Protect A Volunteer sammelt Spenden für zwei Thermo-Clip-Ons für die Scharfschützen von Defcon Tribe, einem Spezialeinsatzteam im Schwarzen Meer. Ohne diese hat der Rest des Teams keine Überwachung im Dunkeln, da die Scharfschützen nicht richtig sehen können. Das Team braucht auch Winterkleidung

Defcon Tribe is a great team operating in the Black Sea with members from Latin America, Italy, South Africa and more. We’ve funded a drone and night vision for them as well as connected individual team members to donors. As you can see in the picture above, they are very serious and hard at work 😊 Of course we had to include that butt picture.
In all seriousness, they’ve asked us for thermal clip ons , which are infrared attachments that can be attached to their sniper scopes. This allows them to see in the dark and continue providing overwatch to their team on operations. They are blind in the dark and since the team operates a lot at night, this is bad. We found a retailer in Ukraine that gives military discounts and can get them for around $2400; this is much cheaper than normal.
We will also be posting in a few days to raise money for winter clothing for them. Now that it is winter, it is chilly on the sea! Just thinking of it makes me cold.
If you would like to donate for thermals or winter clothes, please go to our [PayPal](https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=CLFN53FZKSDY4) and select “Defcon Tribe” in the dropdown menu.
Interesting “tripod”. Backblast area clear!
That gives the term “recoil” a whole new meaning
Whole new meaning for the term “crack shot”.
I hope to christ no MREs were consumed before this
$100 sent.
Does “overwatch” refer to the rest of the team protecting the sniper and spotter while they work, or something else?
The sniper can’t see because his scope is in a black hole.
Happily donated!
Holy shit is that anti material sniper rifle that thing is huge.
$100 sent. Thermal sights or thermal wear, your choice.
Maybe somebody can buy this guy a proper bipod as well.
100 sent, hope they get some Darn Toughs too
It’s a big collection, so I sent another $200.
I hope Rogue Team is revitalising okay after their stated setback (for lack of a more appropriate word). Hopefully you can give us an update when they become combat-ready again. ETA: sent another $100 to Rogue Team, because I know their need is great. You said they needed ~$15k to re-equip, IIRC. Can you update how close we got?
I can send money after the holidays. As a disabled US Army veteran, money is tight for me at this time of year. At the beginning of the year I will donate if it’s still needed. I wish I could do more and want you to know America supports you. Slava Ukraine.
The absurdity of that 1st pic compared to the absolute aura of the 2nd pic is hilarious.
