Good call...and I agree, we cannot forget nontech techniques.
Like reading a topo map, using a compass, firing w/iron sights...
Good call.

LTC Jeff Shearer we spent some time w/sf at Bragg.
At the time, the Swedish K was a popular choice by the boys ahead of Uzi, MP5, etc.
We wondered why...and they cited simplicity and reliability.
An example of using simple over sexy.
