Why do I always see videos of infantry training in open fields? Why the fuck would modern infantry engage in open fields? That's a great way to get fucked up by armor, CAS, or artillery.

ELI5 - Why on earth would you have infantry out in the open exposed like that? They are best to take towns/cities/etc.

Well, laddo.
1. Because training in heavy vegetation sucks fucking ass. That's why.
2. We still do. And it sucks fucking ass. And taking a video of your PSG screaming profanities after mother nature thwacks him across the face for the umpteenth time on the STX lane is only funny in the context of the moment, not as an Army recruitment video.

1. Gotta cross open fields to get to the innawoods in most places
2. They're propaganda/recruitment videos, filming in the open allows John Q. Public to see all the "cool shit" you wouldn't be able to if it were filmed innawoods with trees n' shit in the way.
