I was a BSFV (Bradley Stinger Fighting Vehicle) Driver and Stinger Missile Crewmember, we used the word RSOP (Recon Select Occupied Position) when setting up our CP, A-O and moving throughout the battlespace. Back in the day before Desert Shield/Storm we got ARTEP on those skills and it helped us keep our combat edge.<br />Response by SFC Joe S.

Can we correctly assess a situation from eyes in the sky as we can with boots and eyes on the ground?Response by SGM Mikel Dawson made Oct 27 at 2015 9:20 PM2015-10-27T21:20:47-04:002015-10-27T21:20:47-04:002015-10-27T18:50:38-04:00
