light infantry patrols relentlessly and aggressively ambushes the enemy light infantry sometimes double times into battle think about that you’re like hey we’re running we’re running that’s an interesting thing i’m concerned i’m a little bit concerned if i have to run to get to the battle i’m a little bit concerned about what i’m doing because i’m running i feel like i’m late and if i have to run to battle i feel like i’m late yeah it seems like that’s like a flex move as well concur yeah yeah yeah it’s sort of like will run yeah yeah i’m not sure if that’s the smartest thing i’m running that means i’m late and now i’m tired when i show up yeah a little bit more i mean i’m not saying you can’t function i’m saying you’re a little more tired than you would have been do we get a cool flex right yeah do we get to say look we’ll run yeah we’ll look yeah we’ll run maybe like because it could have been it could be i guess under certain circumstances be like a psychological warfare situation because in football that’s how it was where it’s like hustle off the field hustle on the field right yeah when you think about okay there might be a time saving element to that for sure but bruh if i’m really not hustling on and off the field i got more energy for the play yeah i’ll tell you what when you run when when like you see kids wrestling yeah and one kid runs like they go out of bounds one kid runs back runs back neat you know toe on the line ready yeah and the other kids 100 psychological warfare yeah psychological warfare maybe that’s why they’re saying that maybe i think you’re right i think it might be in the parlance of our time a little flex light infantry tracks listens locates cuts off raids and ambushes the enemy isn’t that weird to think about when you’re in when you’re competing against someone you actually should think you should be tracking listening locating cut off raiding and ambushing them think think about how the thing that i like about that is you’re focused on them the thing i don’t like about it is you’re focused on that right there’s a little dichotomy there we can’t be focused so much on what the other guy’s doing we need to be doing something the enemy never knows where the light infantry is or when he will attack jack don’t give away your position for the 50 millionth time i’m not gonna st when when echo has a different viewpoint than me i don’t start off by telling him my viewpoint and explaining why my viewpoint is better i don’t i actually ask more questions about your viewpoint and try and understand your viewpoint and get your viewpoint till i actually know exactly where it is before i reveal my position standing operating procedures are used widely by light forces for quick silent action yes standard operating procedures for silent action that means you don’t have to talk we know what’s going to happen next one rehearsals training pre-combat briefings and sharing of information to the lowest levels are more common among light forces this is the cornerstone of decentralized command rehearsals training pre-combat briefings all that stuff the infiltration of large units of light infantry is possible in close terrain and is necessary for success in major operations under these conditions light forces infiltrate to attack the rear to establish blocking positions and to create obstacles in the path of a retreating enemy yeah check what that means is where we’re moving into good positions and we’re doing it in a clandestine manner so the enemy doesn’t know that what we’re doing and the last one for offense is hand-to-hand combat is a required skill for the light infantry affirmative man the the propagation of hand-to-hand combat right now in the last since the ufc started is insane yeah it’s insane yeah yep it is i mean even in that community it it’s insane not to mention like when you go when you explore the spectrum of the guy who doesn’t know anything versus the guys the guys or guy who knows a lot even within the people of who knows it’s so much like variety so it’s so vast you know it is it is a insane evolution in since 1993 it’s crazy the evolution since 1993 since the ultimate fighting championship yeah the evolution of combat sports is almost incomprehensible yeah because before then it’s kind of like people didn’t really have a valid found or a stable we’ll say or reliable foundation of fighting and then kind of jujitsu kind of essentially provided that yeah and everyone started learning it so what does it look like this is kind of the answer the the answer to this question is what you’re talking about like what does it look like when everyone knows the foundation imagine what you can build on it you know yeah and i guess there’s other things if you look at basketball right i mean basketball now is different than it was in 1954 right it’s a different game i mean we’re talking it’s a different game but i think that’s less obviously i think mixed martial arts is might be the most but skateboarding you’ve seen what a kid will do on skateboards right now yeah it’s crazy it’s mind-boggling yeah surfing i mean surfing is nuts it’s nuts what guys are doing from a technical level from a technical blasting heirs like what but not only that blasting 360 ollie airs where they’re not even they’re not touching their board but they’re going up and doing a 360 in the air and landing it if you brought an old-school surfer from 1962 yeah and you if you were to bring it if you were to bring a 1962 surfer and say hey if you go back to 1962 and said do you think that a surfer will be able to launch off the wave into the air turn 360 degrees without touching his board and land does that sound possible do you know what i mean does that sound does that actually sound possible yeah it doesn’t re it’s kind of hard to it’s kind of hard to comprehend that that could be an actual thing yeah you know they probably wait what do you mean not touch the boards meaning not grab that board they didn’t even understand grabbing the board like you wouldn’t probably have to say that part yeah like how are you going to get a board out of the water first of all their board weighs 42 pounds made a redwood makes it hard so there’s these like you said there’s a foundation once this foundation gets created you get to build on it and what’s that’s what’s so crazy i’ve been talking about this on the debrief a little bit i’ve been talking about ef online leadership there’s a base there but people just ignore it yeah people think they don’t understand that leadership is a skill just like just like surfing just like skateboarding just like playing basketball it’s a skill and if you learn then you if you pick up a book and you read you’ll learn about it and you go oh i can use these moves yeah and people don’t do that people people don’t understand why it’s very difficult for people to understand that leadership is a skill even though they go that guy’s a great leader they think that that person was just born that way they don’t think what are they actually doing i mean when i when i was running the training and i got to watch that’s what made it so obvious i’m like oh that guy’s not doing what that other guy did and that’s why they’re falling apart right now got it check
