MVT: Retrospective & Looking to 2018

I just completed my final class of the year, and I’m looking to consolidating over the winter, do some writing, and prep for 2018. Some of what was said in the class after action on Sunday got me to thinking, hence this look back and forward to what we are doing with MVT. Last weekend […]

DKX M7 Hard Armor Plates

Review: Georgia Mobile Class October 2017: Steve

Review: Close Quarter Battle Course & Long Range Marksmanship Course: Chris
