Should instead of going for gimmicks we should just train till we don't do dumb things?

I agree, but I remember having to put a "Red Dot" in the middle of my watch "So I would remember to Be Safe." After a while I simply did not see the keypunched hole-sized piece of red duct tape.

Yes but properly trained and motivated personnel will greatly reduce those oh feces! Moments.

Better known as the "fecal law of gravity."

Agree - there's a difference between gambling and taking a risk.
Gambling you're playing the odds.
Assessing the risk is stacking the odds in your favor.

SFC Ralph E Kelley I saw it lots of times we were at NTC and we dismounts had to set up an ambush about 8 to 10 miles away rounded up to 12 with snooping and pooping we had to move quick so we left all our gear except our combat load and weapons we were moving at night the ambush was at dawn we got there early so we had it was about 25 degrees with the wind chill luckily some of had brought some poncho liners we weighed the risk and we paid for it but ambush was successful and nobody died

SPC Gary Welch - That's what be means to assess the situation.
Take what you need for success not the kitchen sink (unless you need one).

Hear, Hear!
