10 STEP
DRILL for TRACKERS 




by Kevin Reeve, onPoint Tactical

Tracking humans is an apex predator behavior.  No one moves without leaving a trace 
of their passing and learning to track is not hard, but it requires effort. The process of
learning to track may come best from learning to track oneself.

We are part of this planet today because our ancestors could track and hunt.

Advanced urban Survival  
 
Advanced Urban Escape and Evasion
This class includes a strong emphasis on the manufacture of improvised tools and equipment from scavenged materials.

This course will add new skills to the Urban Escape & Evasion graduate but will primarily focus on field applications. You will learn how to make useful E & E tools, then spend time scavenging the urban area, finding the materials needed, and actually manufacturing them.

In addition, students will be required to obtain food, water, and shelter and remain overnight in the city.

They will need to avoid capture, and they will be required to complete several tests or scenarios that will require advanced students to truly apply their Scout and urban survival skills.

BOSTON
Terrorist in your Backyard: 
What to do after locking the doors. 




by Kevin Reeve, onPoint Tactical

My wife, Susan, happened to be up late, when a friend alerted her to activity on the Boston Police Scanner. It was 11pm Boston time when she listened 'live' to the car chase with the suspects of the Boston Marathon bombing.  She heard the gunfight, the bomb explosions, the fugitive escape through the police barricade, calls for EMT's for wounded police officers, and information flowing in about the carjacking,and kidnapping of the owner of the Mercedes.  Total mayhem.  And then finally the announcement:

The terrorist, who had killed 3 and wounded more than 260 people 2 days earlier, was on the loose, considered "armed and dangerous" with firearms, IED's and had just used his stolen vehicle as a weapon to mow down officers.  The Governor was ordering a "lockdown."

Here were my thoughts and recommendations at the time, and more of what we now know.

Counterintuitive Strategies 
for Facing
an Active Shooter
by Kevin Reeve, onPoint Tactical

After Paris
and San Bernadino, people have asked me to explain effective ways to respond to active shooter situations.  

It is an incredibly challenging problem to which there are no easy answers due to the individuality of each situation and the different types of targets, ie. malls, schools, churches, parking lots, trains, restaurants and sports stadiums etc., but here are some thoughts...
