I would teach my Soldiers about the history and operation of it. Every unit I was in had one of these because of MILTOE requirements.

Nope. You'd be better off editing it to say something different.

Maybe SSG(P) James J. Palmer IV aka "JP4" or SSG Carlos Madden can help.

We were just talking about these at drill this weekend. Apparently there is still one on our books...

used it in Korea in 2001-2. Remote mountain sites couldn't just up and leave to get keys in the winter.

As a MP, the oldest fill device you've probably seen was a KYK-13 or ANCD. It's okay.

OH WOW!!!! This is from the MSE Dark Ages! We had these in our unit but never actually used them. We used CZY-10's and KYK-13's
