THE RULE OF LGOPs
(LGOPs = Little Groups of Paratroopers)
After the demise of the best Airborne plan, a most terrifying effect occurs on the battlefield. This effect is known as the rule of the LGOPs. This is, in its purest form, small groups of pissed-off 19 year old American paratroopers. They are well trained. They are armed to the teeth and lack serious adult supervision. They collectively remember the Commander's intent as "March to the sound of the guns and kill anyone who is not dressed like you" - or something like that.
I always had a vision of the movie "Gremlins"...except in BDUs!
The corrollary is LBMPs (Little Bunches of Mech Pukes) running around with LAWs and DRAGONs looking for enemy armor to shoot at. Not as stealthy as LGOPS but they make MUCH bigger booms!!!!
(See, I brought it back to Bradleys!!!!)
