A Fin al Th ou gh t ..........14 I don?t know that war will come to any of my subscribers,
and I still think that all of us or nearly all of us will avoid
it, but it?s time for me to put this in your hands. The
overlords of the West are pushing toward war and don?t
seem to feel any concern about it. They are convinced
that their partners in manipulation (TV networks, social
media, intelligence agencies) will see them past any
backlash, even in the face of massive death and
destruction.
The overlords of the East are no saints either, of course,
but they?re not driving this nearly as hard. Hopefully all
parties decide that war is not actually in their interest,
and this exercise will prove to be unnecessary.
And yet, here we are.
The information in this issue came to me from my friend
Ric Cattell. These are, essentially, his notes. Ric was a
long-time operator with a much-awarded career in the

Whatever self-protection skills you have, please practice them. You don?t have to
reach the level of a professional competitor, but you will need muscle memory to
execute your skills. Because when stress comes, implementation becomes much
harder; you?ll lose fine muscle control, among other things. And so you should expect
it. You?ll work through it over time, but don?t be dejected by your initial
under-performance.
An American martial artist named Peyton Quinn made a career of teaching people to
deal with adrenal stress reactions. And unfortunately, you need experince to learn
that. That kind of toughening-up isn?t good for us, but in a war zone there?s no real
option.
So, expect personal difficulty over your first several days in a war zone. The graph
below shows how new soldiers did on actual battlefields.

And may God help any of us who find ourselves in such times and places.
