Letter Re: Advice on Where to Learn Practical, Tactical Skills
Sir:
USRSOG conducts
a civilian S.E.R.E. (Search Evasion Rescue & Escape) class once
a year. They teach primitive fire-building, Evasion techniques, field
camouflage techniques, some plant identification, hand-to-hand [fighting]
techniques, natural cordage making, [flint] knapping and a bunch of
other things like primitive shelter making. These guys are hardcore
and I’m blessed to have known them and took their class last
year. This year's class is April 27-28-29 and I think there is still
time for any last minute sign-ups but your readers will need to contact
them right away. Students also need proof that they are right with
the law by producing a CCW license
or letter from their sheriff stating that they have no outstanding
warrants. They don’t want to teach
bad people [potentially] bad things. The cadre are all made up of retired
[U.S. Army] Special Forces, Rangers, SWAT,
so the stories they tell are worth the price of admission alone, which
is $250. Not a bad deal for the knowledge
you get in return. - A Reader
