    Default So They Throw Like Girls? Sad.

    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

    Yeah, I read that BS too. Let’s get rid of combatives and physical fitness training/tests while we’re at it. This smells like some General prepping to transition into a politician.
    Btw, you won't hear me apologize often, so you may want to put that in your sigfile. ~Mergie

    Probably need to start teaching the throw and run like hell technique.

    That is funny. Mine sailed over the target trench by a wide margin, landing well past it.

    Reading the article, I feel sorry for the DI. They are removing the distance requirement, but recruits will still throw a live grenade. We had to pass the requirement before we got to throw a live grenade. I would hate to be the DI with that person that can't throw when it is live.


    If a man is alone in the woods, says something, and a woman does not hear, is he still wrong?

    Common sense is not a gift. It's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone else who doesn't have it.

    This is nuts.

    “We are finding that there are a large number of trainees that come in that quite frankly just physically don’t have the capacity to throw a hand grenade 20 to 25 to 30 meters,” Frost stated.
    Let's just take the middle one - 25M. That's 82'. That ain't even throwing somebody out at 2nd base from the plate. Unreal.
