Indonesian Live Fire training. Instead of shooting above the recruits like the US own live fire training, Indonesian recruits are shot at the ground around them.

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 At least I assume the wet the ground on purpose to add some protection from ricochet.

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 “Ah this one isn’t 6 moa 😅”

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 Yeah but only the weak ones

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 There's only one casualty that was reported and that was way back in the 60s. Dude got shot right in the head.

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 I wonder what the incident rate is

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 I've heard talk of exercises back in the '50s where every magazine had 2 live rounds in them and each battalion was allotted a number of casualties. I don't even know if it was technically feasible to mix blanks and live round back then. Probably old man stories.

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 If their instructors are capable, it should be nearly zero. Not what I'd call proper range safety, but it all depends on their marksmanship and trigger control.

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 i mean its a pretty good filter, you get rid of people who cant aim and people who cant move while prone.

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 “We can’t go to war with unlucky people”

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 Its actually reall bullet and yeah it's kill people but just one person who has been recorded being shot in the head in history and the call it "Taruna Merah" or basically "Red Cadet" and here's his helmet

@spikesguides @DocStrangelove2 Actually there was only one casualty! Back in the 60s. His helmet's on display.
