You triggered my memories of military training with your intro instructional voice. Great video as always. My wife will have a harder time finding me now. Thanks.
When I served in the Air Force as an aircrew member an Army Ranger was invited to brief us on the tactical portions of evasion. How to move without being seen or mitigate detection when holing up. He made quite an impression and we learned a lot from him. I remember thinking after he left that the enemy doesn't stand a chance against a large force of Rangers with a mission to destroy anything in their way.
It depends . The S.African SASP in Angola had a hard time because the Enemy used to hunt ther and was used to follow Tracks , and that country they knew very well . Not like the SASP .
The first Rangers at the battle of Anzio were sent too far forward while too lightly armed, and something like 700 were captured by crack German armored troops. Hitler then sent his most elite troops to push the American troops into the Med, but the 34th (Red Bull) Division stopped the Germans in hand-to-hand fighting. Hopefully the too-lightly-armed days are over. The greatest American trainer of soldiers, General "Iron MIke" O'Daniel, trained the first American Rangers in Scotland and Ireland. The training and the Rangers are still the toughest!
Fish hook, or J-Hook is textbook Whitetail deer behavior when they approach an area of interest, food source for example. They also use this when spooked and run away, they circle back.
And my family as well. Dad,1st Lieut. Army Ordnance WW2 Uncle, MSGT, Silver Star, Bastogne WW2 Gr Grdfather, Lt. General, Corps of Eng. WW1 Bro in law, 1st Lt, Army Aviation Vietnam KIA (I broke tradition & served in another branch...🙄)
@@baronedipiemonte3990 What blows me away is that only the tiny guys would fit and at times the plane would have to land with damaged landing gear, or if the pod was damaged and couldn't be rotated so the gunner could get out the poor guy was simply smeared onto the runway when it landed....and yet men STILL GOT IN IT ANYWAY. Again, how did they fit their giant titanium balls in?
Dang man. Last week you drop the amazing knowledge bomb of advanced training at pathfinder and this week stealth ops for shtf. Can only say thank you so much but dude thank you!!
That tip to use the "hide site" as a shelter against the weather, not just for "tactical" purposes, is one of the most sensible military-inspired tips I've heard so far. I think I'll just call it a "shelter site" or "safety site" for my own, civilian purposes. Thanks!
These classes build resiliancy and are very teachable moments for young people , you can apply the lessons learned in the field to life Great Job CPT. Andy !
God I wish I had this kind of knowledge in 85 I had to search high and low for books on subject . Thank god a bunch of LURP books came out in that era from nam .
I once spent about 30hrs straight, under a pile of brush I snake crawled into, on a hunting trip with my friends. They thought I was crazy. Natural concealment and cover is always the best.
Up popped a ranger out of a coconut grove, he was the most knowledgeable veteran you can tell by his clothes. Well he tells you 100 sentences per minute, and I will follow him because he has the content, i like his style as well. Because he can talk so fast in his explanation. Y’all better pay attention to what this man is telling us. Sound off, 1234. Cadence has a purpose! It doesn’t rhyme but you get the message! Good job Andrew.
Awesome video, i like the Dakota fire utilized in stealth mode, the warriors of our tribe would use that method hence (DAKOTA FIRE PIT) when were on the war path, hunting, most likely all times to avoid giving away their location to the ancient enimies, thanks for the video!
Outstanding as always. The socks over boots is a fun thing for the kiddos. I think I'll make em track each other. A little 8 y/o force on force and sere training. This is shaping up to be a fine Memorial Day. God bless all who are serving, have served, and those that passed. Peace upon all of their families.
Excellent block of instruction Andrew!!! Damn, the flashbacks you gave me in the beginning with your Instructor intro and WARNO to students...lol. Great advice for anyone wanting to traverse terrain and be low impact while getting to point A to B! Keep up the Fire!!!
not gonna lie, i usually don't expect to learn much new stuff on youtube, but i'll probably have to watch this a couple of times and maybe take notes to get it all in. thanks ranger andrew!
Another great video... May you have a blessed Memorial Day weekend... thank you for all you have done... and for all you do... For the things I have learned and continue to learn... thank you Memorial Day is a somber time ... Freedoms haven’t come free Freedoms cannot be taken for granted... God bless America.... again
Hello my Ranger friend, thank you for sharing this informative video. Your video brought back memories of my military days. The very best to you. Stay safe and healthy out there. 🤗
Excellent explanation of each item. I'm going to have to watch over and over to remember, not an issue at all considering how important this is. Thank you sir and bless you on this important weekend.
On of the weird benefits of working for ups is that most of my clothing is either brown or some kind of earth tone so I can wear it at work without getting in trouble so I kind of blend in with everything during this time of the year
Your video's are so calming. Compared to your drill my life is a picnic. Still, I like to apply your recommendations in my mundane life. Because your reality will become mine soon enough.
Never served in any military, but this stuff is very well explained and interesting. Good stuff. Easy to understand and good diagrams. Respect mate. Keep safe.
great video Andrew. I like the emphasis on control and discipline, would be so easy for the situation to fall apart and find yourself having a bad day.
I left an AT-4 at a hide site when I was at Sapper school (they threw it down next to me while I was sleeping). I got my Patrol leader a big no-go. Oof. Not my finest hour. I made up for it later by making two 40-lb satchel charges (with no sleep for a week) that worked perfectly and blew our final objective sky high!
Thank you for these excellent tips, techniques, and protocol. One may never need to escape and evade but knowing how would be a good thing. Again, thank you.😎💙💛
Hmm a suggestion... mayhaps try a kit mostly of 3d printed items.. such as whistle... tender box and more... and do an actual survival weekend with it.
hey there Kevin . you said in this video that you cant tell us everything due to it being classified . is there a difference between what is used today and what has been used in previous generations of the military . i.e. ww2 and or Vietnam that was classified but is now declassified . that can be used to improve what you have already told us . just a thought . this is now my goto survival info . i really enjoy your no nonsense approach . there are other youtubers that have good info although they water it down and spread it thin over many videos with alot of fluff and filler for entertainment purposes . your approach is by far the best for practical application . raw and brutal info with no nonsense . Kudos my friend .
Things have changed over the years with technology, enemy, urban dwellings, etc. however, many techniques are still the same. Some of the things that can't be said concern information between recovery forces and isolated personnel. I want to give a lot of information, but I can only disclose open source material and my own techniques and tactics. One thing that could be included is vignettes from survivors. I met a handful of survivors in my experience that have amazing stories.
@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft thank you for your time . the reason i asked is that i watched a military training video from ww2 about evasion behind enemy lines . it was an old black and white video .i was curious if you knew about any of those old tactics . if you would like i can see if i can find it again and post the link here . Camouflage for Evasion! - Military Survival & Special Ops Training Film - TH-cam
This is the most useful download of info I have found as a civvie. I take in as much necessary info as possible and as a hunter this was amazing additional info. Please keep more like this coming sir and thank you for your service!
Great Video Andrew, very similar to what I learned during my Military Service at the LRRP (Long Range Reconnaisance and Patrol) school. 👍🏻 Greetings from Germany
GREAT VIDEO !!! I've gotta hand it to you Andrew this was a fantastic video Mora Kachanski would be proud of you. I think that your channel has become one of the best Bushcraft and survival channels on TH-cam. Keep up the great work !
Excellent presentation! I completed SERE and the Special Survival A&B follow-on courses. I kept wanting to add comments related to your presentation but then I realized those were the classified portions you were intentionally leaving out. Excellent excellent content!
@FukTheGender Agenda SERE is unclassified. There are some add-ons called Special Survival A and SS B. Those contain classified and/or protected material. There are several schools that teach the full SERE program. But they usually truncate the training and soften it up for paying clients/students.
Excellent! Not sure how you find time to do it all. It's inspiring to say the least. I'm gonna amp up my game this week. Great, well thought out info. Liked the leaf writing!
Best part of Sunday ,more instruction and applied skill set training for advanced as well as everyday situations. Now will someone please gimme back my Snickers bar !! RLTW Guy Speight
Thank you sir for the useful intel, and your service sir. Remember those who gave us this freedom. God bless.
You triggered my memories of military training with your intro instructional voice. Great video as always. My wife will have a harder time finding me now. Thanks.
I appreciate how you take a military concept and show a civilian application.

That’s a good point!
Good job. Remembering my dad this Memorial Day. He was a 17 year old belly gunner on a B-24 Liberator.
And my family as well.
Dad,1st Lieut. Army Ordnance WW2
Uncle, MSGT, Silver Star, Bastogne WW2
Gr Grdfather, Lt. General, Corps of Eng. WW1
Bro in law, 1st Lt, Army Aviation Vietnam KIA
(I broke tradition & served in another branch...🙄)
The Greatest Generation. I'm surprised his balls fit, you ever SEE the belly gun pod?
@@asmith7876 those were some pretty close quarters and the small men in the unit pulled that duty.
@@baronedipiemonte3990 What blows me away is that only the tiny guys would fit and at times the plane would have to land with damaged landing gear, or if the pod was damaged and couldn't be rotated so the gunner could get out the poor guy was simply smeared onto the runway when it landed....and yet men STILL GOT IN IT ANYWAY.

Must have been thrilling. Can’t even imagine doing something like that at 17.
Something to go with this series, would be a video on how to conceal cooking smells, and scat. That, and concealing sounds of work.
You have the best videos on TH-cam. Real skills.
Dang man. Last week you drop the amazing knowledge bomb of advanced training at pathfinder and this week stealth ops for shtf. Can only say thank you so much but dude thank you!!
Ha!! That voice freaked me out! Reminded me of Ranger school, a long, long time ago. Excellent video brotha, you're a good teacher.

FFFFFFFFF Byyden and peeeelousy
We went over all of this during my basic training at Ft. Leonard Wood (minus hunting/fishing). Love this stuff so much I would it all again haha.
I want to also thank you for your service.
Thank you!
I'm glad you are one of our good guys!
Sunday morning coffee and RSFC outstanding AF! Thanks Andrew enjoy your day
YOU WILL DISAPPEAR INTO THE AREA URE IN
LEAVE NO BOOT PRINTS & BREAK NO FOLIAGE NOR BRANCHES. YALL GREAT JOB BROTHER
When Andrew puts on the make up you are in for a special treat!
Great advice ! It's time for us to brush the dust off our skill sets and get ourselves into shape.
Andrew you’re awesome. Do more of these escape and evasion videos. This and the urban survival vids are the best ones you’ve done
Fantastic job captain reminds me of when I served and I actually took out pin and paper and wrote notes
Useful for stealth camping for sure , like the hook approach method
God I wish I had this kind of knowledge in 85 I had to search high and low for books on subject . Thank god a bunch of LURP books came out in that era from nam .

" The Heros never came home".
You had me at “put distance between me and my X” new sub

Happy memorial day weekend bro thanks for all you do

Like that poncho "blanket" roll.
So comprehensive, you do have a great Training
Top notch info! You are an excellent instructor Sir.
It’s like having the Ranger Handbook explained by your platoon leader. Very nice, Andrew.
Excellent explanation of each item. I'm going to have to watch over and over to remember, not an issue at all considering how important this is.
Thank you sir and bless you on this important weekend.
Great video. I really like the escape/ evasion videos you do. Very informative, I learn something new every time.🇺🇲🙏
On of the weird benefits of working for ups is that most of my clothing is either brown or some kind of earth tone so I can wear it at work without getting in trouble so I kind of blend in with everything during this time of the year
Great Job Andrew. Excellent info.
Outstanding video . Rangers lead the way .🇺🇸
Great information and great presentation. Outstanding. Thank you for the videos, I always learn valuable things from you.
Well done Andrew. Presentation was succinct and progressed through steps for a successful extract!
Love how you bring in the tactical side of camping we may need to use it in the future.
Your video's are so calming. Compared to your drill my life is a picnic. Still, I like to apply your recommendations in my mundane life. Because your reality will become mine soon enough.
Never served in any military, but this stuff is very well explained and interesting. Good stuff. Easy to understand and good diagrams. Respect mate. Keep safe.
Excellent work and a good training video for some young men here, trying to learn.
Outstanding job!
Thank you so much for your service brother
great video Andrew. I like the emphasis on control and discipline, would be so easy for the situation to fall apart and find yourself having a bad day.
This has to be one of your best videos yet! Outstanding presentation and great info. Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video!!
Thank you brother. Key survival info well presented and explained. Thank you for your service.🇺🇸
Thank for all this great information

Good class brother. Been since 2006 since I’ve seen a proper class on good tactic
Thank you for these excellent tips, techniques, and protocol.
One may never need to escape and evade but knowing how would be a good thing. Again, thank you.😎💙💛
Coolest dude on TH-cam. Thanks for them survival tips. Keep these awesome videos coming.
Love the training & I’m gonna keep practicing & doing the things
Hmm a suggestion... mayhaps try a kit mostly of 3d printed items.. such as whistle... tender box and more... and do an actual survival weekend with it.

Solid video. Great content for the community. Excellent period of instruction
Thank you Captain, very instructive. Effective communication. Basic nitty gritty plan. Even a moron could follow up. Much appreciated lesson plan.
Thanks for uploading Andrew, much appreciated. Always good to have a plan for the avoiding someone else's irate husband scenario 👍
This is the most useful download of info I have found as a civvie. I take in as much necessary info as possible and as a hunter this was amazing additional info. Please keep more like this coming sir and thank you for your service!
Really entertaining and informational video. I would love to learn more about surviving in a hide site, and movement.
Most excellent presentation!!! I really enjoyed and also take notes on it. Do you have suggestions for avoiding infrared detection equipment
I immediately shuddered when you gave the knife hand. Great way to get a fat old grunts attention lol.
That was brilliant Sir! Thank you.
I love your effort
Another great video, you're a talented teacher. Lots of information packed into this video and it was all conveyed clearly.
Another top notch video! Have a great week Andrew.

Geronimo was a master of E&E
Thank you for serving Andrew!!! And thank you for all the knowledge that we need to survive!!!
Excellent presentation! I completed SERE and the Special Survival A&B follow-on courses. I kept wanting to add comments related to your presentation but then I realized those were the classified portions you were intentionally leaving out.

Excellent! Not sure how you find time to do it all. It's inspiring to say the least. I'm gonna amp up my game this week. Great, well thought out info. Liked the leaf writing!
This a great channel, thank you for taking the time to teach these SOP's. Much respect and thanks for your service! Love from Canada Brother!
Awesome video! Lead the way have a safe weekend
Good info Andrew 🤠
Always great knowledge shared
Awesome video buddy, thank you for sharing! This is great general knowledge for various scenarios that us outdoors men may encounter!
I always enjoy your videos, even the more military ones. It would be interesting to see you apply these same principles in an urban setting.
This is corporals corner on steroids. I love this channel
