Course Description: Patrolling I is a formal course taught in a professional environment by prior service members of the U.S. Marine Corps and the U.S. Army’s premier 75th Ranger Regiment. This course lays the foundation required in order to work with a team to conduct various types of operations in real world environments. The proven principles and techniques taught in this course have been adapted to provide maximum value for the citizen operating with the expectation of little or no support. Students are encouraged to bring their rifle and gear to see what works and what doesn’t. However, you can take this course with no gear. This is a non live fire course.

I've trained with GMTG in the past and took a ton away from it. While they do firearms training as well, I challenge anyone to find trainers putting on a patrolling type of class. I would be signing up for this class if I didn't work.

I have taken a few classes with GMTG and I have always been satisfied with the knowledge i received in each class. I have not seen another training company offer such a wide course selection, and  I rank GMTG as one of the better training organizations that I received training from.

I look forward to taking more classes with GMTG in the future.

We still have slots available.

This is an excellent opportunity for those looking to move forward from weapon manipulation.

We will be conducting some team live fire drills after the class for those that want to stick around.
