If you want to dig something, use a shovel. If you want to pry something, use a prybar. If you want to cut or stab something, use a knife. Do you understand the concept of the right tool for the job?..

I wonder where they were out there. I was in Anaconda with the 10th Mountain and I can only remember one place I could have dug a fighting position. Was it in a book?During the Operation Anaconda, an Australian SAS soldier attached to the 101st Airborne wrote about trying to dig a foxhole with a knife, his last comment was he would never go to the field again without an E-tool.

Thanks for the name of the book so much that has been written about that operation was from the American POV and discussed the failings. It wouldn't surprise me at all that they were attached in some way to the 101st they were the largest force there. There wasn't all that many total, 101 was in motel 6 and about half of a battalion, the collective special people were in the old hangar and maybe a couple rifle companies in size, then there were us and the Canadians, next to the special kids and we're we're no more than a couple companies.GermanyChris, I first read about it in an After Action Report and later found a book written by the same man. The book's title is "18 Hours" by Jock Wallace. If I remember correctly he and one other Australian SAS man were attached to the 101st as liaisons. John
