Up till now  I have been posting with a tactical theme whenever the idea strikes me. Increasingly, those tactical posts are getting interspersed with political comments, it just can’t be helped given the situation we find ourselves in. So, the purpose of this post is to encourage interaction and  invite ideas from the readership for future tactical blog posts. Put it in a comment and […]

‘Patriot Dawn: The Resistance Rises’: I am grateful and relieved to see the overwhelmingly positive response to ‘Patriot Dawn’. I have not yet been able to begin the sequel, despite many calls for when it will be published. I have some projects I have to get done first and then I will get onto it. […]

I have been making some observations lately that have prompted me to write this post. It’s important that I try and get my thoughts across accurately because with all subjective tactical commentary there is a danger of being misunderstood, or alternatively egos and ingrained ideas prevent proper understanding of the point being made.  I have commented before about two related topics: 1) The prevalence of CQB and ‘tacticool’ firearms training, often passing for real tactical training. 2) The effect this has on what I see out there masquerading as tactics.

I updated the description information for ‘Patriot Dawn: The Resistance Rises’ to try and prevent any progressives buying it by mistake and then getting all upset and writing me one star reviews on Amazon!: The United States has descended into Civil War. The storm was rising for some time, a Resistance in the hearts of […]

I’ve posted about this before, but I have had two comments on Amazon from someone buying both ‘Contact’ and ‘Rapid Fire’. I have put a note on the book description on Amazon but I can see how it is easily missed: I do not recommend that you buy both the books, ‘Contact’ and ‘Rapid Fire’. They are simply designed for different audiences, not […]

I posted before about my plans for a training site: HEREWe have now purchased the land. The site is in the Blue Ridge Mountains in WV, across the State Line from Winchester VA. It’s in the north-east tip of WV that adjoins VA, MD and PA (those coming to classes will get strip maps will exact […]

I had a comment a while back on one of my posts, asking if I had video to illustrate infantry attack and maneuver, break contact etc. I have been looking for what is available on YouTube. Here is what I have found so far: Plt Sgt’s Course live firing on C range Brecon This video(above) is of either a company or platoon attack on a live firing range at the […]

Patriot Dawn: Reviews! Calling on all you readers who enjoyed the book: I just got another garbage 1 star review on the book that was clearly not a real review.  The book is starting to gain exposure and is becoming a target of progressive trolls who don’t want Patriots to read it. I know judging […]

I have been busy expending a lot of energy and drive time looking for some land to use as a training site. We have just signed a contract on 100 acres, due to close in less than two weeks. The land is in the Blue Ridge Mountains in WV, across the State Line from Winchester VA. It’s in the north-east […]

Peeling:This simple but highly effective technique is mainly used to move to the flank; elements or individuals are in line facing the enemy threat and will ‘peel out’ to either the left or right. This is a good technique for moving along a linear feature, such as a road or ditch, while producing maximum suppressive […]
