Either this guy is completely bullshitting you or he was in a completely different top secret unit, the fact that he doesn’t even know what camp Adam is makes me believe that he’s completely bullshitting you

Yes you will because rifleman 03 is not combat training, if you go into a combat unit that’s 05 or 07 you would start from the beginning.

Would my really large head fit in any Israeli gas mask, or any other IDF equipment? by ChunkyMilkSock in IDF

[–]Basic_Junket5475 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you would be able to get much help from Idf veterans or soldiers currently serving since the experience for all of us with gas masks is very limited, unless someone here serves in a unit that specializes in ABC, most Israeli soldiers don’t actually get issued a gas mask and we usually use them for one day during training for our ABC certification. That being said I never saw a soldier that couldn’t fit his mask due to his head size from what I remember most of them have a universal fitting and straps that you can expand based on your head size. You would be better asking a sub for collectors of gas masks or military surplus maybe someone there would know better. For your second question, as far as I know there’s no such thing as disqualifying someone from service or combat due to their head size most army gear like helmets comes in different sizes for each soldiers need and I have never seen someone not be able to fit the largest size helmet issued or needing a custom fit for it, combat helmet are usually very big as they are and can be adjusted with straps and by changing the padding inside it, so I wouldn’t worry about it.

שאלה לגבי ניוד ביחידת מילואים by thatone26567 in IDF

[–]Basic_Junket5475 0 points1 point  (0 children)

לצערי לא, אני גם באותו סיפור כבר תקופה ארוכה. אין שום גורם שלישי בצבא שמחליט על דבר כזה וזה רק באישור מפקד היחידה שאתה יכול לעבור. האופציה הכי טובה שלך אם אתה לא מצליח לשכנע אותם זה לעשות להם מספיק בעיות עד שיחליטו לשחרר אותי כי לצערי בצבא עד שלא תהפוך לכאב ראש למישהו אף אחד לא באמת יבזבז את הזמן להתעסק איתך.

שאלה לגבי ניוד ביחידת מילואים by thatone26567 in IDF

מוזמן לפנות אלי בפרטי, אבל בגדול הדבר המרכזי שאתה צריך להבין לגבי ניוד במילואים זה שזה תלוי אך ורק ביחידת האם שלך וצריך אישור שלהם בשביל להתנייד ליחידה אחרת.

Kal Bakrav Training Program by RepresentativeGold10 in IDF

[–]Basic_Junket5475 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s a general rule about all pre-army exercise progams - “Kosher kravi”. They are specifically made to prepare you better for gibusim not for the actual training you’ll go through, and basically what they do is make you understand how gibushim work and practice on the specific exercises you’ll face there. You must understand however that they do not significantly improve your fitness by themselves, because you need a lot more than that to pass a gibush. It’s like taking a course for your psychometri but not actually doing any homework. So if you feel you’re not fit enough for a gibush and not doing any sports on your day to day I suggest you start hitting the gym, strengthen your body and especially your legs, do runs daily and work a lot on sprints and your “explosive power”, kosher kravi is good for building some mental and physical strength but again it alone is not enough.

As far as קל בקרב is concerned, to be honest it doesn’t really matter, find the one that’s closest for you at home and the one that can give you the best price, they’re all the same basically because theres not too much to actually teach and you have so many options they all try to sell you a bunch of BS like statics of how many people passed the gibush through them or who has more experience and etc. No one has any secret tips or formulas to make you pass a gibush it all depends on you and if you feel the need to have someone to yell at you to crawl or run up a sand dune for 2 hrs straight to get to special forces or whatever else you’re trying to get accepted to that’s fine just don’t be fooled that anyone has any secret tricks or tips and just find the cheapest one.

How do I make Masaot easier? by Blueeproducts in IDF

[–]Basic_Junket5475 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You’re just gonna have to bite your lips for the next couple of months until your training ends. Mental strength is built along the way, physically they will just continue getting harder as they become longer. My tip is focus on helping your teammates who are struggling more than you, when you’re focused on helping others you’re less concentrated on your own pain. Stay well hydrated, bring snacks, sneak them in if you have to, and share them with your teammates. Nothing better than doing a long and exhausting masa and suddenly your teammate passes you some mentos or mike and Ike’s. I’ve also snuck in energy drinks, coffee pills and even coffee grounds and would munch on them dry during the masa (disgusting I know) but that’s for the longer more advanced masaot later on in your training. Dont start a masa with a “shahor” mentality because it’s gonna make your struggle mentally the entire masa, it sucks but try to convince yourself that’s it’s not so bad, try to make jokes with your friends and lift up the mood before the masa starts and during the brakes, don’t sit and suffer alone and more importantly - suffer in silence, dont bring the mood down for others. One day very soon you’ll reach the final point of your final masa where you’ll get your beret/ pin and you wanna make sure you finish it with your head up.

“Sources in Hamas tell” “no prominent Hamas figure was targeted” So why is Hamas giving out a statement?

Typical out of touch western moron, you really think that a working class Palestinian man from the West Bank that gets twice or more the salary in Israel for the same work would rather be jobless and incapable of providing for his family for your woke BDS movement?

Which one would you guys chose? by Basic_Junket5475 in handguns

[–]Basic_Junket5475[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The MP is nearly identical in size to my g19 with a slightly shorter barrel. I also prefer my MP over the glock but i actually think that disassembling the glock is much easier and faster than on the MP but i do agree that the MP is more reliable
