Sean O' replied to Eric Theodore Korzeniowski's discussion Uncommon Luxury Watch Brands in the group Timepieces"This seems like a good thread to ask this:
Anyone familiar with some of the Russian watch brands from Russia2all.com ? Some of them look really nice and at reasonable prices."
Sean O' replied to Eric Theodore Korzeniowski's discussion Uncommon Luxury Watch Brands in the group Timepieces"I have a Chase Durer that I really like."
Sean O' replied to Barrex's discussion Can a trim, well-groomed "perpetual shadow" be considered professional?"It depends. If I had never dealt with you before and was meeting you for the first time, I would probably suspect that you had over-slept and that you were unprepared. From that point on it would be on you to overcome that impression."
Sean O' replied to Joseph's discussion Survival kit-and suturing"I feel there is a definite difference between wilderness/survival medicine and clinical medicine. I actually have a lot more experience working in wilderness/austere environments than clinical environments, but can negotiate both when I need to. The…"
Sean O' replied to Joseph's discussion Survival kit-and suturing"Yup. I have been trained in surgery, anesthesia, and taught tactical medicine in at least 3 different countries not including the U.S. and am very familiar with IV's, sutures, tourniquets, etc.
For hypovolemia (most likely what we are talking…"
Sean O' replied to Joseph's discussion Survival kit-and suturing"This depends. Tourniquets are used to control a life threatening bleed. Dressings and bandages are used for smaller/slower bleeds. Eviscerations should be moistened and covered in plastic to prevent the wound from drying out, then secured with…"
Sean O' replied to Joseph's discussion Survival kit-and suturing"3-0 is a good general size. Get sutures that are already armed. 5-0 is great for face wounds, but can be difficult to work with and is too fine for about anywhere else. If you will be able to remove them when appropriate then go for nylon. If not…"
Sean O' replied to Victor E. Franklin's discussion First time international travel, where to go?"Eh.......depends on what capacity you go and what you plan on doing. If U.S. military the ROE is very strict and prohibited from combat operations. But operations and OPTEMPO are very high."
Sean O' replied to L De Guzmán's discussion Greetings from Manila"Will do! It will probably be a little while. Next trip should be looking for a house to lease in Cebu!"
Sean O' replied to L De Guzmán's discussion Greetings from Manila"Magandang Gabi and Mabuyhay!
I apologize, but that's about the extent of my Tagalog. I am very out of practice. I visit Manila at least once a year. Welcome to the forum."
Sean O' replied to Uncle Sam's discussion Any way to make the ALICE pack more comfortable for ruck marches/hiking."I would say experiment with the belt/hip pad. I know some that it works well for. I can't use it well. I find it puts too much pressure on my hips and tends to rub me raw after awhile. It also makes it difficult to dump your ruck if the…"
Sean O' replied to Uncle Sam's discussion Any way to make the ALICE pack more comfortable for ruck marches/hiking."Shane is tracking on this. It's not just the weight, but also the bulk. When you do most military training (FTX, Schools, etc) you will have a prescribed list of what needs to be in your ruck. For right now I would suggest getting rid of the…"
Sean O' replied to Uncle Sam's discussion Any way to make the ALICE pack more comfortable for ruck marches/hiking."You need a frame. After you get a frame then pack the weight so that it sits high in the ruck and close to the body. There is a pocket for a radio that was purpose built for putting the weight close and high."

I believe the "Military School" he "attended" was called the United States Air Force.

Jacob Salber replied to Chris Hamm's discussion Who Wears a Watch Anymore?"I have worn a watch for so long now that its neither part of my dress or a mere time keeper, it is a part of ME. I feel very odd if I dont have the old Timex strapped on. Plus, Its easier just to glance down and check the time instead of having…"

A Poem by some one that I knowTake nothing lightlyBy Bjorn FaknamTake nothing lightly. No vain promise give. Hold your honor tightly, In the one life we live.Do not throw trust away, Whether in you or from you. Live up to it today, In everything you do.Look with respect. Follow honor to the letter. Use the courtesy you expect. Nay, treat them better.No matter what gifts you were given, You are never above yourself. By whatever cause you are driven, Put yourself on the back shelf.Those around…See More

Liam replied to Liam's discussion Moving towards my first muscle up"Thanks for the advice Sam.
It is interesting that you didn't find the negatives very helpful. The elastic idea is really interesting. I have managed my first reps but what I found was I am taking one arm over the bar before the other, either my…"
Liam replied to Liam's discussion Moving towards my first muscle up"Yes I agree, unfortunately I don't have anything to record myself with. I managed my first poor quality reps the other day which I am thrilled about but my maximum reps of pull ups has fallen significantly in the process (from 12 - 15 down to…"
