DOWNLOAD EBOOKJohn Spencer was a new second lieutenant in 2003 when he parachuted into Iraq leading a platoon of infantry soldiers into battle. During that combat tour he learned how important unit cohesion was to surviving a war, both physically and mentally. He observed that this cohesion developed as the soldiers experienced the horrors of combat as a group, spending their downtime together and processing their shared experiences. When Spencer returned to Iraq five years later to take command of a troubled company, he found that his lessons on how to build unit cohesion were no longer as applicable. Rather than bonding and processing trauma as a group, soldiers now spent their downtime separately, on computers communicating with family back home. Spencer came to see the internet as a threat to unit cohesion, but when he returned home and his wife was deployed, the internet connected him and his children to his wife on a daily basis. In Connected Soldiers Spencer delivers lessons learned about effective methods for building teams in a way that overcomes the distractions of home and the outside world, without reducing the benefits gained from connections to family.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMilitary Simulation (MILSIM) operations are not your run of the mill airsoft event. By their very nature, MILSIM events are intended to simulate military operations including the confusion and chaos that come with them. This training manual is not intended to teach basic airsoft skills or to provide recommendations for what equipment to buy for MILSIM events. Instead, it is about Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) that will assist airsoft players, teams and other small tactical elements to out-maneuver and defeat the opposing force to achieve victory at MILSIM events. This training manual begins by teaching airsoft players basic field-craft skills. Other topics including communications, close quarters battle techniques, battlefield formations, land warfare tactics, techniques and procedures build on that basic foundation. It is also intended to teach teams and other small tactical elements how to move tactically on the MILSIM battlement, how to use various forms of communication during operations, how to use drills to increase the survivability how to react to enemy contact, how to flank the enemy and how to use close quarters battle techniques and procedures to clear building rooms, hallways and stairways. It also explains the importance of communications, battle drills and security as well as how to apply these concepts to MILSIM. This tactical primer and training manual is designed to provide the tools to small teams and elements necessary to embrace the chaos on the MILSIM battlefield, to take the fight to the enemy and to achieve victory.More importantly, this tactical primer and training manual is intended to provide a framework for airsoft teams and tactical elements to modify the tactics, techniques and procedures contained herein to better fit their play style and to make them more effective. On the MILSIM battlefield, you must be more effective, more efficient and more flexible than your enemy to prevail. It is game of wits where the best tactics win.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis fascinating book is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time. In this sense, nearly all Americans are "Albion's Seed," no matter what their ethnicity may be. The concluding section of this remarkable book explores the ways that regional cultures have continued to dominate national politics from 1789 to 1988, and still help to shape attitudes toward education, government, gender, and violence, on which differences between American regions are greater than between European nations.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExplosive, revealing, and intelligent, The Red Circle provides a uniquely personal glimpse into one of the most challenging and secretive military training courses in the world. Now including an excerpt from The Killing School: Inside the World's Deadliest Sniper Program BEFORE HE COULD FORGE A BAND OF ELITE WARRIORS... HE HAD TO BECOME ONE HIMSELF. Brandon Webb's experiences in the world's most elite sniper corps are the stuff of legend. From his grueling years of training in Naval Special Operations to his combat tours in the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan, The Red Circle provides a rare and riveting look at the inner workings of the U.S. military through the eyes of a covert operations specialist. Yet it is Webb's distinguished second career as a lead instructor for the shadowy "sniper cell" and Course Manager of the Navy SEAL Sniper Program that trained some of America's finest and deadliest warriors-including Marcus Luttrell and Chris Kyle-that makes his story so compelling. Luttrell credits Webb's training with his own survival during the ill-fated 2005 Operation Redwing in Afghanistan. Kyle went on to become the U.S. military's top marksman, with more than 150 confirmed kills. From a candid chronicle of his student days, going through the sniper course himself, to his hair-raising close calls with Taliban and al Qaeda forces in the northern Afghanistan wilderness, to his vivid account of designing new sniper standards and training some of the most accomplished snipers of the twenty-first century, Webb provides a rare look at the making of the Special Operations warriors who are at the forefront of today's military.
