SOCOM stacks. www.titansupplements.com

The differences is SOCOM 1 yields leaner, stronger, faster (more muscular/ cardiovascular endurance and fat loss than SOCOM 2). Yet it still packs mild lean mass/strength and injury regeneration. SOCOM 2 yields more lean mass / strength and injury rehab than SOCOM 1. Yet it still packs its own notable cardio effects.

SOCOM 2: 6-8% bf reduction, 10-12 ibs lean mass and 40-50 ib increases on major lifts. Generally 2 minutes of 1 mile run times and better sleep.

SOCOM 1: 8-10% bf reduction, 6-10 ibs lean mass and 25-30 ib increases on major lifts. Generally over 2 minutes off 1 mile run times, Improved sleep and injury regeneration to a lesser extent than SOCOM 2. by @snipers___up

The President of the United States of America, in the name of Congress, takes pride in presenting the Medal of Honor (Posthumously) to Sergeant First Class Randall David Shughart, United States Army, for gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of life above and beyond the call of duty, on 3 October 1993, while serving as a Sniper Team Member, United States Army Special Operations Command with Task Force Ranger in Mogadishu, Somalia, in support of Operation RESTORE HOPE.
-
On that date, Sergeant First Class Shughart provided precision sniper fires from the lead helicopter during an assault on a building and at two helicopter crash sites, while subjected to intense automatic weapons and rocket propelled grenade fires. While providing critical suppressive fires at the second crash site, Sergeant First Class Shughart and his team leader learned that ground forces were not immediately available to secure the site.
-
Sergeant First Class Shughart and his team leader unhesitatingly volunteered to be inserted to protect the four critically wounded personnel, despite being well aware of the growing number of enemy personnel closing in on the site. After their third request to be inserted, Sergeant First Class Shughart and his team leader received permission to perform this volunteer mission.
-
When debris and enemy ground fires at the site caused them to abort the first attempt, Sergeant First Class Shughart and his team leader were inserted one hundred meters south of the crash site. Equipped with only his sniper rifle and a pistol, Sergeant First Class Shughart and his team leader, while under intense small arms fire from the enemy, fought their way through a dense maze of shanties and shacks to reach the critically injured crew members.

The President of the United States of America, in the name of Congress, takes pride in presenting the Medal of Honor (Posthumously) to Master Sergeant Gary Ivan Gordon, United States Army, for gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of life above and beyond the call of duty, on 3 October 1993, while serving as Sniper Team Leader, United States Army Special Operations Command with Task Force Ranger in Mogadishu, Somalia, in support of Operation RESTORE HOPE.
-
On that date, Master Sergeant Gordon’s sniper team provided precision fires from the lead helicopter during an assault and at two helicopter crash sites, while subjected to intense automatic weapons and rocket propelled grenade fires.
-
When Master Sergeant Gordon learned that ground forces were not immediately available to secure the second crash site, he and another sniper unhesitatingly volunteered to be inserted to protect the four critically wounded personnel, despite being well aware of the growing number of enemy personnel closing in on the site. After his third request to be inserted, Master Sergeant Gordon received permission to perform his volunteer mission. When debris and enemy ground fires at the site caused them to abort the first attempt, Master Sergeant Gordon was inserted one hundred meters south of the crash site.
-
Equipped with only his sniper rifle and a pistol, Master Sergeant Gordon and his fellow sniper, while under intense small arms fire from the enemy, fought their way through a dense maze of shanties and shacks to reach the critically injured crew members. Master Sergeant Gordon immediately pulled the pilot and the other crew members from the aircraft, establishing a perimeter which placed him and his fellow sniper in the most vulnerable position. Master Sergeant Gordon used his long range rifle and side arm to kill an undetermined number of attackers until he depleted his ammunition.
-
Master Sergeant Gordon then went back to the wreckage, recovering some of the crew’s weapons and ammunition.

Top-tier training shouldn't depend on a department's budget. An Army Sniper is giving back to the community by running free marksmanship classes for local SWAT and law enforcement snipers. Real skills, passed directly to the teams protecting our neighborhoods.

Range 191 at Hansen, jungle R&S at JWTC, and dusty ITX rotations. Running an STA platoon took more than 0317s. Dedicated radiomen and support billets screened, humped the same weight, and operated right alongside our brothers.

Comment "SUB" and we'll send you the link.
