m-o-u-t use advice needed

[rjvemt1]

ive read about big games and scenerios being played on military base 'mout's(military operation in urban turrain). fort hood, texas, has a huge one (atleast it did when i was stationed there) called st. elijah village.does anybody know what office someoe would need to contact in order to get permission to use it?

[Jonno06]

yea,there is one here in FL too...they usually have scenerios there like every year(read in pb magazine)

ide love to play on one,seems fun

[rjvemt1]

most of the big games, 24hr games and scenerio games i read about take place in florida.you guys must have some awsome fields and field operators!

Contact Ft. Campbell's Welfare and Recreation office. They have full use of that MOUT range 2 times a year, which includes a big scenario.
The ladies there should be able to help you, and tell you which command to contact.

Since Ft. Hood's St. Elijah range is right next to the highway, I'm betting some civilian use is, or has been, authorized before. Contact Ft.Hood Range Control to see if it is possible.

army, did you get info on the mout in-line? ive ben looking and cant find any. thanks for the tip that sounds right, now i just need to find a field in the area to host it. maybe get a trade show organized. we would probaly get players from all over texas since ft hood is cental. ill send you guys an invite.

Yeah talk to the range contol guys. You might want to talk to Pappy as well, I'm sure he had to deal with some of the same issues when trying to set up the field out at BLORA.

[Jonno06]

Pappy = Dan = Owner of Black Market Paintball.

Black Market Paintball = Field on FT. Hood(BLORA), field in Killeen, use to have a field in Temple, store in Killeen, and I beleve a field in San Antonio. Ask over on these boards about where/how to contact him http://www.pbubb.com/ubb/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

Ah, sorry. I was 11M/11B20 Infantry team leader.

They were just starting to get the Avengers in when I was getting off active duty. Neat little dune buggies.

headcase,did you play paintball while you were there? are there a lot of players on post? since i started this thread i have come to find out that a guy named pappy from blora(field in killeen) tried to get permission to use the mout and he was told no.i was thinking that maybe a large petition headed by somebody with a little rank(who plays paintball)might help open the door.
