Using tracers to keep track of ammo = Viet Nam level fail.

I cannot even list all the reasons why that’s the dumbest idea I’ve heard all day... but it is.

Can you give us a couple of reasons?

I would say that advertising your position just before you run out of ammo is one.

Help us put on our tactical thinking caps.

I would be very interested as well. As a Marine who was deployed to Nicaragua in ‘81, fighting jungle warfare, it interests me more than you know. Regards, kawhill

One of every five. Not for ‘keeping track.’ For judging POI.
