For example, one needs to know the diffeence between counter-attack and fire suppression; between fire for effect and for collateral damage; between a 5,56 and a 7.62 caliber shell and their effects. There's alot more to it than on TV.
What relevance does this have to the fact that our troops are being fired upon from areas such as a mosque (as Don Cardi pointed out) and are not given the opportunity to fire back. Your disscussing irrelevant information when the point remains that if you are ordered to hold fire, you can't win a war, weather your intentions are to shoot for collateral damage or for effect.
