Can someone explain the stowing your own weapon with your backpack on top

Tweakers? Drugs on your mind?

Wow that was epic

Get rid of the stupid music so people can hear you.

The other eff’d up thing… at least when I was serving… the command “designates” a lucky soul (under the observation of the Corpsman/Medical Officer/NBC Guys) to demask. And then they all watch him. Like a canary in a coal mine. If the canary goes “belly up”… then the rest of the element can start soiling their MOPP suits and really start crying/praying to their maker.

I took part in the initial invasion of Iraq in 2003 with the 1st Marine Division… and have “MOPP’ed up” for real many many times. Every time Sadam’s military launched any type of ordinance in our general direction (which they did on numerous occasions, I suspect purposefully at night when we were trying to sleep)… we had to go into the full protective posture and exist like that for many many hours at a time. Sometimes all night and into the next day. On 50/50 watch. One man sleeping and the other monitoring for signs of distress/smothering or rolling onto the canister opening (in our day we only had a single filter). What I can assume anyone reading… MOPP is an absolute nightmare. Everything about it… a nightmare. 120 degrees. Sweat filling up the mask. Not being able to breath. It’s a misery that’s hard to describe.

I don’t mean to question the all knowing wisdom of the testers or standards… but it would seem logical to me that the hands are one of the surfaces most likely (higher statistical chance) to have come into contact with an “agent” (hands and feet). It doesn’t seem wise to potentially transfer any contamination onto the face and inside of the mask. Exposing the respiratory tract and eyes in the process. Unless you suspect that your face has been exposed to a substance/there is an indication that it’s warranted. But what do I know…

Unnngah booongah…. Me crawl under rock… cover over the dome… me ASVAB waiver… agghhhhh ttaaaaa’s!!!

I went ahead and purchased the same speaker set you did from Crutchfield. Thanks for taking the time to document the process and give tips on this. Hope the sound is improved when mine come in! :)

Question: our Corpsman were once issued MOLLE vests that were “different” than everyone else’s. These vests had huge padded shoulder straps. Shoulder straps that were extra extra wide in comparison to the standard LBV (load bearing vest). I was told this design for Corpsman/Medics was a historical tradition/carryover because as part of their function/jobs… they would be bearing litters more often than everyone else. So the huge shoulder straps were designed to somehow “attach” onto the handles or frame of a standard litter. So they could support the load of the litter instead of just using their hands. Not sure how this actually worked. In WWII they used to issue actual “litter straps” designed to attach into their webbing equipment. Is this still taught to medics/Corpsman? If so… how is it done?

We got our fills from a CYZ-10 or Crazy 10. Which was the device that filled the radio with its encryption. It was a Top Secret device the commo guys would have shackled or dummy corded to their person. Like a Corpsman being issued narcotics but much much more important (or career destroying if you ever lost it). A few times in combat… there would be a loss of one of these devices (or potential loss or unaccountability) and entire Divisions… tens of thousands of men, thousands of radios… whatever time of day or night… everyone would need to get up and immediately go through the entire process to change the encryption and refill the radios and get new radio checks. Massive PITA

I wish we had radio’s that size. When I was serving we had the PRC-119 which was twice as big. Same gigantic square batteries however. Fun fact… we used to take CD players and cut an AC or DC power cord compatible with the device and shove the exposed wires into those radio batteries. You could use the device for days. Every now and then you would “transmit” out on some net with the music playing. Lol. It’s a bad day when you transmit AC/DC out onto the Divisional Net… seeing as “wiring” in music into the radios/vehicles intercom was against the rules in the first place.

Missing my gosh darned leg… now my pants just slid off and every single person is laughing and my Ken doll anatomy… Awesome.

What is going on?

From what I read, the rear speakers upgrade is not worth it. The front speaker has the most ROI. The tweeters are close second. Both of which are easier to replace than the rear speakers.

Wow! That section where you go from K2 to K1 is scary! My heart stopped at 2:12:59! Be safe!

Great vid. It's helping me with my research.

My 12 mile ruck is tomorrow.. thank you for your service!

Thanks for the unedited hikes! They're great resources

I just upgraded front speakers, volume went up +10Db, lows and quality improved too but couldn't measure that, was the rear upgrade worth it too?

I've thought about this as is it's pretty much set up for it exactly the same way as my wife's Kia. Thanks for the tutorial!

Cool vid Andy! Appreciate the tutorial. I just picked up my new 2024 Hybrid XLT this past weekend & loving it! Besides tinting it out, I'm looking to do this install, with a wireless Android Auto setup. Do you happen to remember the Brand / Model # / a link for the 12V USB Power adaptor that you used with this setup? Thanks in advance

Ummm... Did you just install grills behind grills?

How lucky, Ive been planning to do this, and you posted an entire video of the trail, and it's recent. Mahalo for this!

What keeps happening to sound, part from that excellent hike

Hey did you have to connect or wire up the blue wire? I dont have any led turning on for me. I’m wondering if that’s why?

Was your speaker wet when you removed it??

protective hand gears (hand gloves) need to used especially while dealing with blood.

You should have used a sheet of dynamat between the sub and frame for vibrations. It self adheres

Tweakers? Tweakers

el torniquete esta mal puesto. la punta roja va hacia el lado del que lo pone, OTRO. SI YA LE HICIERON LA PERFORACION EN LA TRAQUEA, POR QUE NO LE PUSIERON EL PARCHE HEMOSTATICO EN EL MOMENTO? LA LIMPIEZA DEL BRAZO ALNTES DE LA INYECCION NO FUE LA CORRECTA

You said you would put a link in for the adapter for the speakers. Can you do that?

how much better was the sound over the stock speakers...?

WARNING: Upgrading the speakers in your Ford Maverick will NOT produce a good sounding system. I have been building high fidelity music systems for many decades, and I well understand that not all music reproduction components are equal. I replaced the moderate quality speakers in my Maverick with very high quality ones from Focal, arguably one of the finest speaker manufacturers out there (my top line home system uses Focal drivers purchased back in the day when they were making drivers for home high fi). The results were exceedingly disappointing. The reason is that the factory component driving the speakers is exceptionally poor. I had the same problem with my '17 Ford Focus, and in that case built a set of two way active speakers that I placed in the back seat and I drive those with a portable music player, and this setup yields a decent sounding system, with again the greatest limitation to that system being the music player (a cheap Chinese unit that works OK). I suspect the $350 Sony player will sound really good, but I just wasn't ready to spend that much money on a player. My future project for the Maverick involves building a 6.5" two way active system, using SB Acoustics ceramic coated bass/mid drivers and metal dome tweeters, with the MOSFET four channel amp and electronic crossover mounted behind the back seat, and the custom built speaker boxes setting above the seat cushion either side of the cab, in front of the existing speakers, with posts that allow them to sit on top of the back seat in place of the head rests. These will be driven by the Sony player. I have not seen a replacement radio available for the Maverick.

Andy, I hate to tell you brother but you're losing your hair. JK of course. Pro tip: don't button any of the plastics up until you're certain everything is working as expected.

He was supposed to pull the trigger at the end before closing ejection port cover as shown in the graded sheet

Good video. You said there’s an 8 ohm to 4 ohm conversion kit? Link?

Howdy. I have limited knowledge on this so I had some questions: When there is a wound on a limb (or in this case the upper/inner groin) shouldn't you immediately apply pressure? Maybe with your knee, and then start working? Or does that pressure not matter as much anymore? I was working on a gun shot (IRL) in a similar region. I immediately applied pressure, tourniquet, gauze, monitored. He was shot a few other times (hand, elbow, upper shoulder), but was not life threatening. I was also wondering what considerations for someone with a pacemaker. I had a guy shot several times with a pacemaker. Don't they just keep pumping blood? Thankfully they all lived, but I'd like to improve regardless. Thanks

Jb welded it to paint ?

Good pace! That is one tough hike

superb!, that looks like the same SSG from other videos. He's a great instructor
