Simple to understand schema and illustrations 'Lessons Learned' comments that offer experienced insight. A glossary to get everyone speaking in the same terminology. With a 'no non-sense' approach, every skill and tactical battle drill in this book is specifically focused on light infantry patrolling tactics. For the experienced military professional, this book will be valued reference. For every other small unit leader - whether military, modern military re-enactors, or paintball and air soft competitors this book is sure to become your 'field bible'.

Reader Reviews
The night it arrived in the mail I started reading, soon I was skimming to take in all I could in the shortest time possible. It was everything I had looked for in similar books but in a format that was easy to grasp in a short time. Without a doubt, I think this is the best book of it's kind. Whatever small unit skills you wish to master, the foundation is here: hand signals, map and compass use, attack and defense principles for individuals and small units, and even a glossary for the innevitable avalanche of military abbreviations and acronyms. Having this book will save you a lot of time and money trying to piece the same information from a collection of other books. Take it camping or hunting or paintballing and you will not be disappointed. Comment | | (Report this)
