01. In keeping with the laws of the nation of residence of the individual Citizen or Noble, ensure that you are fully aware of the relevant laws in the local area before attempting to exercise any of the training in the following videos. These videos are presented for instructional purposes only.

02. The following two playlists at YouTube are the work of Gunnery Sergeant Brent Downing, United States Marine Corps, a long-service veteran of numerous combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan. These are the most coherent explanations of basic military tools and non-special forces small unit formations and operations that the IGH has managed to find, to date.

03. Do not attempt to watch these videos all at once; spread the playlists out over a week or two.

04. Again, the following are for instructional purposes, only.

05. Playlist 1 -- Military Instructional Videos

06. Playlist 2 -- OPFOR/Enemy Forces Weapons and Equipment

07. The following two playlists are more strategic in nature, rather than being in the tactical realm. The Battlefield Series is one of the best series of it's kind ever produced. It will form the basis of theater- and strategic-level training when the Kreigsakademie is formally seated, video hosting allowing.

08. Note that some viewers may have issues viewing some videos, due to zone restrictions. A workaround has been found, by copying the YouTube link, and pasting it to the Proxfree.com website.

09. Battlefield Series: World War 2

10. Battlefield Series: Vietnam -- This is distinct in character from the WW2 series, which is oddly appropriate to the subject.

11. The following playlists were assembled before the Duke of Appinfeldt's association with the Empire began. They are intended to provide a very general overview of basic drill and tactics. Note that a Close Order Drill Manual unique to the Empire is being worked on.

12. Basic Training Series

13. On Generalship

14. Weapons of West Point -- This playlist is one of the bedrocks of explaining the principles of the science and developments of firearms. These videos were part of a lecture series by the legendary Arthur Alphin, Colonel, US Army (Retired), and cannot be more strongly recommended.

15. General Weapons Effects

16. The Defense of Jisr al Doreaa -- An updated version of a British book written for new officers during the Second Boer War (1899-1902), this playlist utlizes video game technology to animate the learning curve of a young American officer dealing with modern "low-intensity conflict" in Iraq, set mostly during the 2005-2007 period. Occasionally painful to watch, but necessary.

Soem of the videos Your Highness share with us, I watched previously, and I must say the 16th was the one that I like the most. Some I'll watch in the following days. I strongly advise Your Highness to share the link of this topic in M.A.G.N.A. to call the attention of our compatriots to the military activity, but also to knowledge that would be good for anyone interested in military and self-defense; the last, a must-know and must-practice activity of our (post)modern society.

17. General Military Subjects

18. Firepower -- Arguably, this should be the first video watched. While somewhat dated, it is a very good, basic overview of the most common types of weapons and vehicles in use today...

Never throw anything away, and never turn your nose up at something that still works. These weapons are long outdated, and there are plenty of better weapons out there, but you have to learn to work with what you have.....
