Peeling: An Explanation
Peeling:This simple but highly effective technique is mainly used to move to the flank; elements or individuals are in line facing the enemy threat and will ‘peel out’ to either the left or right. This is a good technique for moving along a linear feature, such as a road or ditch, while producing maximum suppressive […]
VIDEO: Airborne Fest, Brit Style!
I found this and couldn’t resist! However, while keeping this comment cryptic, this will be a good visual for those reading Patriot Dawn! No spoilers please! And then there is this one.

In this training video, there is a ‘client’ but the TTPs will work just as well without. This is some team training from Camp Fallujah ranges back in 2006. The illustrated drills are a good demonstration, but they […]
Update: Patriot Dawn: The Resistance Rises
