down for the most part. It doesn't mean that the gunner can't take over but the commander of course is kind of like the primary brain of the operation. Puts the tank at any crewman in a crucified weapon that's taken out, significantly hinders the performance of the vehicle or of the weapon system. Always remember that. Mark, all I can do is shoot that guy on the right side of the weapon. Good, shoot him. He's there for a reason, guys. I'll bet you he's doing something important or he wouldn't be there, right? Oh, yeah, you're right. You see how that works? If you can see him and you can shoot him, remember soft, fleshy targets are always a good thing. And, you know, again, delegate and determine, you know, in advance who's got that job. When you come up on an area and you have maybe light mechanized or mechanized operations, You know, Perry, Frank, and Bill are in Overwatch positions. Your job, anything that looks like it's fleshy and shootable, that's your mission. Guys with the heavier weapons can then focus on, if they're carrying shoulder fire, whatever, they can focus on getting the mission done right. The soft, fleshy ones might have been taken out with the heavier weapon you were using, but as a precaution, remember you're killing technicians who require training. If that's a crew-served weapon or a crew-served system of any kind, Everybody there is a tech. Every one of them took a lot of time to train to get into the job. You just got rid of that training. Not to mention that tube weighs some weight there. That gun weighs some weight. That tripod weighs some weight. That mortar base weighs some weight. So does that ammunition supply. If you reduce that team, they might decide to leave and decide that they can't carry anything out. That's right. They don't have to throw weight to move it. They ain't going to. Right! That's simple.
