A little different take on presenting skills. Thanks for watching Team, hope you enjoy it! I’ll continue to work through some additional videos that demonstrate the standard for those that presented. And as a word of caution - in a contested environment, fires, shelters, and some movement techniques may not be advantageous - keep your powder dry, your head on a swivel & stay STOKED.

Good information Bill A few notes, I learned in the Rangers: 1) Once out of the immediate danger area, skin color is obvious in woodland area, so camo all exposed skin. Or at least wear camo headnet and green/camo gloves. 2) If pursuers are using K9, use either pepper spray or red pepper on route you are taking. This will temporarily inhibit their sense of smell. 3) When getting water, put container opening downstream so less debris will get inside. 4) And of course, noise and light discipline.

Pepper and other chemicals do not help against tracking dogs. Not even tear gas. Neither does wading in rivers or swimming across lakes. Making distance is the only way to lose tracking dogs in non-urban terrain. Dogs have only a few hours of stamina for a chase. In urban areas you can mix your tracks amongst all the other peoples' smells.

​@@reynolddovkin2337 apparently you have never seen a tracking dog that got a nose full of pepper spray or cs powder. Most dogs track from scent on the ground so yes getting into a stream or swimming a lake will lose them but one that tracks from the sir is a whole different game. One of the best ways to screw up a tracking dog and was use by sog in nam against the nva tracking dogs was CS powder and Cocaine

I've already made plans for bugging out on foot from my house thru the woods and mountains. It's very important to set things up from where you live to disappear fast should the need arise and train your spouse and kids if any. The way I've done that is wife loves to hike. She just doesn't know yet that I'm showing her things she doesn't know yet.

Damn mosquito had me slapping my ear! Great video! Always great to see a first Sargeant run😂!

Story time: when I was young I regularly metal detected forests and this was not allowed. Needless to say sometimes this let to being spotted by the foresters. I would see their jeeps most of the time and if you are in camp standing still someone driving a car most times will not be able to see you. They were more likely to spot you if they were out of the car. In which case I would run to break line of sight. The other thing I would do is run visibly in a straight line to a parking place. The foresters know where they are and know the forest like their pocket. So if they think they are smart they will jump in their car as you gained sufficient distance and they will drive off in the direction where they think they can cut you off or where the parking is. Once I would be out of sight I would typically hide a bit in non logical place. Forests here are many time production and pine meaning large lines of sight from roads. But there will be dents in the terrain that are just high enough to lay flat behind or there is a carpet of blue berry bushes. They are very low (30cm and max around knee height) but it is perfect as the forester will see through the pine forest while driving and it looks like he can see all he will assume you are in a more dense brush rich part or a Ditch instead. While he chases ghosts you hop from forest plot to forest plot. For the forest I knew very well I had a predetermined exfil route and plan. When detecting I was full camouflaged but when walking into the forest I would park far away (hour plus walk). My clothes would be colorful and standard hiking apparel. The backpack too. When I got to the place where I would detect: change clothes and cover the backpack with a camo rain cover. On the way back to the car: reverse out of camo and hike back. In one case I was unsure if the foresters by now would not be wise enough to check the third parking so I actually ditched the backpack as it contained my gear which could tie me to the misdemeanor. And sure as hell they were there. But different appearance and no backpack so they didn’t even ask questions. As they were there I added another loop to my hike and on the way back they were gone, got my gear out of the forest and left 😅 being chased by real people is awesome

Good stuff Stoker, Have learned quite a bit about evasion by tracking and observing how the Sasquatch travel through the forest, and how they observe us traveling through the forest. Most of the time you will never see them, but even they make mistakes on occasion, especially the younger ones. They definitely move through the forest much quieter than we do.

I guess being a person of interest for a couple of government agencies for over two decades, teaches a lot about evasion, counter tracking and just how stupid some of these people in these agencies are.

I still had to face the unauthorized absence, missing ship’s movement, and other minor stuff I accrued along my 72 day journey but it did make me realize some things about the psychology of escape and evasion in a real life setting

Very good - I would only add have only necessary things out when in hold up site. Have most things packed and ready to haul it in case you need to move in a hurry.. pack a head bug net that weighs just an ounce but will allow better sleep and wearing it breaks up body contour. Have a couple of old film roll cases packed with cotton balls soaked in ammonia. Most animals hate it and will help keep them away while you sleep and may mask your natural scent somewhat.

To make this even better carry 5 X the amount of trip wire required. Set up several fake traps. The trackers will get complacent, then have one being the real claymore.

Also they weight very little and take no space.
