Take a cigarette lighter, paint it in camoflauge, call it tactical, and every militaria geek and 2nd Lieutenant will be in a rush to grab them. Anyway, the Army uses the acronym TTP, or tactics, techniques and procedures to describe what we (and the enemy) do in combat operations. This illustrates a "top-down" approach to everything, something Sergeants Major and Privates alike bitch about, since the training of a soldier uses the model of a baby: crawl, walk, run. As it is, I will go from the ground up, using the rifle as a model. Procedures consist of familiarization with the weapon, safety, loading, firing, unloading, clearing, marksmanship fundamentals, etc. Techniques involve learning to shoot from different positions: prone, kneeling, standing, as well as shooting while walking, jogging, or from a moving vehicle, or at moving targets, weak hand/eye shooting, etc. Tactics involve the "why" and "when" that complement the "how". In a nutshell, choosing the right tools for the problem at hand. This is why you don't see soldiers clear a room by low crawling; they walk/run in what's known as "careful hurry". It's why the Special Forces have the SOPMOD M4 carbine that enables them to attach different fire control accessories on the fly. The same crawl walk run/TTP approach applies to training for hand to hand problems. --__--__-- Message: 3 Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2006 11:36:45 -0500 (EST) Subject: RE: [Eskrima] Modern Arnis in Russia, 2nd seminar From: "Andrew Maddox" To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net > Guro Blade says thanks for the humorous e-mail.

List > members seem to use the words STRATEGY & TACTICS > differently, but to me they have always been > synonymous. There have been some really good explinations and definitions thus far. But one thing I would like to add is that there is very much a conceptual element in strategy and more of a nuts-and-bolts, on the ground, element to tactics. It's making the transition from planning into doing. I often tell people that the difference is strategy is the concept of how to secure a fire zone and maneuver. Tactics are how you get across a particular patch of land. As such, tactics are situation specific, whereas strategy is the guidelines you use to develop those tactics. Strategy is also what allows you to change course when you encounter resistance or problems with implimenting your tactics. You return to strategy to reorganize your tactics. > "There's nothing more dangerous than a blunt knife" In my experience, yeah there is 1) a dead shark 2) an unloaded gun Because they often aren't.

This has been explained to me in this manner; Strategy-is placing your forces or yourself in the best environment to succeed. this is accomplished by using terrain, natural obstructions and so forth. This is using large forces or, for yourself, putting you in the best position for attack or retreat.Tactics is using your forces or yourself in a strategic environment using on a smaller scale, smaller forces. Example; your right flank in a holding maneuver while your center and left flank give ground. For you; fake a kick to the groin while putting a stick up side his/her head then going up the ladder to get away.
