Thanks for the vid James!
Being extremely honest and not politically correct here, so I ask the question. Should women be allowed to throw hand grenades? Less upper body strength equals less distance thrown ending up with the possibility of one of these devices landing danger close to friendlies.

Being brutally honest, I think in this specific video the throwing technique was flat out AWFUL and that specific officer should either practice with rocks or be removed from this training course. That was simply bad and would be just as awful if it were a men doing such a bad throw.
ReplyDeleteI mean... come on, a 90° angle between what was supposed to be the target and the actual place where it landed? Wtf
DeleteI've thrown a grenade a total of 3 times in my life, all of em at MCRD. If I remember correctly we did practice with dummies first, and only than with the real thing, plus we stood in a pit with nothing on either side of us or even behind us for at least 50yards. Bad form we have here. And did you notice the Police stenciled on the backs of the T's? Are the cops in the US practicing tossing hand grenades?
ReplyDeleteThis takes place in Brazil. and i dont believe they are Frag grenades
