this was not only a crucial training event, it was a awsome training event. everyone from tier teams to begginers walked away with somthing, and that was knowledge and tools.
the knowledge that was imparted from basices to advanced, although rushed, and for some maybe hard to absorb. it was still thourogh and very practical. the greatest knowledge that was imparted was the fact that time will be the basic unit of measure, not points. the fact that the criteria has changed has allowed for added realisim, and much closer gaps inbetween teams during competition. it will be your time that kills you....all ROE violations are now added time, just as in IPSC.
so now we know the criteria that you will be graded on as a cohesive team. it is your time/timing, and how well you work together and follow through together as a unit.
the tools we were given has either started your basic tool box, or enhanced a already existing toolbox.
fireing stance: isocolese & weaver
footwork
weapon transitions
weapon control ( DONT DROP YOUR bleeding WEAPONS!)
basic commands
body searching : male & female ROE
cover and holster
threat assesment
deep penatration
wall flood
T-section pinwheel
Aus-Pealoff
cursory searches
ROOM DUMPING
overall i learned a great deal, some of this was already stuff we had learned @ mini-CQC crackhouse, yet it appears others forgot. the tools we were given were not meant to be taken as doctrine or SOP, but to have the diffrrent skills sets to build your own SOP that suits your teams styles. all the details were implace, and the actors provided a variety of levels of intencity, so each and every time you dumped the house, even though you had drilled it 5 times, each time was diffrent.
i must put out there that the black sierra team has organized one of the finest training events i have been too. if you plan on making a team showing to future CQC comps, and you have missed this, i strongly suggest you make nice with a team that did attend. make plans on attending the next mini-CQC training event. if you want to place, this will be one of your top priorities.
postmans execution was excellent, although atimes i saw him strain to hold his bearing ( i knew you wanted to bust up a few times ol softy) while ripping into someone. "if she says STOP, I AM UNCOMFORTABLE, I am going to punch you!"
when admins says make weapond hot and red dots on, and you say "okay".....make sure you actually do it.<---you know who:smile:
bill was nice cop. when ever postie lost it and prescribed some beat face or jump in place, bill would just smile. treefrogs reprimand was particularly humorus.
so i gleened what i can, it appears i started the day sweeping major tittie, but at the end of the day, while still leaving room for improvement, left a impression.
special thanks and a shout outs to
tits
tommyboy's marine raiders

I am not half as good as I want to be, but I am twice as good as you think I am.
