Welcome, Soldier.
Lets get one thing straight soldier, right off the bat. No one here will wipe your nose, no one will tuck you in at night. It's just you and me. If you listen to what I have to say you will...

The best way to defeat an enemy is to know what their capabilities and vulnerabilities are, and how to over come the enemy with the least amount of force or loss. The following pages will be quite intense. Study hard and practice ( Legally ) and the information you get here may save your life or that of another.
" Always mystify. Mislead and surprise the enemy if possible. And when you strike and overcome him, never let up in pursuit so long as your men have strength to follow, for an army routed, if hotly pursued, becomes panic stricken, and can then be destroyed by half their number.... Never fight against heavy odds, if by any possible maneuvering you can hurl your own forces on only a part, and that the weakest part, of your enemy and crush it. Such tactics will win every time, and a small army may thus destroy a large one in detail, and repeated victory will make it invincible. "
Thomas J. " Stonewall " Jackson
Interdiction
Raids, ambushes, mining, and sniping are the principal offensive techniques of the guerrilla force. When these techniques are directed against enemy lines of communications, key areas, military installations, and industrial facilities, the result is interdiction.
Interdiction is the prevention or hindrance by any means of the enemy's use of an area, route, or system. Interdiction is the cumulative effect of numerous small-scale offensive operations. Interdiction operations must be conducted over a wide area, making it difficult for the enemy to pinpoint guerrilla bases, causing him to overestimate guerrilla strength and demoralizing enemy troops.
Interdiction is not randomly attacking numerous unrelated targets. Interdiction targets are designed as a part of an overall plan to destroy or cripple a TARGET SYSTEM. A target system consists of an industrial system and its sources of raw materials; the transportation system over which the raw materials are transported; its source of power and method of transmission; the factory complex; and the means by which the finished product is transported to the user.
Target Acquisition and Analysis
When assigned a mission the guerrilla commander evaluates several factors. In the military, theses are known as METT-T.
Mission
Enemy
Terrain
Troops
Time
Targets are selected using six factors known as: CARVER
Criticality
Accessibility
Recognizability
Vulnerability
Effects
Recuperability
Attack special components that are hard to replace
Do permanent damage
Prevent cannibalization by attacking the same parts or targets of the same type
Attack cast materials ( They are brittle )
Attack the driven machine ( The part that does the work )
Cause the target to self destruct, if possible
Patrolling
There are two types of patrolling operations:
Combat patrols
Reconnaissance patrols
Individual Movement Techniques
Your units ability to move depends on your movement skills and those of your fellow guerrillas. Use the following techniques to avoid being seen or heard by the enemy:
Camouflage yourself and your equipment
Wear subdued colors that blend with your surroundings
Dim all shiny surfaces and break up the outline of your equipment using strips of cloth, tape, etc.
Tape or pad the parts of your equipment that rattle or are so loose that they may snag ( the tape or padding must not interfere with the operation of the weapon or equipment ). Jump up and down and listen for rattles.
Wear soft, well-fitting clothes.
Do not carry unnecessary equipment. Move from covered position to covered position ( taking no longer than 3 to 5 seconds between positions ).
To Move With Stealth:
Keep your weapon at port arms ( ready position ).
Be sure of your footing. Keep your weight on the foot on the ground while stepping.
Raise the moving leg high to avoid brush or grass.
Gently let the moving foot down toe first -- "Feel" the ground before putting all your weight on it.
Methods of Movement
In addition to walking, you may move in one of three other methods; low crawl, high crawl, or rush.
The low crawl gives you the lowest silhouette. Use it to cross places where the concealment is very low and enemy fire or observation prevents you from getting up.
