Yesterday, I attended a panel at the Atlantic Council on the new novel, “Ghost Fleet” by PW Singer and August Cole which supposes a future conflict. This recruiting poster was created as part of the complimentary Art of World War III project also hosted by the Atlantic Council.

All of the art can be seen at motherboard.vice.com/read/the-art-of-world-war-iii but this one reamins my favorite for a variety of reasons.
Passion Forward is a new campaign by 5.11 Tactical centered around and targeted towards women in shooting sports, hunting, public safety, and overall tactical preparedness. The National Sporting Goods Association reports that over 5 million women actively participate in target shooting in the USA, a 51% increase between 2001 and 2011, and countries the world over have seen a spike in women’s participation in hunting upwards of 60%, increases which make campaigns that focus on women in the shooting sports all the more valuable. Through Passion Forward, 5.11 will be offering fans and follower access to training videos, exclusive ambassador tips, covert solutions, product recommendations, contests, giveaways, and more.

Columbia, SC, June 24, 2015 –
Panteao is happy to announce the upcoming instructional videos with Pat McNamara. Pat McNamara (Mac) has 22 years of Special Operations experience, 13 of which were in 1st SFOD-D. He has extensive experience in hostile fire/combat zones in the Middle East, and Eastern Europe. He trains individuals at basic and advanced levels of marksmanship and combat tactics.
When he worked in the premier special missions unit, he became an impeccable marksman, shooting with accurate, lethal results and tactical effectiveness. McNamara has trained tactical applications of shooting to people of all levels of marksmanship, from varsity level soldiers, and police officers who work the streets to civilians with little to no time behind the trigger.
His military experience quickly taught him that there is more to tactical marksmanship than merely squeezing the trigger. Utilizing his years of experience, McNamara developed a training methodology that is safe, effective and combat relevant and encourages a continuous thought process. This methodology teaches how to maintain safety at all times and choose targets that force accountability, as well as provides courses covering several categories, including individual, collective, on line and standards.
The Make Ready with Pat McNamara videos will be filmed in 4K resolution and available on the Panteao website in Ultra HD, HD, and on DVD. The videos will also be available in the upcoming Panteao Make Ready Roku Channel.

SilencerCo has posted a video of a recent suppressed rifle hunt in Alaska for brown and black bears.
It you haven’t seen Jurassic World yet, I suggest do. It’s a fun movie. You may just spot a few cool bits of kit.
InGen’s Asset Containment Unit of the recently released Jurassic World can be spotted wearing Kryptek pattern Vertx clothing. And through the pattern in the photos may look like Kryptek Typhon, it’s not!
As it turns out, Kryptek Typhon was too dark for the needs of the production crew, which is why a team of agers and dyers took Kryptek Mandrake pattern clothing instead and over-dyed it to look very close to Typhon. These teams also handle the tracking and replication of wear, tear, and battle damage to clothing.
Thanks to ‘MK’ for the tip!
