When I was brand new to the army, we were training with another unit and, we had to defend the urban combat area (MOUT site) from an incoming force. We were allowed only allowed a few hours to prepare.

One guy suggested that we set up trip wires to, at lest, slow them down. The doors are all painted bright blue, and all anyone had was my package of black 550 cord (parachure cord) that could easily be seen. Setting this up we thought there was no way they would miss it.

I was wrong.

Instead of checking the door, like they were supposed to, the opposing force simply tried to rush through. I almost couldn’t return fire due to the fact I was laughing so hard. I even put a piece, just below knee level, in the doorway to the room I was in. I turned around when I heard people falling over each other.

I looked and almost the entire squad was crawling on top of each other trying to get up. I put my weapon on burst and emptied the magazine. Then fumbled with my last one as I started to laugh even harder than before.

After I blindly fired down the hallway I just leaned against the wall and the entire group and myself just looked at the scene and started laughing. Then their platoon leader came running in and tripped over the same cord.

At this point I was done. Put my weapon on safe, put it against the wall, and tried not to piss my pants over the whole situation.
