Course Book

Recommended Gear

Chest Rig

  • Should hold all your personal tactical gear for a 24-48 hour patrol period

  • I don’t recommend plate carriers for training as the added weight and heat detracts from the experience

Optics

  • We will be running OP’s, optics are a force multiplier

  • Day/night/thermal

  • We will cover some thermal mitigation and detection.

Radio

  • VHF/UHF handheld like the Baofeng

  • I can provide some if you don’t have one.

  • Earpieces and speaker mics help for security ops.
