Comments on the Small Kill Team (SKT)

OK, I’ll bite. The original article was here: To me, this was an interesting summary of the Small Kill Team (SKT) concept within the US Military, combined with some good stories. The general idea is that you would deploy two sniper teams with protection assets (machine-guns) at a strength of 4-6 men, times two, because […]

HEAT 1 moved from 8-11 to 15-18 April

Occasionally I make a hash of the Training Calendar, and schedule a class which does not fill for some reason; mainly because scheduling is like throwing mud at a wall….. This just happened with the April 8-11 HEAT 1 class. So I have moved it back a week to April 15-18. I am guessing it […]
