Marine Corps Jungle Warfare Gear

December 1, 2018 by Scott Witner Leave a Comment

The Marine Corps Jungle Warfare Training Center in Okinawa Japan had to be one of my favorite deployments. Learning how to operate and survive in a jungle environment is vastly different than a desert or woodland environment. There are also threats native to the jungle that you must be aware of. I remember attending a […]

The GORUCK Challenge is a Fun, Interesting Event While Prepping For Selection

November 18, 2018 by Loadout Room Guest Authors Leave a Comment

While preparing to go to Selection, there is a lot of individual work that must be put in. Finding and breaking in the best boots for your feet and prepping your feet for the long road ahead. Then there is the Land Navigation training and map reading which, if you aren’t ready for can be […]

Aftermarket Rucksacks for Selection Preparation, Rucking and Hiking

November 9, 2018 by Loadout Room Guest Authors Leave a Comment

We’ve gone over the rucking tips quite a bit and everyone preparing for selection should be very comfortable with a ruck on their back and be humping long distances. It goes without saying that rucking and land navigation is the bread and butter of special operations forces. If you can show the intestinal fortitude needed […]

Rucking For a Cause on Veterans Day

November 8, 2018 by Loadout Room Guest Authors Leave a Comment

Yesterday in a post we spoke about giving back to our people and community by getting involved in many of our Veterans Day events locally. Here is a way everyone regardless of whether they served or not can give to some great and needy veterans organizations. While searching for local events on Veterans Day, I […]

Garmin Tactix Charlie | One watch to rule them all

November 5, 2018 by Jens "Rex Nanorum" Hammer Leave a Comment

As the capabilities of our armed forces expand at an individual level to include responsibilities and abilities never before imagined, so too the requisite number of tools has expanded greatly.  Much like smartphones cramming as many features as possible into a pocket-sized computer, the Garmin Tactix Charlie is a superwatch that combines the traits and […]

Remember Rucking is a Marathon and Not a Sprint

October 8, 2018 by Loadout Room Guest Authors Leave a Comment

As we frequently do here at SpecialOperations.com, we post pieces on what many times are based on our messages or messages on Twitter. And this week I’ve gotten a few messages and questions concerning rucking. And when it comes to rucking, we get about 50/50 with our messages and/or questions regarding that or Land Navigation. And […]

Combat Survival and RECCE Chest Rig Setup

September 29, 2018 by Garand Thumb Leave a Comment

I’m not a fan of having equipment on my belt line. It impedes movement, gets in the way during awkward shooting positions or when getting into observation spots. As a SERE instructor for the military I have quite a bit of minimal gear that I need to carry in order to fulfill my job effectively. […]

S&S Precision Warm Weather Maritime Assault Gloves – A Multi Purpose Glove

September 26, 2018 by AJ Leave a Comment

Having S&S Precision located right down the road in Virginia Beach, it makes connecting with them even easier. They presented me and some of the guys I work with, with their warm weather maritime assault gloves to test and evaluate. I’ve kind of been on this new kick lately of having the boys I work […]

In Special Operations, Be a Self-Starter and A Team Player

September 20, 2018 by Loadout Room Guest Authors Leave a Comment

We repeat these old adages constantly until they reach the point of almost being cliches at times but two of the most cardinal rules to follow if you’re looking at a career in Special Operations are being a self-starter and being a team player. If you fail at either one of those either in Selection […]

Ranger School Has Several Things Students Can Prepare For

September 17, 2018 by Loadout Room Guest Authors Leave a Comment

And others you can’t I recently was talking to a few old friends who had either been members of the Ranger Battalions of the 75th Ranger Regiment, or attended Ranger School as a member of the Special Operations community and we got into a discussion about the ways Ranger students can be prepared for the […]
