How to dig a Fox-Hole:      

(I didnt watch the clip so I dont know what it says)

1. Get a Shovel (most likely you will be using the smallest worst shovel ever your military entrenching Tool)
2. Pick the shortest guy in your company ( You have to dig to the shortest persons armpits) But your SGT, will make you find someone  roughly your same height. They know the ticks too.
3. Start digging a rectangle to the width and length of you and your battle buddy so you can stand shoulder to shoulder and back to back in the hole.
4. When you are sick of digging, you are only a foot in. So Keep going.
5. When you are done with hole go to the pile of dirt you just dug and start filling sand bags.
6. Get branches for rafters for sandbag roof. So the branches need to be stout here is where combat hatchets come into play. (If your lucky you get plywood but dont hold your breath)
7. Build roof with sandbags and branched and I use sandbags about three high to build a wall around the foxhole and put the roof on top of that. Make sure you are able to shoot out the front and be able to view around the corners of your hole.
8. Crawl in Foxhole and learn to sleep standing up. ;D

Thats my foxhole, hope you never have to build one. I have had to build them in Louisiana and Georgia in July. Not the funnest thing to do
Did we win???
