U S Army Warrior Ethos And Combat Skills Handbook

This is the Soldier's Field Manual. It explains how to perform the combat skills needed to survive on the battlefield. All Soldiers, across all branches and components, must learn these basic skills.

Modern combat is chaotic, intense, and shockingly destructive. A soldier will experience confusing and often terrifying sights, sounds, smells, and dangers—and he must learn to survive and win despite them. This field manual, containing the essential combat skills the U.S. Army teaches its soldiers, is the Army’s most recent edition, which has been completely updated for Lyons Press by the soldier who wrote the manual for the army: Sergeant First Class Matt Larsen. Distributed to all soldiers, this is the must-have guide for those who want to know how U.S. Army soldiers are trained to prepare for--and perform during--combat. It includes photos, illustrations, and diagrams throughout depicting weaponry, combat maneuvers, warrior drills, survival techniques, fighting positions, camouflage, and basic field medicine.

BUILD THE MIND AND SPIRIT OF A TRUE WARRIOR! Current edition TC 3-21.75, big 8.5" x 11" - large, clear text & extensive illustrations. 300+ pages - complete & unabridged! This edition supersedes the old FM 3-21.75 and FM 21-75. "Batteries last hours, books last decades. Get the print edition!" What are the key differences between the seasoned soldier and the untrained person? Two words: character and capability. CHARACTER means possessing a clearly-defined, well-founded system of values and ideology: honor, loyalty, esprit de corps, personal standards, collective and individual responsibility. CAPABILITY means possessing the knowledge and training to act correctly and effectively under any circumstances, using skills both innate and learned, to defeat human enemies and challenges of environment - and achieve success, whatever the odds. The combination of these qualities creates the warrior - a person whose greatest asset is not the mere capacity to apply violence, but the ability to walk tall, confident and unafraid in the face of any danger. Covering an astonishing variety of topics, this unique manual may be the single greatest source of character- and capability-building education ever made available under one cover for military personnel and civilians alike.

Those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, and what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn."
