Fighting Handguns: History, Adventure And Romance Of Handguns From The Muzzle Loader To Modern Magnums

Fighting Handguns: History, Adventure And Romance Of Handguns From The Muzzle Loader To Modern Magnums Review



From the 1540s on, the handgun has been recognized as a handy weapon for individual fighters. Compared to other weapons such as the ax, sword, rifle and shotgun, it is light and compact, allowing it to be carried almost anywhere and deployed quickly when needed. For these reasons, throughout the centuries the handgun has endured as the best defensive weapon for most people, most of the time.

In Fighting Handguns, Jeff Cooper not only takes the reader through the development of this weapon from its beginnings in mid-16th-century Europe through the various iterations of single- and double-action revolvers and semiautomatic pistols, he also discusses some important aspects of carrying and shooting a fighting handgun under combat conditions.

INFANTRY DIVISION OPERATIONS, Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures, FM 71-100-2, Military Manual

INFANTRY DIVISION OPERATIONS, Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures, FM 71-100-2, Military Manual Review



Field manual (FM) 71-100-2 is a “how to” guide for the employment of US light, airborne, and air assault infantry divisions in combat. It describes tactics and techniques for the conduct of combat operations and the integration and coordination of combat, combat support (CS), and combat service support (CSS) functions.

Since the publication of the 1986 version of FM 100-5, the world and our Army have undergone significant changes. Our country has been involved in three key victories—Panama, the Gulf War, and the Cold War. Concurrently, the Army has undergone a force structure change, reducing the size of the Army and the number of forward deployed units
geared to counter a Warsaw Pact invasion. These external and internal changes have caused us to modify how we as an Army think and conduct warfare.

Military doctrine presents fundamental principles that guide the employment of forces. Doctrine is authoritative, but not directive; descriptive, not prescriptive. It provides the distilled insights and wisdom gained from the Army’s collective experience with warfare. However, doctrine cannot replace clear thinking or alter a commander’s obligation to determine the proper course of action under the circumstances prevailing at the time of decision.

The five Army operations tenets are the basis for the development of all current US Army doctrine, tactics, and techniques. Success on the battlefield will depend on our ability to fight according to these tenets: initiative, agility, depth, synchronization, and versatility.

Initiative sets or changes the terms of battle by action. It is the effort to force the enemy to conform to our operational tempo and purpose while retaining our freedom of action. This will require commanders to understand the intent of their commanders two levels above—
centralized planning but decentralized execution.

Agility is the ability to act faster than the enemy—a prerequisite for seizing and holding the initiative. Quickness permits the rapid concentration of combat power against the enemy’s vulnerabilities. It requires the commander to constantly read the battlefield, anticipate, make quick decisions, and act without hesitation. This may require committing forces quickly without complete information when situations are time-sensitive. Agility is both mental and physical flexibility—seeing and reacting rapidly to changing situations.

Depth is the extension of operations in time, space, resources, and purpose. The commander uses these factors in thinking in depth to forecast, anticipate likely events, and expand his freedom of action. He then applies them to arrange all available resources to attack the enemy
simultaneously and sequentially throughout the depth of the battlefield.

Time Drifters

Time Drifters Review



We are all intrigued by de ja vu experiences, our in-born skills, predilections, love and hate at first sight, attraction to places and things that can’t be explained.

Is it reincarnation as is the belief of many? Perhaps. Can memories be inherited, a part of our DNA? Recent brain and genetics research shows that indeed, it appears that some memories can be inherited, part of your make up as sure as your physical appearance and cell structure.

Can those inherited memories be strong enough to influence your behavior?

Annie, a young girl in Michigan, discovers clues that lead her to believe her father and Dana, her favorite uncle, traveled outside of our reality. Uncle Dana having the ability to drift between realities.

Harley Devlin, the wealthy founder of a electronics company, has always had an intense interest in the mind, history, religion, and the occult. His personal research leads him to believe that there are those predisposed to mind travel into other realities. He has recently developed a compulsion for personal power. More power than his money can buy. He has built a secret research facility to explore directed mind travel by stimulation of old memories with electronic brain implants.

Will Waner, an average thrity year old professional, is searching for his future. He is starting to question his place in life, his relationship with his father, his career. He is trying to understand why he has strong skills in martial arts. He knows that there must be more than it seems on the surface. He meets Harley Devlin. Devlin offers an adventure that Will can’t resist.


Mary Green, a middle-aged archeologist, makes the find of a life time only to have her happiness defused by her discovery of site contamination. How did a 1970’s artifact get deposited in her 1870’s dig?

Valerie Parski, a former FBI agent, is using her investigative skills to support the historic research of a famous university professor. The professor is trying to sort out the story of a witness to history. The man must be hallucinating. Artifacts he claim came from a dead Marine on Guadalcanal, a man he knew personally in WWI, have inconsistencies that would date them much later.

Valerie’s investigation leads her towards solving an old mystery. It also leads her to Will Waner and Devlin’s research facility.
