s to identification in bob s case they started with a corpse with no fingerprints bob thought he was doing right by sterilizing himself prior to the attack but in reality he left gaping holes everywhere else that one corpse is what allowed a local insurgency to be broken the same techniques are used in afghanistan with significant success despite the lack of things like financial transaction records it s used stateside on a daily basis and all it takes is one sloppy sob to destroy everything whether you re a four man team nine man squad or distributed cells everybody has to have complete opsec uber alles hammered into them and practice it and the larger your organization the more likely someone is going to get sloppy discipline and vigilance is the key not only to success but survival as well it pays to have rules on who does what who contracts whom how and where and when all of this takes place and those rules have to be understood and enforced till next time stay frosty amigos posted in general info 17 comments putting some teeth in the tribe what do we need to be able to do posted on 13 04 2013 by treaded alright a new topic here anyway and a lot to write about now we re going to start digging into the process of actually building usable fighting skills and knowledge among your tribe members the next few entries are going to attempt to impart upon you some basic realities you ll be dealing with along with some nice simple tips to use when establishing your security force to set the record straight right now i m going to be referring to what i call a rural defense force rdf throughout this series that is simply the defensive element of your tribe the folks that actually defend the area this entry is going to deal with defining operational capabilities and using a simple training methodology operational capabilities are the tasks that you need want to be able to execute i e do you want to establish roadblocks conduct ambushes raids deliberate defenses etc you need to sit down and conceptualize what tasks your rdf will have to accomplish this is how you focus your training as your efforts need to be geared towards supporting these capabilities for the mil guys out there this is what we used to refer to as a developing a mission essential task list metl along with associated drills but we re going to go through this without the luxury of having higher echelon tasks and directives to work this out basically we re going to build a list of tactical tasks that we identify are critical to the defense of our tribal area the difference here is normally a metl goes no lower than a company but unless you re really fortunate chances are you won t have the kind of strength so i m going to make another convention at this point when i refer to metl what i am actually using are more akin to artep battle drills for a platoon and squad sized element training methodology is simply the way we re going to train before you begin this process it s a pretty good idea to go through a throughout terrain and threat analysis as an example if the threat is known to not and will not likely have armored vehicles then establish an anti armor ambush would be low on your task list if you need some help identifying tasks this is where the army field manuals can come into play take a look at artep 7 8 drill which lists tasks for the platoon and squad sized elements the lists in that manual should help you identify the kind of tasks you want to be able to accomplish are we going to use the info from that manual verbatim no we re not but for now use it to help identify tasks one thing about tasks right off the bat you need to understand that there are individual tasks and collective tasks individual tasks are the tasks that folks do as an individual i e applying a tourniquet is an individual task collective tasks are tasks that are executed as a collective element be it a buddy team fire team squad or platoon individual tasks usually support collective tasks i e an individual might acquire and engage targets with their rifle while conducting team fire and maneuver for now we re going to focus on collective type tasks dose of reality time there are some tasks which will probably be worthless and some you won t have the resources to accomplish an example of a worthless tasks for your purpose might be change formation mounted that task is designed for forces that are mounted in vehicles and have the terrain to actually change their physical association during travel granted if you live in the desert it might be worthwhile but that s just an example a task you might not have the resources to execute would be knock out bunkers now does that mean we ignore them not necessarily the possibility to adapt and develop techniques to deal with those tasks using our existing capabilities might just be worthwhile so we ve gone through our analysis familiarized ourselves with tasks and for shits n giggles we ve come up with this list of critical tasks to keep it simple we ll focus on one task for right now conducting an ambush sounds simple right welp there are different categories of ambushes hasty deliberate and different types point area l shaped etc don t get lost in the weeds at this point instead focus on the general task itself and identify the collective and individual skills required to support this task the graphic below illustrates how those individual tasks support the collective tasks sound training methodology dictates we need to be proficient in the individual tasks before we attempt collective tasks otherwise we ll not only waste time having to teach individual tasks while trying to focus on the collective tasks but our execution of the collective tasks will be sloppy at best that equates to a waste of training time and energy in the graphic notice i circled the engage targets individual task sounds simple enough but think about what that task entails it could include such supporting skills like load your rifle acquire targets apply elevation and windage to engage stationary and moving targets perform suppressive fire these individual skills are once again supported by such tasks as maintaining your rifle zeroing your rifle etc the key thing here i want to impart upon you is that we need to identify our collective task requirements and then work downward to identify the critical tasks and skills needed to execute those collective tasks by focusing on the individual tasks prior to training the collective tasks we avoid unnecessary training frustrators and save time and effort posted in rdf 1 comment defense obstacles part xii starting to set it all up posted on 05 11 2012 by treaded ok back to the grind i ve managed to catch up on the work around here after my little overseas soiree and it s time to start finishing this puppy off sometime either later this year or early next year the entire series on terrain is going to get published in an ebook so those that are valiantly printing and saving hold off because i ve got some additional info and points i m going to lump in with the existing info once i start editing it down in this entry we re going to begin looking at actually placing obstacles to work for us a quick recap on what we ve learned about obstacles thus far obstacles serve multiple purposes they are designed to delay and frustrate a threats movement funnel or channel the threat to where we want him to go deny critical terrain to the threat and buy you time to react they will not stop a determined threat and the golden rule of obstacles above all else anything designed to frustrate a threats movement towards you is likely to frustrate your egress from the area you ve emplaced the obstacles in alright we re going to split this up into two areas micro and macro micro for our purposes is going to be the land you directly control your homestead the macro portion is the remainder of your tribal ao and the terrain surrounding it we re going to tackle micro first because some of these measures you can take right now others might be a bit more conspicuous and you may want to hold off on them first up let s look at our homestead again remember in previous entries we cleared some land felled some trees expanded our pond noted by the blue area here s what we have to work with in a previous entry we also took a look at fields of fire now for the sake of argument for the remainder of this entry we re going to assume that the folks that live on this homestead are going to defend from the house itself during latter entries i ll cover some ways to actually harden the house and its surrounding structures but for now to keep it simple they re using the house so what we have to do is actually determine our fields of fire from inside the house to the surrounding terrain to do that we re going to use the obvious fields of observation we have windows now when you look out a window to determine a field of fire there s a golden rule get the hell back from it why a person in a window is an obvious target by backing off a couple of feet you reduce your silhouette the trade off is you also reduce your field of observation and fire think about it this way from a window you have a lot of terrain to observe someone looking at the house itself is going to be looking at those windows a much smaller field of target detection for the threat by backing off a couple of feet at least far enough back so your muzzle is still a foot away from the window you reduce your profile now once you ve decided which windows you re going to use and determined what you can see on your left and right you ll want to plot that on a drawing or map what we re actually doing here is building a sort of range card a tool the military uses to identify the characteristics of a defensive position so we ve drawn them out and come up with something like this simplified for the sake of illustration the light red areas represent the terrain that we can observe and fire on we re going to dig into this one just a bit deeper in the illustration which looks like a luchadore nightmare below notice that i ve highlighted the areas that were dark red in the previous illustration in orange on this one this is common terrain that more than one window position can fire on the term we re going to use for that is interlocking fires the old cowboy term for it was crossfire interlocking fields of observation and fire are high payoff meaning they are more lethal for the threat simply due to the fact that more than one shooter can engage targets in that area thereby increasing the chance that a threat in that area will be successfully engaged interlocking fields of fire are a critical aspect of defense and pretty darn important to how we position our obstacle sin the micro terrain sense remember we want our obstacles to channel the threat into our fields of fire and by positioning them to force them into or delay them in our interlocking fields of fire we increase our lethality against the threat notice the areas i have blacked out that is what s called deadspace deadspace is an area in which you cannot observe nor fire effectively into when you look out those windows firing positions you want to make sure you depict that deadspace because deadspace can be lethal to you the threat can use deadspace to move closer to its objective with less chance of being observed and engaged so finding and dealing with that deadspace is critical more on it below now we ve established our fields of fire we re going to look at what we have in the way of existing obstacles which is probably fences in the illustration below i ve overlaid the existing fences in relation to our fields of fire and deadspace we re looking decent to the west and east with good coverage however notice we re lacking in the north and south southwest what we have to do is determine where and what kinds of obstacles we re going to emplace in the immediate vicinity of our house to work to our advantage and offset our defensive weaknesses which includes the aforementioned deadspace so let s plug a few additional fences and wire obstacles into our layout and see how it looks in this illustration i ve depicted our additional immediate obstacle with blue lines to the west we have excellent coverage and good interlocking fields of fire and observation so the placement isn t so critical however i ve placed additional fencing in to frustrate the threats lateral north to south movement in that area remember the longer a threat is in your field of fire dealing with an obstacle the longer you have to engage them to the north we ve done basically the same thing to the west notice how the fencing has run all the way to the expanded pond with the way that area is laid out in relation to the pond it s going to be what we consider a less likely avenue of approach for a threat on foot during a direct assault in some of the other areas we ve fenced our deadspace off to help prevent threat movement into and out of that deadspace the key here is frustrate the threat s movement delay him in your field of fire and deny him easy access to your deadspace and now we have to deal with our deadspace first off is that amount of deadspace realistic to the north probably not so much houses typically have quite a few windows facing the normal main avenue of approach which in our case is the road you ll encounter normal headspace immediately around your field of observation fire think below or immediately beside a window and beyond any structures which brings us to the sore thumb in this illustration that huge amount of deadspace to the southwest that deadspace is something that just can t be ignored it s too close to our position well within hand thrown ordinance how do we deal with it well you can evaluate it against the remainder of your micro terrain and against your macro terrain maybe there s another homestead between those building in the illustration and the threats main avenue of ingress and make a decision whether to level it or leave it standing leveling it and the other offending structures will probably cure your deadspace issue but that may just not be an option especially if you re trying to keep your homestead productive another option could be to wire it completely off once again that may be too great an impact on production sow some nasty little surprises for a threat that tries to use that area your decision but personally i wouldn t want them that close to the homestead where one of my family or livestock could stumble across them early warning devices more acceptable another option is to establish a bunker or developed fighting position to cover that deadspace once again this has pros and cons fighting positions are only effective if they re being fought from and if you have reaction time to get to them all the foxholes trenches and bunkers in the world do you no good if they aren t manned so weight that decision against your capabilities and resources if you have inbound family...
