He's not a winner yet! However he IS a strong contender.
Ooooh! Mahal siguro bayad sa photographer.
....nasa ibang planeta sila James Yeager...we cant blame them..they are warriors and not ipsc shooters..
..comparable din ito sa isinasagawa ng SAF, scout ranger ,etc.. na ipinapahawak ang lobo bilang target..cqb drills,etc..
yung 180 degree rule ng IPSC is for competition use only...:cool:
Either that guy has balls of steel or a brain the size of a nut. :wow:

we call it Confidence Firing, the benefit of it is to both the shooter and the "hostage". Building the confidence of the shooter of shooting a hostage taker with a hostage, and to the "hostage" is building his confidence being under fire.
as to the video, it seems that the photographer is one of the trainers, which i think same principle that they are applying to.
I bet you their liability insurace premiums just went up fourfold. LOL

My son says that this type of shooting is the norm in their unit. If the shooter needs to check his target, he needs to walk down to his target while others are still firing down range. However, the targets are much farther apart. He told me that one day on the range, there was a group of reservists yelling at the range master about a soldier walking down range while others were still shooting. The range master said, "Don't worry about him, he is with the 82nd."

there was a video of ces drillon holding a stick with two plastic bag ( gamit sa ice) filled with water at both ends. She was in the middle of the range while one of the soldiers started shooting the the plastic bags. Same sa sabi ni saki confidence firing din yata yun.

I read that SAS, Delta and Devgru always practice CT/Hostage rescues in doors with live hostages who are team members also.

I chanced upon this video of the ambush in Iraq on James Yeager's team. It was him in the first car breaking contact heading onto the other side of the road.

But these guys are not SAS or HRTs. If there is a hostage situation I'll let the pros handle it.

I figured. I can think of at least 5 reasons why he shouldn't have broken contact. Least of which is that his team has not yet established fire superiority. Most of all, he left his fireteam dealing with the enemy and wounded fireteam members in the line of fire.

Wala tatalo sa SAS
They practice w/ the royal family as hostages in the dark naka NV yung mga troopers. Pinaka matapang daw si Queen Elizabeth , wala flinch
If I remember right , dun sa Ghost Soldiers na book, naputukan daw ng flashbang si Princess Di
those idiots are sas(sure asintado sir!). pero wala yan sa lolo ko...... :)

Nice. They even threaten people at the end of the interview. Class acts all the way.
