Can anybody relate to this thread? Did the Army (for those of you who were in the Army) teach you; when you are Ambushed--Attack. It may save your life or save you from being seriously injured. It saved me this week. Thanks Uncle Sam.


All fun aside.... Ambush attacks are a common tactic that you will (likely) experience sometime during your lifetime.

"You will never know when you will be attacked - it just happens".

Capt. Daniel Morgan


Editor's Note: Capt. Morgan is former commander of Headquarters and
Headquarters Company, 3rd Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault).


Counter ambush tactics will improve your reaction time and might save your life.


Now the kids here can make fun of "Cap'n MORGAN" if they like and even dress up like a popular rum running pirate and assume the one leg on a keg position...
