It was incredible. The weekend flew by and by the end of it I felt like I had been in Somalia for 2 days. The folks at Zussman train rangers, delta, seals (they were still cleaning up from a week of SEAL training when we arrived Friday). They have so much more than what is on the video also, at the embassy a guy driving a car at speed rammed another car and it exploded HUGE. You might not be able to see it on the low-res but there were missiles flying through the air and blowing up the sides of buildings, we had to make friends with the indiginous people and help them hold elections, a religious ceremony, etc. We had a night op where we had to capture the other teams CO (neither side won) but the bombs that were going off rocked the buildings, flares, fires burned, etc. The whole time there were probably 5-10 vehicles just driving through the city going about their business. A couple were commandeered. One of the Jeeps had its radiator shot out. Just amazing event. I think the organizers are going to make a DVD of it.
This was the first time airsoft had been allowed at Zussman and it sounded like we didnt cause too many problems (between 5+ heat casualties that had to be taken to the base hospital - they didnt like that) so hopefully we will be back there next year.
