Additional MOSes
No, not Moses, as in parting the waters fame, but another brother in the fray needs to added and recognized: the 11D, better known as Scouts. From what I have gathered in my memory banks, these were the nastiest, hardest-drinking, most-accurate firing, and fastest driving warriors ever to grace a battlefield, and it was my honor to lead such a force for 5 1/2 months!
I had ten ACAV's, each equipped with .50 cal. MG, 2 M-60's all with heavy metal gun shields. One of my tracks also had a 106mm recoiless rifle mounted, although getting ammo for it was a bitch, if not impossible, and to complement the other firepower, I had executed a lateral transfer of a 60 mm mortar, which I fired off the top of my track, holding the barrel with some asbestos gloves while one of my gunners proferred rounds down the tube.
