What is Tactical Spoon?
1.
Tactical spooning is the militarised version of the civillian term
When applied to the military, the act of tactical spooning is not a romantic exchange, but rather an act of survival and the desire to stay warm in harsh environmental conditions. This protective posture can be utilised in either the sitting or laying position.
Soldier 1: Man it's so cold...my teeth are chattering and my hands are starting to freeze....dude, we have to tactical spoon.
Soldier 2: Okay.
