Not like it's marked on the claymore or anything!! It's cost really. It's not convenient for a mech unit to train us light guys with live demo, when they would rather spend 30mil$ on bradleys and whatever the Abrams cost, to shoot gunnery and the cost to fix them afterwards.

You probably don't want an admin type to handle a claymore because of this:
They would argue that which side is the front has not been marked, and assume that the instructions are written on the back of it...
They likely would also not realize (and don't ask how an IMA navy electronics tweet knows this) that a claymore is also dangerous out to 100 feet behind it, depending on how it is situated.
DEFINITION: Alligator.
Common lizard in the southern states native to swampy regions that has been fed large amounts of hominy grits and bacon - usually preconsumed by incautious prey in its vicinity.

We do some maintenance for cutters, small boats and the ANT team. There's a lot more the Active Duty staff gets there hands on as well.
