During my time, we had to do movement to contact in a 3 tonner. Once contacted, it was literally jumping off the 3 tonner with weapons and dummy ammo and diving or leaopard crawl to the nearest cover. I think we had 10 seconds to dismount a section of 9 men once contacted
Our helmets then were the steel helmet with plastic lining. The SBO were the 1st generation type.
I believe we are tougher then. Nowadays, brain power more important. Last time, do already then think. Now, think first then do.
Last time people don't think so much .......... when contacted while in 3 tonner, dismount and go for cover.
Now people think too much ............ when contacted while in 3 tonner, sure die, no need to practice dismount and taking cover.
