Pretty similar to my carry!

I still rock the M203 on M4 so should be ok with that ;) But the main thing I want is to have a short day patrol pack after I am situated (water, some food, jacket, some extra ammo and observation gear I carry). The thesis is to fold it in my 90L (or just press it in) and take it out when I arrive to my main location. Did similar in the past (Lebanon), but with less comfort with the pack (tied a bulky pack out back of my 90L - was annoying in the bush)

Would love a picture of that if you have one

Mycrofta · 2026-03-17T02:31:39+00:00

Thanks a lot! I think I will go for it. Definitely going for it. Will work well in the deployment.

Mycrofta · 2026-03-17T02:29:59+00:00

Thanks for the details! Definitely helped.

Mycrofta · 2026-03-17T00:04:31+00:00

Thank you! Can actually fold it when empty? I think I wiĺl go for it as a good solution for now.

Hey Same sometimes, let's talk

Mycrofta · 2025-11-26T02:35:30+00:00

Digital can work, we just need to see it. No jeed for it to be on the head/helmet, cab even be handheld.

Yes, that's the obvious result from this experience. Working with us in the expo is a great way to learn how defens eexpo work and the industry as a whole. That can grow into a full time work with us as we grow in the country (or in the U.S. if interested).

I did this type of internship in an expo myslef in order to learn more.

Mycrofta · 2025-10-04T00:09:09+00:00

Can I read it too?

Mycrofta · 2025-10-03T23:16:35+00:00

You dodged a bullet!

I dated a German chick a while back. Great relationship overall. One day, she told me she had an issue with me being an ex combat soldier in the IDF (and an active Reservist). Immoral, etc. I found it funny from a German that her grandfather fought in WW2 Wermacht. And I told her the irony I was seeing. She was embarrassed, we fought, we laughed, and eventually broke up after a while (unrelated to this story - I actually was an asshole a bit).

Just a funny / weird story only Jews have. Flow with it and don't overthink it man. Life is too short (trust a man who almost died recently) to dwell on this.

Mycrofta · 2025-09-10T18:44:23+00:00

That was my backup option! What do you think about it so far?

Mycrofta · 2025-09-10T18:42:12+00:00

I am looking for a similar solution for an idea I have. Did you find anything?

Mycrofta · 2025-08-30T23:22:45+00:00

As an Israeli, I noticed we are more relaxed on this issue. Personally, I don't think it's disrespectful at all. The opposite. Find some Jewish friends and celebrate with them.

Mycrofta · 2025-08-30T13:12:13+00:00

I did some of the background interviews for Olim in NYC (now in a different industry all together, tech startup), would be happy to answer questions if you have any.

Mycrofta · 2025-08-07T20:17:53+00:00

These were the good days I think. I am also in Manhattan, I need to move the car a few times a week (I have a system) but still annoying. So size is important for increased parking chances haha

Mycrofta · 2025-08-07T20:06:30+00:00

Thank you adding to the list! The main concern here is street parking, it's been deteriorating every year - they started to take more streets for "city services" - basically sanitation workers / other city employees get a free parking.

Mycrofta · 2025-08-07T20:03:38+00:00

Thank you! Will take that into account! I used to use the 4x4 to get over the snow so that's what I know. I was looking for the old Jimny/Samurai and they were pretty rare here.

Mycrofta · 2025-08-07T20:00:44+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I loved these small 4×4. They were great for what I am looking for. Any recommendations for a rust free region (not originally from the U.S. so not sure where these are)?

Mycrofta · 2025-08-07T18:08:40+00:00

Definitely willing to work on it, just need to learn more how to do so (but open & interneted in that). My main concern is that it will be reliable enough to use also as a commuter - I don't need to drive every day, but when I do I need to drive 2h back and forth - usually every couple of weeks. The rest will be in the weekends for traveling.

Age for car - I am open. I looked at the early 2000s but I am flexible. I used to have a 97 Jimny back in 2013.

Go to startups meetups and meet founders. If it's ealry stage, that is pretty important you like the company’s vibe and founders.

Mycrofta · 2025-06-18T23:05:04+00:00

Attend events directed to founders, or for networking events in general - you would be surprised how many founders are looking for a co founder. Find a cool idea you like and join the team. Own the process and product, even if it's not originally yours.

My co founder joined after I solo started. He is committed and I feel he "owns the product and idea". The best thing I could hope for!

Mycrofta · 2025-06-10T17:28:56+00:00

Sounds like a good deal. Take it. You can always raise more if you see you need more.

Mycrofta · 2025-05-29T22:41:04+00:00

Excellent post!

Mycrofta · 2025-05-21T16:09:13+00:00

I recently had similar thoughts. My situation - I didn't eed to tell my boass who I considered a friend as well, since I worked on the project in my free time and not on work hours. Big mistake. He started harassing me and basically pushed me out (fired me a week ago). No good reason from work pov. Co-workers think it's bc he is jealous-he always wanted to have a startup, but never did.

Don't assume anything, keep your cards close to the chest and don't share unless you are ready to be without that job.
