I have a thread here about some training classes I'm going to be running in February.

I'd like to know what sorts of classes folks might be interested in over in Idaho this summer and fall? Courses could be anything from home defense, to irregular warfare, or anything in between. Thoughts?

The land navigation stuff would be cool.

I've tried putting together firearm skills classes for some groups and they just don't want to put in the range time.

Basic IFAK components and practical application (stop the bleed ) was more popular.

Your APC rope course is good stuff, the application of the 'A' frame is a good build. We did rope bridges

and other camp gadget type stuff, good for team building.

Search and rescue skills are always good also.

I should clarify that this is classes for Rearden Armament, my own company. It is not APC related. While the American Pioneer Corps teaches leadership and all sorts of outdoors skills, which happens to include basic shooting skills, Rearden Armament is a private military/intelligence/security company. These courses cost money, and are meant to be focused specifically on offensive, defensive, and special operations forces task training.

Urban assault, reconnaissance, MOUT, breacher (mechanical and explosive), etc.

Though I'm happy to arrange a TCCC or combat lifesaver course if there is enough interest.

Always ready to learn new shit and punish my body in new ways.

Small unit tactics would be cool. 4-6 man teams

Yes, with problem solving incorporated

I'd like to put together a weekend event that combines land nav and communications.

Something like this:

- Have 2 - 3 teams
- First team navigates to a point, finds a message with instructions and a grid square
- Communicate gridsquare to second team
- Second team navigates to gridsquare, finds message
- repeat until course is complete
I know I'll never go home.
So set fire to your ships, and past regrets, and be free.
