There is at least a brigades worth of heavy armor in Kuwait the last I heard(this was from someone in 3rd ID from Ft. Stewart),however the personnel to man it would have be flown in from the States. There is also pre-positioned equiptment at Diego Garcia but I don't know how much. The 101st Airborne could also be there along with the units Schullenraft mentioned.

I think he meant the M16 rifle Olle
CavScout I was a modern grunt and your right most DAT's did seem to think it would take at least two of them to operate that weapon.Maybe the loader wanted to keep doing his job outside the tank.

I too have used jeeps and my impression is that the crews will abandon them as soon as the nearest German farts,for that matter as ssoon as ANY German farts.

Keep in mind the backblast factor from the AT weapon,you could fry the other squad or set the building on fire(I found this out the hard way)

My take on the crew as infantry thing is as follows,a tank crew is going to do what they have to in combat because that's what it takes to survive,be it hiding,fighting, running,whatever.But a good CO is going to do whatever it takes to accomplish his mission,to include using the crews as scouts or grunts,and barring winning a good commander is going to do whatever he can to ensure his unit survives in some sort of fighting condition so they can accomplish the next mission. Having said all that it really depends on the indivdual situation to define "gamey",I've seen some crews do some really cool stuff on thier own (read:AI).If I had ordered them to take out a vehicle would that be gamey?

LOL!!You know with minor changes all of those plus Olles could be applied to the military procurment system.

I think this a good idea myself,I would like to add this:the rate of change should depend on the rating of the unit in question i.e. an elite unit would stay or come into command at a longer distance than a regular unit etc. Also a higher level of command (CO as opposed to PL for example)should factor into this somehow.

Just read an article at Military.com and it sounds like the beret will be the standard headgear with the BDU. there is a question about whether the Class A headgear will change also.

The "book" reason for M1's not having HE rounds is that they're not supposed to operate without Bradley's in support of them.

Currently the Ranger units (1-3/75th INF)are the only units autherized to wear the black beret,at least until this change takes effect.

Gamey Tactics by Priest
in Combat Mission Archive #2 (2000)

A couple of posts back Priest proposed the idea of someone else being able to pick up the radio if the HQ section was wiped out. I had a thought that might go along with that;how about adding a platoon sergeant position to the mix? Maybe instead of having one 4 man HQ section there could be two 2 man sections,i.e. PLT ldr and his radioman,and the PLT Sgt and his runner,if the LT is killed of the Plt Sgt could take over,perhaps with less command radius or something to simulate the reduced effectivness due to the loss of the officer in charge. I don't know how feasable this with the current game engine but I thought I'd throw it out for consideration.
