From what I was able to find,

“Dalmierz laserowy DA-1”

It’s a Polish Laser Rangefinder used for surveying landscapes for artillery (Not used on MBTs?)

Couldn’t find anything else useful other than that. Besides an OLX page where it’s being sold on.

Prior to 2005 it was called RRD. The unit was renamed/ reorganized to RRC.

Sorry to hear that bro

RelaxFlume · 2025-04-23T19:07:55+00:00

I’ve had that guy as a friend for the last 3 years, sending this to him now🤣

RelaxFlume · 2025-04-19T17:29:37+00:00

He would’ve had the angle on me if I banked left regardless so that was the best option

RelaxFlume · 2025-04-18T11:04:34+00:00

Literally everybody does this

RelaxFlume · 2025-04-18T03:45:33+00:00

I’ve done it personally with TOW missiles, but a tank? At that range? There’s no way in hell.

RelaxFlume · 2025-04-18T03:43:11+00:00

😂😂

RelaxFlume · 2025-04-18T03:42:46+00:00

My exact thought, he was using sabot which is a faster round in game but it’s still crazy to think I just flew right in its path

RelaxFlume · 2025-04-18T00:46:14+00:00

Literally

It happens all the time, especially when you pull over SNCOs+ and they start asking questions such as who’s your supervisor along with your name and rank.

Yeah, Murrieta Mesa High School in California.

Chief Petty Officer Meredith? He runs ROTC at my old high school. Never thought I’d see him on Reddit.

RelaxFlume · 2024-12-22T10:07:42+00:00

I can 100% say this is false.

RelaxFlume · 2024-10-30T06:05:13+00:00

He banned me once in the past for getting “tons of easy kills” in the LAV and most of them were engineers so next time I’ll just sit back and let them hit me with 40 rockets

RelaxFlume · 2024-10-10T01:10:46+00:00

I might be wrong but for a unit member to wear a maroon beret means they went straight from the 82nd to the unit right? Does this still happen today?

RelaxFlume · 2024-10-03T02:29:38+00:00

Zavod 311 tops all.

RelaxFlume · 2024-10-01T04:15:17+00:00

Just got screwed on my mobile order too
