Coch has four operational SEAL tours of duty to the Western Pacific (WESTPAC) under his belt and has spent eight years as an assaulter and breacher on the US Navy's tier-one counter-terrorist unit (Naval Special Warfare Development Group) making operational and combat deployments to hotspots in Eastern Europe and the Middle East.
In Coch's most senior military position he was the Chief Warrant Officer in charge of training and combat systems for forward deployed SEALs in the Middle East out of NSWU3, Bahrain.
After retiring, he served as Contract BUD/S instructor responsible for curriculum development and teaching the basics weapons course for all US Navy SEAL candidates.

One guy at Lewis McCord gave me great advice. Save money by getting a cheap Condor or used carrier, take it to the Korean seamstresses at one of the off post cleaners, have her do a double stitch job on the areas that could potentially rip/come apart and voila' you have something almost as strong as a Tactical Tailor/Redback/Ferro rig that can be run hard at a class or on deployment.

Shawn Wiegel you are correct. There really were chemical weapons there. Saddam did after all use them against the Kurds too. But the one thing people miss is that the reason Saddam had chemical weapons was because the CIA sold them to him.

Hey Coch, thank you for your service and the great content. Which plate carrier lets me wear all my gadgets and trinkets at the same time? I bought all this shit, now I want to wear it all at the same time just to be sure. Love your channel.

Lol, I carried a kabar but had my old m9 on my pack. I traded a lot of crap to keep that stupid m9. Probably should have left it, that things added some weight.

Now this aid kit is pretty interesting idea but I like the one we have one is molley to the side of the plait carrier it can deploy for both sides

@jacobkilman8444 4 жыл бұрын

GHOST I hate that ifak so much, if it remotely snags on anything, all your shit gets yard sale all over the place. Our medics started having us take the Israeli dressing out and start carrying ace wrap because it’s more universal and frankly Israeli dressings aren’t built the best. Anyway that beefy role of ace wrap just put that POS ifak on the bleeding edge of being able to contain it’s contents

@wormfrom808 3 жыл бұрын

The place of the first aid kit differs from unit to unit. That "back of the plate" position may be only good for spec ops since they would have multiple people to help each other all the time. If you only have yourself or inexperienced friends for company, having an ifak in your backpack or in front of the vest would be a better idea.
