This is combat footage b-roll of 3rd platoon Apache Company 1st Battalion 23rd Infantry Regiment Soldiers based out of Joint Base McChord-Lewis, WA conducting a patrol with the Afghanistan National Army or ANA through Shawali Khan, Afghanistan. The patrol comes into small arms with enemy insurgents and return fire. This b-roll is of the firefight only.

I chose infantry in the Army National Guard
eventually it adds up to billions of dollars a year worth of ammo and resources…wasted.
the Taliban just send one or two guys out with a couple shit rifles and a few rounds of ammo to engage a whole squad of americans and let them waste thousands of rounds of ammo shooting at nothing.
Taliban – 10 rounds of ammo
USA – infinite ammo cheat on!!!
Overwhelming firepower!! Grunts are hungry!
No offence but enemy shoots soldiers shoot back everywhere
the enemy fire off a burst and the Infantry unload…. classic
LOL, SOO REGIMENTED .. SO ORGANIZED .. SO "PROFESSIONAL"
THEY'RE FIGHTING ONE GUY AT THE OTHER END OF THE FIELD .. AND HE ALREADY LEFT .. HE LEFT HIS GOAT BEHIND TO KEEP FIRING BACK AT THE AMERICANS
i know i posted that comment, but i dont remeber at all why i would. I must have been drunk or something. haha
DUDE thats like 40K in ammo easy…. notice how it gets quiet from this side of the feed?
I hope you know I met a man and his father from Afghan and it's not about hate for the military, it's about what he said. They think like that. If you in fact serve the military may you please advise them that afghans are wicked clever….. thnx. Just goin by the ole drunk at the bar lose tongue.
I hope you've served in the us military before you posted this.
waste of resources….. most 'attacks' on soldiers in afghanistan are done to frighten the squad…. see how much ammo they waste? that's the tactic, white ppl are kinda slow….
It's called "suppressing the enemy"…The machine gunner/rifleman fires rounds at the target to keep them from returning fire. Its a tactic to keep the enemies head's down to allow friendlies to move around and gain a better advantage on them. Apparently you know nothing about tactics.
I think those soldiers were wasting to many bullets, they were shooting without knowing the exact location of the enemy,
