Having been there twice myself..I agree...PC ROE's SUCK!:down::down::down:

:har::yeah:

Rules of Engagement - Official - You must be shot at before you fire, you must not remain engaged against a fleeing target, etc...

Rules of Engagement - Unofficial - He had a gun - He is dead - He can't say he wasn't shooting at us.

Sure you can get into some trouble with that - and some have - but that is because they used the logic to attack first and ask questions later. A keen eye, constant vigilance - will keep you alive more than most realize. Its not perfect - but if they are shooting at me - I consider it a "high intensity conflict" regardless of what some politician says.

As an old expression from my former line of work states:
"Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6".

Here endeth the lesson....

Best to avoid being in that situation altogether!:up:

If your job requires you to go..you go...especially when you KNOW before hand that this particular job COULD put you in harms way...
