tinkle60 Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Pardon my ignorance, but how can you tell that guy is EOD and not from the Teams? The only time I ever saw the EOD guys, they were wearing protecs, and od flight suits, or the old fashioned "Working Greens" (in offices or working in their compound on base). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You can't really tell, you just know or find out: http://www.navy.mil/view_single.asp?id=24289 Navy EOD are qualified for special operations and are deployed into combat zones, I don't think protecs would cut it in the field.

HeuteGegangen Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 So the EOD guys use both Land and MAR versions of the CIRAS? Do other SOF teams get issued both? I was always under the impression it was one or the other depending on the group. Link to post Share on other sites
Sinner101GR Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 the SOF world of gear is a very very very large place...EOD and SEALs generally can be told apart if you look at the pouches...look for big GP or med pouches for the EOD guys, they carry their tools, that or look for SOF personnel working on explosives... I find out by finding out where teams are in the sandbox and other places...For example a large amount of EOD just went down to South America, pics were everywhere on MPnet. Its also just looking at them, and knowing...it jsut clicks, but hey im a 17 year old wannabe...dont take me for Gospel. Link to post Share on other sites
Nodbugger Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Any type of Special Operations pretty much gets free reign of the equipment world. They all have their individual preferences. Each person has their own preferences. Link to post Share on other sites

They Rangers main purpose is still infantry. They are just a much more elite infantry. Believe it or not the main role of Special Forces is not combat. As for Force Recon, I don't know much about them other than that are Marines and Marines have different traditions than the other services. One of them being all Marines are a rifleman first and can be stuck with the infantry at any point the Marines see fit. They also don't wear any distinctive patches, except for marksmanship and qualification badges, to set them apart from other Marines who are in different jobs. Looking at a Marines uniform you should not be able to tell what their job is. Link to post Share on other sites
