August 30, 1996 Las Delicias, Colombia - Fhe FARC attacked the Las Delicias military base in the Putumayo department. The Colombian military lost about 54 dead, 15 wounded and 60 captured. A surprise attack had been carried out at night after extensive intelligence gathering, and 15 hours of fighting resulted in the complete destruction of one of the military's rural bases. This attack is usually considered as the beginning of a series of FARC offensives designed to exploit existing vulnerabilities in rural military bases and to showcase the guerrilla groups' strength in the eyes of the GOC (Government of Colombian) during the presidency of Ernesto Samper Pizano and the international community. GOC elite forces were mobilized in response to these attacks. The FARC's leftist guerilla fighters have considerable capabilities in infantry warfare, covert training by Cuban and Chinese Special Forces elements has been suggested. US Special Forces were employed in the GOC response as "advisors" and "trainers" leading covert helo attacks and LRRP type missions against the FARC.

BDU Uniforms. Suggested headgear to be either a helmet, woodland boonie hat or woodland patrol cap.
FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia): Olive Drab Uniform. Suggested headgear to be either an OD boonie hat, OD Patrol cap, or beret (green or black).
Military uniforms are required for the whole OP both on and off the field of battle. We encourage operators to dress the role, but of course any military uniform is allowed. If you have "both" bring both, we may need you to adjust force levels otherwise arm bands will be available to designate forces if required
If you do not have modern gear, no problem! We have had several inquiries from participants who want to come to the OP but aren't sure they have an "authentic uniform". Don't worry! Uniform authenticity is not critical. Attitude is more important. Try your best. It is easy to put together a uniform at little expense. Do your best, be creative, and that will be fine. If you have a full authentic uniform that is great, bring it out and be a star!
Remember... Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance!
See you in the field!
