The insurgents were actually behind the trees and the soldier was just shooting through them. In other words, they were not his actual target.

@AtticAddict Videogame generation mentality.
In real life you don't have exact radar location on a heads up display telling you where the enemy is. You cannot take 10 bullets and keep champing. Usually one 7.62 round and you're down.
Reality is, Machine-Gunners are there to make the enemy keep their head down and stop shooting at you and your friends. By spraying in the general direction where fire is coming from, it works.
So yeah, you can either take some knowledge and understanding from th More..

Incase you don't get what is happening. By firing into the trees like that is called suppressive fire (Suppressive fire is a military tactic where a high volume of gunfire is used to trap the enemy, in anticipation
A soldier lays down suppressive fire with a mounted weapon supplementary flanking attack. In terms of the Four Fs doctrine, it is the second 'F' (the others being "Find, Flank, and Finish) Suppressive fire is best offered with high capacity weapons such as LMG's or mounted weapo More..

@SAPD_SWAT There's a fine line between "suppressive fire" and spray and pray. It's an ok tactic if you've got good supply lines, endless access to ammo, and quick-response air-power. It's silly if your supply lines are fraught, or you're operating in a small company with little chance of flanking, or you have a confused battlefield, or you're not sure when the next air-strike is coming. The Yanks were criticised in Korea for "suppressive fire" by their allies - which was huge More..

I agree that we shouldn't be over there. But the soldiers don't have a choice. They go where they're told. And I hope they stay safe and come home in one piece.
