I’ve spent the better part of the last couple years (to be honest tactics and strategy have always been a big interest of mine) studying small unit tactics from different perspectives in an attempt to discern those that might be practical for today’s concerned citizens, including myself. I wanted to go beyond the typical self defense tactics though, and delve into something deeper, and maybe more taboo.

Popular culture and politicians want the “regular” (I use this term loosely, since many of the men I’ve trained with are anything but regular) guys to think tactics and tactical training are reserved for those in the employ of such “elites”, and “regular” guys don’t have any use for them. They want “regular” guys to think that if they find themselves interested in such things, they are hobbyists, LARPers, or “doomsday preppers” and that they have no practical need for such knowledge or…

On the Guerrilla, His Ecology and His Communications

The Guerrilla must recognize three critical points:

If you have not already, be sure and order your copy of The Guerrilla’s Guide To The Baofeng Radio.

Take Heed and Prepare Accordingly.

Nothing Sacred

“How can reverence of the dead be acceptable or expected when the sexualization of children is increasingly being forced into commonplace? Who are you to stand in the way of progress, in the face of the culture of Western self immolation? A society that tolerates any degree of it is a society already in steep decline. Having no first principles to stand upon, no level of depravity is too low. They’ve indeed come for your kids, while murdering your culture, and you and I shall be next.”

This was posted by the Director of Operations of the company that the mayor hired to remove my ancestors monument. This is very unprofessional. I had to exhume my ancestors remains yesterday. And something like this should have never been posted. pic.twitter.com/bVFlZF9par

“It’s been a long time in the making, but the book is finally out. With chapters on communications planning, improvised antennas, operational considerations for sustainment, tactical and clandestine purposes, digital operations and yes, encryption, this book is an easy to follow how-to manual taking you from whatever your knowledge base may be and takes it to the next level.”

From the Amazon Product Description:

The Guerrilla’s Guide To The Baofeng Radio is a handbook for those finding themselves in an austere environment, an underground resistance, or going into harm’s way with one of the most common pieces of communications equipment in the world. Going far beyond simple programming or what’s written from the Amateur Radio perspective, this manual goes in-depth on how to communicate, creating a communications plan, improvised wire antennas, digital operations and encryption in an easy to follow, step-by-step format based on combat proven methods. Whether you’ve just invested in a few of the inexpensive radios for an uncertain future or find yourself in rough corners of the world, this manual covers how to create communications where there otherwise would be none.
