Book Description
A paintball team can be as devastating on the course as an armed, trained and ready fire team of professional infantrymen. The fundamentals of paintball are not only marksmanship, but also the ability to move as a team, react to a threat and overcome the objective with force. To think quickly and effectively, and react decisively to any threat. It's more fun to kill on this playing field than to be killed and knowing how to maneuver yourself and your team to victory are the keys to success. This book is intended as a primer or refresher for those with little or no experience with or knowledge of modern military doctrine or infantry tactics. This handbook is by no means complete in all aspects or guarantees victory in every engagement. But this handbook will give you some insight as to the actual methods used by our and other forces in areas of the world in which real conflicts are a reality. None of this material is classified or restricted from public access. This book is based on the authorsâ hands on experience and training from 11 years in the U.S. Army Infantry. The author has served as an enlisted member of Mechanized, Light and Anti-tank Infantry units and brings some of his experience to print for the paintball enthusiast.

Light Infantry Tactics for Small Teams
Author: Christopher E. Larsen

ISBN: 9781418472078
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
There were no marching bands welcoming home returning troops from Vietnam, no ticker-tape parades for its heroes and no celebrations in Time Square. Instead, returning Vets were confronted with a range of reactions, not the least of which were indifference, silent disapproval, criticism, hostility and even contempt, in some quarters, for their lack of cleverness in not avoiding service in a war zone. Most returning Vietnam warriors were bewildered by the reactions of their fellow countrymen; but, then how could they possibly comprehend the psychological phenomenon which was only beginning to take hold and would later be named the "Vietnam Syndrome", a phenomenon which, at its extremes, was manifested in a revulsion to all things military? Even those who were proud of the returning servicemen and women were hardly effusive in their praise and greeted them with only muted enthusiasm. Most of these young veterans of an undeclared war had been shaped and molded in their formative years by the patriotic fervor which seized America during World War II and continued for perhaps a decade and a half after V. J. day. But, American society had profoundly changed in the 1960s with a shift in emphasis away from national goals to more individual ones such as civil rights, sexual liberation, pacifism, academic freedom, consciousness raising and a reaction against the excesses of the "military industrial complex", ironically named by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The cataclysmic cultural revolution of the 1960s collided violently with the more nationalistic goals of containing the spread of international communism and curbing the expansionist policies of the Soviet Union and Red China. Those who actually fought the Vietnam War became collateral victims of a wrenching cultural war, not of their own making; for the core values of these young men and women had, for the most part, not changed. Just as the World War II generation was imbued with traditional values of patriotism, loyalty to one's comrades, anti-totalitarianism and democratic freedom, most heroes of the Vietnam War were similarly grounded. The major difference is that while the former were celebrated, the latter were largely forgotten. Last Full Measure of Devotion calls upon us to revisit this remarkable generation of military heroes and, at long last, accord them the recognition withheld from them for almost four decades. The 22 individual profiles of Vietnam heroes contained between these covers are meant to be representative of the vast majority of Americans who served with honor in that lonely and beleaguered country on the South China Sea, more than thirty-five years ago.
