Why Patrol by NR

[mikebratcher69]

Sorry fellas missed this post been "doin stuff" as you do...
Yep NR was right I'd patrol through the area normaly, the penalties for not patroling thouroughly normaly outweigh the danger of the patrol. Suspicious lumps dead bodies on quiet recon patrols usualy attract a bayonet or silenced round. If on agressive patrol i.e. looking for trouble, I'td have at least two rounds in it....It's amazing at night how bushes have the ability to move to the human eye, if you eye suspects it human or human shaped it makes it move in your head (optical illusion) I'm a suspicious patroler though, if the area looks heavily patrolled or too many suspicious lumps I'd divert and keep it under obs. I may be a good shot but I draw the line around platoon size contacts...

Basic rules though, avoid patrolling on paths or walkways as they may be monitored or mined, Patroling properly is quite a difficult thing for non service personel, as your bump (reaction) times are severely down compared to active service personel.
Even mine are way down as I dont practice as often as I should (never).
