Lone Survivor, Movies and The Inadequacy of REAL Valor
Mad Duo Chris had a guest article appear on Military.com yesterday. Today it's on their front page in the list of "Top 9" carousel stories. It's an op-ed that's going to stir the pot - as will his questioning why the real story about heroic acts is not enough for...
Train Like a Samurai: Ten Arrows
Practice doesn't make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. Imperfect practice makes rehearsed. You've heard a lot of advice on different training philosophies - ways to maximize the results you achieve. The fact is, desultory training (grunts: desultory) is a...
OSS Cans – Operator Suppressor Systems
No baffles. 29 patents. A turbine engine in reverese. OSS Mission (Operators Suppressor Systems Mission) bills itself as the source "true next gen weapon suppression." Damned if they may not be right, and we found out pretty much by accident. Frankly we were...

Continued from earlier today. Yesterday I introduced my problem with regards to training 2 "gunfighters" who admitted they did not much want to gunfight (see Part 1 if you missed it). I discussed my believe that every person has something that would motivate them to...

Mindset: More than Acronyms and Color Codes
We're running this again because it fits right into this week's theme about EDR, EDC, SA and mindset. Mindset is more than than the memorization of some acronyms (though we do love us some acronyms), handy phrases like Sheep Dog and color codes. There, we said it....
In Dogs We Trust
This commercial is incredible. There are several organizations like this in the United States and others (places like Paws & Stripes and others). If you know of a service dog organization worthy of support (whether in the US, the Netherlands, the UK, anywhere)...
