QUIZ: US Military operational terms, graphics, and symbols...how well do you REALLY know them? Alright, RallyPointers -- time to get scared. I made a tougher quiz than last time...so tough that I had to make it a bit easier since our testers were all failing it. So, are you up for the challenge? 15 questions instead of 10. This quiz pushes the limits of your professional knowledge of US Military operational terms, graphics, and symbols. Are you the real deal, or are you a poser drawing random things on a map? ;-) Here is the link: https://www.rallypoint.com/static_pages/us-military-symbols-quiz Everyone reading this should post their score here in the thread as always. Good luck and prepare for some humble pie!

13 of 15 - I think it needs a little more cowbell and a lot more CAV.

I got 13/15. Not bad for an AMEDD guy. This was my evaluation at the end of the quiz:

You are ready to command Coalition Forces in theater-level warfare. Well, maybe that's a bit much, but you ARE really sharp with this specific content. Awesome job, seriously!

Awesome job, Sir -- this goes to show all those NCOs who say Senior Officers don't stay sharp on their professional knowledge!

I love these. I am going to guess them without looking them up.

I only missed one. I didn't get the flame thrower. I never seen that. I now know. I learned something new today. Thanks to CPT Aaron Kletzing For the lesson.

You guys are lucky that I trimmed down the multiple choice lists -- in the first version of the quiz, I had like 4-5 choices for each question. Man, I would have FAILED that quiz, too, if I wasn't the one who made it. Haha. :) Good job on the quiz, everyone!

This could be used as a recommendation/wait list for Battle Staff. It is NO joke.....but great for leader development.

SFC Mark Merino SFC I took this test 1 time and I scored a 53%. Now I really feel the need to study up on my symbols. I guess this is another area not really given much training on. I wonder why this is not given much?

It's a staff thing. As a grunt, you see a lot more symbols on graphics. If you ever get stationed as OPFOR you see graphics in your nightmares.

My saving grace was the test I had to take when I did my spur ride! Though it has been over ten years I still remembered more than I figured I would.

We need to work as a team. It takes a room of staffers to make the boss look great.
