As you may be aware if you follow the blog, I have gone full time with the MVT training business. With the effort and time invested at the training site, improving it and getting it ready for the Combat Patrol Class, I have got somewhat behind on writing the sequel to ‘Patriot Dawn: The Resistance […]

The Feb 22-23 CRCD class is one of those that seems to have fallen in the cracks a little. I have classes filling up on both sides, but not this one. I hope to be able to run it , and not cancel it. I really need a minimum of eight in order for everyone […]

I came across the following video on YouTube. I found it very interesting. It is discussing the ‘fatal funnel fallacy’ and I find it very refreshing that some are starting to question the ‘conventional wisdom’ of CQB.

AAR – Combat Patrol Class An after-action review of the inaugural Combat Patrol Class run by Max Velocity January 18-20 2014 written by ApoloDoc. I have written of my first exposure to training with Max Velocity in a piece I titled “Walking in a Winter Wonderland.” That December 2013 class was a lot of fun […]

This morning I was reading a piece by Selko (H/T WRSA) and in the article he was talking about hobo vehicle armor. Here is the quote: “When he came to pick me up I noticed that rear lights on his car were smashed, broken. And inside car he had some kind of steel plates with […]

The Patrol Class is the most recent evolution in the training offered by Max Velocity. Completion of a Combat Rifle/Contact Drill is a requirement for attendance. That being said, you really must attend one of Max’s Patrol classes. I don’t mean to overstate, but it was some of the most effective tactical training I have […]

H/T to commenter ‘Submariner” for reminding me about this video. I originally posted it HERE – ‘Useful Patrol Training Video’ with the following comment: This is a useful training video.
