Rules of combat you were never taught. UPDATED
1. You are not superman
2. If it's stupid, but it works, it's not stupid
3. Never draw fire, it irritates everyone
4. when in doubt, empty the magazine
5. never share a fighting position with anyone braver than you.
6.your weapon was made by the lowest bidder.
7. all 5 second grenade fuses last 3 seconds.
8. if you're short of everything but enemy, you're in combat.
9. incomming fire has the right of way.
10. teamwork is essential, it gives the enemy other people to shoot at
11. if the enemy is in range, so are you.
12. tracers work both ways.
13. the only thing more accurate than enemy fire, is friendly fire.
14. intel is always wrong.

updates:
15. if in doubt try some cannon fodder
16. all pilots got their wings from a cereal box
17. if a medic slaps morphine into your ass and says dont worry, worry, worry alot.
18. people who fail art school make excellent commanders
19. a tank is like a TREX its vision is based on movement
20. when in fallujah do as falluajhns do
21. if a pilot says he's got this just save yourself the trouble and bail
22. a tank is more afraid of you then you are of it
23. that 12 year old sl has done 3 tours of his local airsoft field, so respect his authority ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
24. combat engineers, they're men of many talents, we're just not sure what they are yet.
25. when using IED'S make sure you answer the right phone.
26. always cut the red wire when defusing an ied
27. SAW Gunners, compensate for having a small pee pee
28. A rocket launcher fires both ways
29. grenades hate everyone equally.
30. watching someone shoot with a SUSAT, is like watching stevie wonder use a mg42. sure it might look cool but you've wasted 1200 rounds hitting sod all
note: this is meant as a joke and should not be taken literally.

31. you can never rely on your team to pull their weight, refer to #2 for advice on not being dragged down by your team.
