Most people train to fight as individuals, but few ever learn how to fight as a team. That’s where small unit tactics come in. But are these tactics only for soldiers on the battlefield, or can they also be used to give law enforcement officers and armed citizens an edge in the real world? That’s what this episode is about.
In this transmission, we cover:
- What small unit tactics actually are and how they developed
- The roles and responsibilities inside a conventional rifle squad
- Why understanding these principles is essential for law enforcement officers and civilians
So pull up a chair and sit a spell as we talk about Small Unit Tactics. It's all inside this episode of the Pearl Snap Tactical Podcast!
