In Vietnam, two of us in an hour would set up a field camp with three rows of concertina wire surrounding out combat engineer platoon large enough to protect men, tents, vehicles, and equipment with a fire zone to ward off attackers. The wire goes down fast.

LOL! That it does. And if the Army runs out there's always WalMart. 200 feet for $34.99. Expedited delivery available. God Bless America.

I have stressed this on other threads, which is why I question what the reasons are that the wire installation was not started a long time ago. Was it intentional obstruction or simply ignorance?
