non-fiction writing contest. The contest prizes include:
First Prize: The writer of the best contributed
article in the next 60 days will be awarded two transferable Front
Sight "Gray" Four Day Training Course Certificates. This
is an up to $4,000 value!
Second Prize: A three day course certificate from OnPoint
Tactical. This certificate will be for the prize winner's choice of three-day
civilian courses.
Third Prize: A copy of my "Rawles
Gets You Ready" preparedness course, from Arbogast Publishing
Round 18 ends on September 30th, so get busy writing and e-mail us
your entries. Remember that articles that relate practical "how to" skills
for survival will have an advantage in the judging.
The author spent his time in the Army working in Long Range Reconnaissance
and Surveillance (LRRS) and 11B scout units. He recently returned from a tour
in
Iraq. This article is abased upon his hands-on experience, rather than doctrine
and manuals.
