You read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children can be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now his tyrants trample each God given right we only watch in tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Dill the land of the free and good Afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, this is the first hour of the afternoon intelligence report of our kirky. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories west, east, south, and southeast. Well, ladies and gentlemen, you were listening to us on... LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com. We're on AM and FM micro stations, CB base stations, and UltraNet technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska. We're in the Hallmark Network. From the top of the bottom of Florida from the bottom of Florida across the arc of the Gulf of Mexico headed Louisiana, Texas Oklahoma big chunk of Nebraska a whole bunch of Wyoming to include both the third the fifth of pit and our friends in Colorado waving to the left coast we turn back to the east sweep across the plains leap over the burgeoning banks of the Mississippi and Land in the smoky slash the Blue Ridge where the restaurant Chris grandma teams, okay teams and the mob ill grandma consortium of retired telecommunications workers Bring us the golden spike many hands make for light work a million pedico junctions the ability to continue to function when everything else is offline And as we know, it is a, well, it's been a medium day. It's looking like it wanted to rain all day. The rain went to the south of us. I think we might have down there. Do we have down? Yes, we might have one of those days here too. There we go. Same thing. It's like you might as well not worry about whether or not it's going to rain. Just do what you're going to do and see what happens. That's how it was all day, guys. Wait a second. Don, do you have an echo? Oh, yeah. I'll see what I can do. Well, it's I don't know I heard the very much twice, but let's see can you hear me down at any rate? It is the third day of our no year of our board 2013 and it looks like somebody was kind of mad in Washington there and the echo is back, but apparently they didn't apologize for that I'm not going to be able to nail this out. I was having problems with Henry's program and I changed some stuff around so it's going to take me a while. Okay. So go ahead and keep talking and again, what's happened to your neck of the woods, please? Again, somebody didn't like that some gate was closed somewhere in Washington and drove into the gate and made a whole lot of noise. It's one of the big hunks of news on the local evening news and it's not local, it's there out of Washington. Apparently somebody should have opened the gate. The government should have been open there. What else is going on? Speaking of government, while we're on that subject, you guys, you know, Mark, you've talked about being checked out for particular jobs, you know. If you want to, well, you can, seems like most anybody from around the world could be president these days. Born in, I don't know, how does that King Tut go, but we don't have to sing that song. The other thing is about clearances. If you're going to get this job, generally a lot of times you need clearances. You know that Snowden fellow? And there's another guy out there. Oh, the guy who did the, what's his name? The guy who did the shooting at the Naval Station there in Washington. They were both, oh, not vetted, but they were both, had their background checks done by the same security people, Mark. the Snowden fellow who is you know big on the WikiLeaks thing and also the guy who did the shooting there in the Naval in the Naval Yard. Oh well. They were both cleared by the same security company. Well that's probably the case since a lot of the stuff has been contracted out in the past it used to be FBI. In fact it was a hundred percent FBI back in the day with some other agencies if they were backlogged pitching in to include field clearances and things of that nature. And it's fascinating that when you take a look at what's been going on here over the last 10 years, needless to say, these private contract groups made up of people typically, what they'll do is they'll find one or two people who know people in the system who have retired. They fabricate a company, the operation's out of Heifer, Tel Aviv, they're never American companies anymore, it's all shysters overseas. This is how they get their spies into the system in the first place. It's not the Snowden's you have to worry about. It's the new versions of the Jewish mob that stole our nuclear secrets or stole fuel rods out of the back of the facilities down in Oak Ridge, etc., etc. Well, actually, they didn't steal them out of the back. They drove them right through the front gate because nuclear fuel rods don't get carried out in a lunch box. Everybody does understand that, right? So what happens is once you get one of these shysters into a situation, then what they do is they can help their fellow travelers, as we've described many times on the air, and down we've walked everybody through this. So what's happened is the same group, to a degree, they really can't be attacked for these characters because, again, They were chosen because typically they have little or no background or record, which is harder than hell to find nowadays no matter what because of the racket the government set up. Let's not forget, you know, the Ritalin has held against you after government was paid, you know, paid everybody to put everybody on Ritalin and everybody on Prozac. You then turn around and demand that everybody be, you know, absolutely baby wipe clean. And that's not even possible hardly anymore. So when you do find somebody, as long as there's nothing jumping off the wall, like, you know, the BS they brought up about the shooter, he had an incident where a gun disher- Ah, shut up! That, in and of itself, to me, is irrelevant and was a crock of BS, and they know it. You know what? Cops do this all the time. All the hell, cops do this all the time around their cop cars, have little oopsies, only you get to see someone where they're so slipshod that they shoot themselves. Then it's funny, ha ha ha, but most of them you never see because nobody gives, nobody lets anybody see that video and it doesn't get out because they don't want anybody to think about that. That gets back to the whole idea that depending on what tool it is you're using, people have boo-boos. Oh well. get over it. You know, by comparison to the number of boo-boos people have with cars, I mean, gee, let me do this. Okay? So the big thing is, the background checks themselves, the company itself, was there something else going on that they should have noticed? Or, the other consideration why it got in the control press, Don, was it in the media today? I'm wondering, through which channels do I have to go? I want to be an astronaut on the moon. If I tell them I've been there before, would it increase my chances of being able to go next time through that particular company? Because you know, apparently you don't check too hard. Yeah, I've been there before. Was it in the controlled media where they were talking about this? Oh no, this came to us from kind of back to... Oh, okay. Well, that had... Yeah, there are people looking at... Yeah, the control media, then if they're not bringing attention to it, then that means the company is, you know, a Yohudi. I'll guarantee and they're not going to bring any more up. But if the information is in the database, one of the things is that guys, a lot of this comes out in blogs and places or in old bulletin boards. Bulletin boards are probably the best example. Back in the day when they were flapping and yapping about us, there's a little comment we say from one of the bulletin boards where, and actually it was also from one of the US Army Intel relays where they said, you know, they were commenting on the one hand the official story is, you know, attack me no matter what about my background. But then there's this paragraph that says, oh my god, you know, he's from U6! He's one of us! Actually it says that, guys. And it's like, well, no, because most of you are still going along to get along and will pretty well do anything to screw the country. On the other hand, a lot of people, that's the problem is once you get in there and you think, you think or you expect one standard and then you find out the whole thing is BS. In other words, there's a whole big bunch of lies which, you know, to a degree you suspect is like, well, the way to find out is, you know, let's do the job and see what happens. Well, then you find out your country's being betrayed left, right, up and down by shysters who are foreigners and are coutowing to foreign powers rather than America. And yes, the people inside the system that are in all through the system that permeate it like a bunch of maggots, yes, they're foreigners, they're illegal, they're unlawful, they're traitors, because most of them actually have, well, technically dual citizenship status. Some of them don't even have that. I mean, come on, look at how many foreigners we have in Homeland Suck-urity. And they don't even have any business being there, but you see, it's a private foreign corporation whoring out to the internationalist to attack America. So it does make sense that that's where the prostitutes would be. Fusion centers are the same way. You're not going to expect you don't have any one of any competence there. They can't they've got to hire people who are low IQ or again, they're conniving rats because each fusion center is a private contracted war house and These prostitutes mostly can't speak English They are against the American people. They don't like the United States. We are all the threat to them Well, of course we are, because they are power freaks working for the internationalists. So anybody who thinks is an American, well, as was warned by our founding fathers and by all the people when we grew up that were teaching us about this threat, read and under, call it conspiracy. Nee n Dutton, read and under, call it treason. The Fabian freeway, we've talked about this many times. Guys, when you read that and you take a look at the agenda right now, Understand that in the years since those have been written, all the fellow travelers got their buddies in there. Their bathhouse boy queer buddies, their foreign asset buddies, etc., etc., but their foreign assets too. Once they can get a person up through the chain of command into a key hourglass position, they can sign off on everything. That's what I've been explaining this for years. You don't have to control it. Everyone goes, well you mean the whole system? No! Guys, there are key positions where it's a minority. I mean a minority of a minority of a minority of people that actually do the job. And if you try to do it right and you've got a bunch of shysters above you, oh they will screw you left and right. Oh, they'll expect you to do all the work. I'll recollect something that years ago, it was one of the things that helped me to understand our enemy. We saved some piece of trash individual who got his mammary gland and a ringer, okay? And after he was done, he got this twist. After he finally, we took everything, myself and two other guys. I had to do all the running around and make sure this thing was covered appropriately. And the logic was we're all on the same team. When I was all done with this, we're standing there and the other two guys are like feeling, hey, we did pretty good. We got this all squared away. It really wasn't a problem. And the character looks at me and he goes, I hate you. I hate you because you think too much and every the other two guys are like It's like oh we won't forget that one It's like every they didn't know what to say and it's like I had you I can't stand you for you. You know too much And he started off with this little rotten dripping diatribe and this character was not a kid or something This was an adult and older than me by the way, but his the venom And the attitude was that we had something on him, but also that we just were able to do something that he couldn't figure out. He really couldn't wrap his brain around. And when all was said and done, he left. And it's like the other guy said, what the hell was that? And I said, well, that's just something to remember. And you all know that we're not doing this again, right? And they're like, oh, yeah. And not for either of the ones he's running around with either, right? Yeah, well, pay attention to who they are. So we got to find out step by step more and more who these parasites and sheisters were that were in the system These are the Rex 84 boys These are the ones who would follow orders to murder Americans and hurt people and do whatever that's the whole problem guys There once you meet them and see them you'll never forget them and then when you look at them you always look at them I look at them with just as much more loathing because I understand full well What kind of what they think they're somehow deceiving all of us? And in reality, it's just as plain as a nose and your face. And once you deal with enough of them, you're going to be like, there's one, there's one. Wow, that's got all the demeanor. Yep, there's one too. In your community, there's a whole bunch of them doing the same thing. They all think that we're all stupid and we don't know who the fellow travelers are. And it's funnier than hell to watch. And for the same reason though, also again, don't make a whole lot of noise, just benchmark and tick that name off like all the others. Again, if they think they're going to do us, we understand what we're going to have to do when the time comes and we're attacked. So this whole thing, down step by step, and the sad part about it is that, again, it's not like it couldn't have been fixed, but once you crack the door open and the old camel's nose is routine, then the rest of the tent falls. And you're going to have camel species everywhere. Oops, that's exactly inside the tent and outside, guys. You have some inside usually in the fire, in the brazier. Yeah, exactly. That's where it's supposed to be. The other angle on this is, as you point out, many facets. Another sad portion is, you don't hear about the FBI investigating this, which leads to the conclusion that, I wonder who investigated all those people that are in the FBI that allowed them to get into the FBI. See how vicious the circle can get. Who brought who into what mechanism? How deep is the water? Well of course now everybody's talking about the incident here with the woman with baby rams a gate of whatever. I don't know if actually a... Gates near the White House. What's near the White House? Were the gates to the White House? Were the gates to something else? One of the parking areas? Blah blah blah blah blah. You know, of course the whole point is, this is a demonstration again, if the top secret naval facility gets overrun, people are shot left and right. But the special one, you know, Obama, etc., all just come in the ballpark and touch the gate. Oh, you missed it, Dad. They had another abandon in place. Oh yes, I know that. I figured automatically everybody goes into chicken little mode. Actually, what it was is that the new technique is so they can count where the corpses are going to be. Everybody is supposed to drop their drawers and press their ass cheeks to the glass windows after they've piled the furniture up. Now, they'll know where the shooter stopped when the ass cheeks are missing from certain windows. So that way it's easier to know which rooms are going to be, you know, casualty strewn. See how that works, guys? It's called the New Moon Project. I think that worked on. I don't think anybody would be too excited about it. What do you mean? Oh yeah, you're all just dropping your drawers, your ass is grass and the lawnmower is going through it kids. So we got these big picture windows and all the government buildings. Everybody just back up there and when we see where the ones are missing and there's blood streaks, we'll know that makes a lot easier to track down living from the dead, makes a lot easier for us to pull you out before so we can kind of keep the crime scene intact. You know, we figured there would be a lot of butt cheeks missing, but this is just a lot easier in general. You know, you're just kiss your arse goodbye. So the New Moon Project to identify government employees in the Abandoned Employees Program, it should be pretty straightforward and easy to understand. I think that'll work for us. Anyway, I'll tell you what, we are almost at the bottom of the hour and Donna don't want you to rush. Uh oh, do we still have Don there? Did we lose Don? Did we lose the... Oh no, Don had the last dog out. Oh, okay, no problem. I just want to make sure. Remember, we're having problems with the system here, a little bit bouncing here and there, so we needed to know. That's okay, Don. Anyway, we're headed towards the bottom of the hour, but we're not going to rush here. Night vision technology, you have it. People need to get hold of it. If people need it, why are you dealing with a stranger when you can deal with a friend? Don, jump in there, please. Well, the phone number right up front, if you want to talk to me about night vision, you guys after the top of the hour for a skinny little window in time there and then after about 7 o'clock to 8 o'clock and then after the 8 o'clock to 9 o'clock hour. If you call and you get the machine, I think the machine will tell you something like I'm always here except for when I'm not. If you hear that you're pretty certain you've got Don's machine. Leave a message, I'll get back with you. To get to the machine you need to dial or push in the number is 231-796-8458. And if you've got a telephone you have almost an antique these days. Again, my number is 2317968458. We can talk about that first generation gun sight right in your mailbox for the paltry some of $429. I mean money ain't worth what it used to be but you know You guys when first generation first came on scene It was a lot more than $429 so you know it's the Well, the technology, the price is coming down, the value of the money is going up and rather down. It should cost less, but if you want to talk to me about that device, you can reach me at, again, 231-796-8458. Or we can talk about a generation gun sight, 308 capable. Same features as the first generation gun sight. It'll unscrew onto your 7'8 or your 1 inch rail. As long as you've got one of those on your gun, we can put a piece of night vision on it. We could talk about thermal. Again, there's a piece right from the FLIR company that fits in your pocket. You have to hang around on the nose of your helicopter. I'll put it in your mailbox for under $2,000. That number, to contact me, is 2317968458. Again, 2316. And for everybody out there listening, real quick, Don, before we go to the bottom of the hour break, we should have got a few minutes. In single monoculars, if we were looking for what's the cheapest of the monoculars that are out there that are available? Oh, there's a little dinky thing handheld that's just under $200. And again, just under $200. It's not very big on the front. Again, it's a small- Hey, Don, I got a question. Okay, is that device comparable to the gnome? Oh about the same size. It's the same tube Okay, cool. I had somebody who was asking about those because they liked how small they were, right? So I will direct them to you. What was that model again? Oh, I you know, I think it's called the Viper. It's an ATM product the Viper It's you can hang that from a headgear their adapt abilities for it, but into dinky like 223 caliber. So it's kind of versatile, but it's again, it's a first generation device. The more glass you put in front of it, the less light is going to get the device. But that's the same basic truism for second and third generation also. We can go up from there to a second generation monocular or even a third generation monocular. But now you're talking, you know, longer dollars. That second generation monocular single tube is going to be maybe nine inches long. That'll go into your mailbox for just under a thousand dollars. But I, you know, you wonder, oh, that's a big step up from first to second generation in pricing. Well, the biggest step up in light amplification performance is from first to second generation. The biggest step up in lifetime of the tube is from second to third. So again, if you want to talk to me about night vision, you can reach me at 231-796-796. 8458. Now again, the reason I bring it up is for the same reason that Ed pointed out. We've got people that have been asking and it's like a small portable monocular for medical personnel like we've talked about or for pathfinders that are not combatants. We're looking at situations where you want to survey to your front. You pick an objective for short-range land navigation. You move to that objective. You halt. You survey the area again. You move to the next objective. This is how you move anyway at night, guys. You will observe a location. You will confirm you may send a picket left and right and then send a team leader, the point man, forward. Then the team moves to that objective. Well, if you have especially an evacuation team, or if you're looking for an escape and evasion scenario where you're bugging out of an area, you don't have to spend the moment. You have one of these aircraft flight capable goggle systems or whatever like you've seen. It's just something to ensure that you've got an idea of what's in your area of operation. Most everything you're going to face doesn't have any night vision at all. So, it's a step up just to have something in your hands. See how that works? We can again employ more. The objective, just like what we did when we went down for when the Minuteman II program was in place, the second event, when the second Minuteman deployment on the border. As we pointed out, I wrote to everybody, asked everybody to bring this forward. Any piece of night vision, no matter what it was, would be fine for that deployment. Infrared, first generation, second generation, turns out that some of the guys actually had FLIR and guys that's more than eight, nine years ago, that's almost a decade ago back when FLIR was even more expensive than it is now. In fact it's come down like you said, right Don? Yes. So you know it is available again where before With everybody having at least first gen monoculars or rifle sighting systems, second generation and third generation out there, what we did, what the guys did, is they redeployed the night vision so that the about every so many, like every quarter mile or half mile, a better second or third generation overlapped with the other first generation technologies. and they had roving third generation units that were mechanized. Then they had on top of that aerial flier and third generation because the guys that brought it in, they put the flier over on the end with the aircraft section. They surveyed into Mexico so far that anybody even trying to move towards the border couldn't move to do anything at night. There wasn't anybody surprised. There wasn't anybody going to be surprised. And so it literally shut the border down. Using the tactics that we used not based upon the regimen of the regime and their failure programs, We literally were able to stop the operations completely. The important thing is operational security, for instance, the air section never left its aircraft. That was one of the most important things. They thought ahead, OPSEC, making sure that all their technology was charged up, all of it was secure. They made sure that people slept with the aircraft and people were awake with the aircraft. In other words, if there was a problem, there would have been more manpower right there on the spot. Between the aircraft deployed a multiple level of generations of night vision and FLIR, they got the job done. The same would be true in an evacuation situation. You may be the one person out of 10 that has one of those monoculars. Prioritize activities if you are in a fighting situation, the best is going to the troops if at all possible, or is going down the road to the troops. That is just how it is going to be. And for that reason, the second generation, anybody with FLIR, anybody with third generation, weapon sites, priority would be towards again, combat operations or combat support. The first generation equipment in terms of the lower tech but still more than serviceable gives us the ability though to maneuver or move other groups of people. If we have so many pieces of equipment we don't lump them up into one unit, we make each of the people with the night vision device a team leader pathfinder. At the very least they're under the control of a team leader who may be moving 10, 20, 30, 50, maybe even up to 100 people at a time. And so that night vision device becomes the pathfinder eye. Now it doesn't mean there is another technology. I will point out that even just conventional high bore optics, conventional optics take in a lot of light even at night. So those would be employed anything binoculars it sounds strange, but it worked quite well It's not as it's not going to be the same effect, but more eyes Giving range you know ensures. You're not going to be caught in any kind of surprise Situation which we don't want to see Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance anyway done quit, please jump in there well again That's a good point to be made Really good glass, you guys. High quality gun sights and really good, again, binoculars, monoculars. Front lens is a lot bigger than the pupil of your eye. It can gather a lot more light. That's the point to be made there. And the difference, we've talked about this before, the difference between glass and plastic. Now plastic is really getting, you know, the average person, you know, or in daylight. Hardly any difference can be discerned between glass and plastic in full daylight. If you're looking to see the biggest differences demonstrated, look into the light as the sun sets or as the sun comes up. When you're getting to the point, if you have devices side by side, the side by side comparison I'm talking about, As it's getting darker or as it is coming out of the darkness toward dawn, you pick up the plastic and you look and you pick up the glass and you look. You're going to notice that the good glass is moving light through the device to your eye sooner than even the better plastic. If you've got some moon in the sky, in particular some people in your group can work real well with good glass. down to about even down as low as a quarter of a moon, depending on, and this goes over to regular night vision too, depending on the background, depending on how well the person is camouflaged and how disciplined they are in their motion. We have talked about these three, oh, basic parameters in the night vision world, the contrast. is going to allow you to make something out, be it the cow or the person, the deer or the bear, the backgrounds they are moving against, the amount of light right from the get-go, you know, first generation by the time the moon is gone, you're itching kind of to turn that illuminator on unless you've got good contrast, you know, a beach, water, Now water can sometimes be a real bane to even second and third generation because of what seems to be the featurelessness of it, you know, the hard to register range or the hard to look right over there, where, by that wave there, instead of, you know, by the rock, by the tree, by the house, down the road, up the street, you know, a quarter mile. Again, looking over water can be a different thing with night vision. Something that the more you work with it, the more familiar you become, the more you're able to, again, estimate range and discern what it is you're really looking at. If you're looking, hey, if you want to talk about night vision, you can reach me at 2317968458. Again, 2317968458. We can talk about goggles or gun sights, green screens or thermal. Again, now get a piece of thermal for under $2,000 right in your mailbox. Again, 231-796-8458. And one of the things, again, I can't stress enough is spare battery packs and making up a kit. You know, I've been running into it. I've been saving every one of these. I've been getting bags, black utility bags of all shapes and sizes. In fact, one of them turns out it was exactly what Ed needs for his new phone and for the other equipment he's carrying right now. And what's cute is it was a freebie. In fact, it's cutting edge. I didn't know it. Somebody else just simply tossed it out with a whole bunch of stuff, one of the yard sales. And the bags that are showing up, for instance, utility shoulder bags that you can use for supporting the night vision technology. A lot of these CD bags that are coming out, they were designed for CD carriers. They have two separate pockets, usually a separate utility pocket for the charger. Guys, if you think about it, like that little gnome unit, or actually, what's the name of the new one? I'm sorry, it's not the gnome. Oh, it's a Viper. The Viper. Well, something in that size range, if it's about the size of the gnome, even if it's a little bigger, these pouches are perfect. I've got probably 25 or 30 of them now I've saved up. I take one big duffel bag pouch I got for free, nice black one, again. All of them are, you know, typically black or, you know, earth brown or green. 90% of them are black. I'm using them for props and we do the, you know, several of the other videos we're working on for some of the drama stuff. But the fact of the matter is that you can set up a nice pouch, throw your spare batteries in there, throw all of your charging equipment in there if you want to get a little crank charger, etc. Right now there's a lot of places where you can pick those up even at tractor supply and at Harbor Freight. They're all China Sport anyway. And the ones that are there are fairly cheap and don't just go crazy with them, but you can recharge, for instance, the rechargeable batteries while somebody else is using the night vision device. Somebody can be working on one while you're working on the other. A little solar panel charger tied in with that. You got a nice little kit so that during the day you can take advantage of free electricity. If at night you have to be working to get those batteries back up to life because something failed or you screwed up, well, you've got the ability to switch out to another system. The big thing is to have spares. If you can't do the charging system, at least a pile of, you know, alkali batteries, brand new ones, you know, spend the money, get the better ones, spend the money, make sure you're, or at the very least if you go to the dollar store, buy a pile of them, and that way you can run them to the ground. The big thing is don't even in the field throw away the ones you've used up, because they're not completely used up. Better something that will run for five minutes than the night vision device not running at all. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down. It's powering down Well, again, you've got so many minutes use out of maybe what's left of the juice and the batteries. But, come up with a system and make it a standard for your unit so everybody knows what's going on. The other thing is take advantage of Don's videos on night vision technology. I've had several comments from people separately and in letters and I want to say thank you, appreciate that, and we need to pass it on to Don on the air. A lot of people appreciate that because it saved them a lot of time And it's like we said, it keeps hours off your machine. If you've got the video to watch, you're not experimenting and going, oh man, I guess I shouldn't have pointed it at that fire for 15 minutes. Mmm, that's not a good thing. Mmm, maybe looking at ultra bright objects with my night vision device is not a happy camper situation. The meter just ticks right down with regard to, you know, lifespan and use. So we've got to think these things through. But, you know, again, do this now. I am serious. I don't care if you've got to go just to the dollar store. Actually, go to resale shops. There's so much stuff sitting at the resale shops in that category. If they had a dumpster out back, go check it. You wouldn't believe how many bags they throw out like that. I don't know why. I mean, they're present technology stuff, but any number of different sizes. Little ladies, you know, assault purses, they actually don't look like purses. They look like utility combat bags. And it's like, cool, there you go, right there. We have a lot of those set up for cameras or whatever. Now, here's another thing. A lot of you have older cameras out there that are 35 millimeter that are like really expensive Olympus, etc. You know what I mean? Don, a lot of those have some really big bore optics on them. Guys, if you could carry that and use that even at night, because of the quality of the lens, typically it will be glass, That's why 35mm, the film is obsolete, this and any other. Everybody always yap, that's not what I'm using it for. I'm using it as an optical device to take in image, a more light collection. I can look through the viewfinder and see what's out there. The other cool thing is if you've got some of these parallel overlapping generation technologies, on top of everything else you have Oh, that's right. You've got some that are even digital with the same kind of, and the newest ones are truly like this, with the same kind of optics, guys. So you literally have a monitoring screen, and you can even zoom in an ID and area and see if you can make out what's there. It's better than just trying to guess. Also for daylight observation, look at it as a spotting scope. That camera, that old camera, in fact, depending on what kind of telephoto lens you may have stuck on the end of that, and a lot of people do, you've got yourself one hell of a nice spotting scope sitting there. It's just something to think about. And yes, you can. You typically have Zoom with a lot of them. A lot of your cameras. Here's another one. Your VHS cameras. Sounds weird. A lot of them had the IR protection, or I should say the IR screening and filter systems taken off. And while they're not night vision, they're almost the next best thing. They actually are almost like IR in that if you throw an illuminator behind that with an infrared LED, You literally can light up the area and see through the camera what's going on. Now is it the first best choice of things to do? Well, if you have nothing and again you're using it for path finding the situation where you're pointing yourself outbound and you're really more worried about the brigands and the thieves and the knuckle draggers, it would work. But it's again, you have to be thinking in advance. Do you have all this stuff squared away? Do you have the technology so you can use it? Have you experimented with it at night? Do you know what it can do and can't do? Can you integrate it with the other equipment that you have? Now in most cases, you may not want it for motion. You may want it just for fixed location defense. If everybody has some optic, everybody can see better. Don's got a third generation piece or maybe just a first generation rifle piece on his weapon. Two or three other people have monoscopes. One person might even have an older set of real night vision goggles. and the rest of everybody else is like, well, what do we do? Well, again, if you have the other technology to improvise with, if you have scopes and the rifles even, those obviously are going to bring in the image. You're going to bring in and collect light to a degree. If it's a hunter's moon, you can see quite well at night. Now, you're still going to have dark spots and holes, and that's just the way things work. Plus, again, you're going to find out about that blind spot you've got in your eye that you could automatically overlook with the way you operate your vision day or night. And it becomes really obvious at night with night vision operations guys. It's something you learn real quick It's why when you're looking at something you Z pattern you don't try to look straight at it you actually look to in an oblique Everybody goes oh, I can see it better Well, that's because of a little part of the optic nerve there that you didn't realize or don't know about where it actually has to collect everything and go through the optic nerve. The eye has a little blind spot there. We're more prone to us looking at color than black and white. Our black and white tunes us for motion more than shape at night. That's where we can fine tune as you point out, Mark. The motion will catch our eye. If we don't look directly at it, we can even catch the shape. This is how someone gets away with that phrase, he disappeared into the darkness. When you're looking right at him, he just ran away into the dark. But I was looking right at him. But you turn your vision ever so slightly to the north or south, east or west of what you're trying to look at. of the way the light moves into our eyes and it moves into the rods and cones. What we want to do is ever so slightly move that obliquely and now we're looking at it with more of our black and white vision because at 12 feet underwater in the brightest daylight, at 12 feet underwater, you can't see red anymore for the lack of ambient light. The red won't show up anymore. So this is our Our eyes are tuned to work in color and it really helps. The black and white that we see more works with motion. I've got somebody knocking at the door, Mark. I'll be right back. Well, that one that you thought was the guy turns out to be the cedar bush and that other thing that you were ignoring turns out to be the guy you were looking for. Hey, maybe you should scan more and learn again to de- you know, de-fix it. Doesn't mean you aren't going to put what you do as you pass over. Now, there's a reason for this. You were taught this when you were driving. Have you ever thought about this? When you are driving, you're told to spot check the mirror. You don't stare at the mirror. You glance at the mirror and your mind registers the image. The same is true with night operations. You scan and if you actually register something, you don't go back and stare at it. What you do is you pass from right to left or left to right. Let's see, we're going from left to right. And then what you do is you scan back over it again and don't lock your brain on it. You know again, survey. Amazingly enough, your brain, your subconscious especially, does extrapolate the database available, looks at the, you know, again, registered number of identifiable things that match that object that you just saw, and you go, hmm, that is a helmet. Or, it looks like a helmet. And in fact, there's some other right angles that aren't natural there. Let's do that again. Let's also not be too obvious so that they don't know that you really are looking at them. Don't stare back. A couple of my friends, one of them of course in the Korean War, this actually happened, night operations, actually it's what took him out of the Korean War for a little bit. Night operations, two units going at each other, Koreans coming from one direction, at night, the North Koreans. They were on an aggressive patrol, this is towards when the peace talks were taking place. They were on aggressive patrol, cold, middle of winter, at night. He was a point man carrying an M1, actually an M2 carbine. The other guy obviously was carrying a peppish, probably a peppish 41 or 43, who knows. Anyway, he observed and looked straight at something and he couldn't identify what it was. So he said, he goes, I acknowledge, I knew what I should have done. He goes, I should have panned back and forth and I did. And then I started staring at that object again. He goes, and I couldn't make it out. And I knew it was because, number one, I was cold, I was fatigued. The cold was, the Korean peninsula cold just sucks, the heat and the sense out of your people. And so he moved forward again and he panned and he panned left and he panned right. He said and then he stepped forward a little farther and he realized, oh that is a helmet. Well about that time, the guy that he was looking at, the point man for the Korean force, realized that, and it looked like he was doing the same thing, he couldn't figure out what he was looking at in the snow. It was dark. Nobody's running around with flashlights. And he stared at him and the other guy stared back. And finally they both jumped up, shouted, and the guy cut loose with a whole drum from a peppy-ish. He cut loose with a 30 round stick mag and an M1 car. Forgive me, an M2 car being in full auto. He said, we just hosed each other down. Now this was at about 15 yards. And both of them just cut each other up. He doesn't know how many times he was hit with that pepe-ish and he doesn't know how many times for sure but his policy was to aim at about the foot and just pull the trigger and let a mag go and typically most of those rounds will hit or stitch the target. Both of them fell back, he figures at the same time. They flopped over backwards. Well, as soon as they cut loose, everybody on both sides started shooting and it was like two wedges, two platoon strength wedges going at each other. They were at the spear tip on both ends. All he remembers laying about his back is watching all these pretty tracers going back and forth. Green tracers, red tracers, even some yellow tracers. He said, wow, that was kind of neat. There were colors. And he goes, he knew he was shot. He just didn't know how he was shot, how bad. Couldn't feel much of anything, had the wind completely knocked out of him. And so the one thing I remember is one or two men, and it turned out it was two guys, grabbed him by the web gear and started dragging him like a sled. And all they did was just pump legs until they got over the next ridge. Meanwhile, the firefight going on both sides backed off and ran. Now he swears. He goes, again, to this day, the only I get that close, I still couldn't be sure. I couldn't tell you what he looked like. I couldn't tell you the only thing I was sure of. Eventually, we both jumped up and screamed at each other that really there was somebody there. And it's obvious the other guy was just as panicked as he was. So again, before you get into a situation like that, again, slow down. And I know that people get fatigued. This is another problem with point men. A lot of people like to be point... there are people who like being point men. And will stay up front as point men. The thing is that you can get fatigued. And you also have to... you should be rotated out and given another job for obvious reasons. And you absolutely need to pay attention to the guys behind you, because you might have a lot of energy to be point men. But if you get out of sight of your unit, you're... AOSOL. Well, everybody was wearing their winter overcoats, their winter insulator, insulating underlayer made of a combination of wool and whatever the k-pok was they were using at the time. In addition to that, he had his regular field jacket on, the field jacket liner under that, a set of woolens, a set of long johns, hit a wool shirt under the field jacket. And between that and the fact that, oh yes, he was wearing his flak vest. When he finally, you know, the medic started going over him, his core area had pretty much the peppy-ish sub guns between the vest and bullets in the between the vest and the rest of the clothing he just had bruise marks where he got hit and hurt is the fact that there's no body armor on your armor on your arms and on your legs and even had a couple of creases on his forehead which kind of what knocked him silly he goes look at all the pretty lights he goes it was really fun watching laying on your back with that sub-zero cold weather tracers are really impressive if you haven't seen them at night in sub-zero weather it's an experience guys looks like looks like photon torpedoes from star trek what they look like. Seriously, in sub-zero really cold weather, it's interesting, very different burn. Anyway, that's what took him out of the war by the time he got back out of medical from the multiple peppy-ish 7.62x25 stipple holes that he had all over him. In the peripheral areas, basically the armistice was signed and he cycled back out after the closing of hostilities, of technical hostilities. The DMZ was still hot and everything was still pretty heavy and people were getting killed left and right every month anyway. So case in point again, remember slow down and pan. If you do suspect an object, here's another rule. Use either an X pattern to look over and beyond the target or use a Z pattern beyond to the left, cut across to the right, come from the upper right to the lower left across the objective, then sweep along the base. Now what happens there is that your eyes literally collect an image and it's almost like NASA matte photography in that you have several different images. You're going to blink somewhere during that time, no matter how hard you try. And it's interesting that pretty much everybody's described it the same way. Between the collective images you actually format, you construct a final image that you register. Now how you respond, not react, how you respond to that image is a matter of SOP. And that's the other half of what you need to remember. First of all, slow down, stay focused. And then follow through on breathe and squeeze or let the team leader know what you're seeing and whether or not you even want to respond to it or if you're going to wait until you are able to envelop the objective or the target or whatever you see or suspect, etc., etc. Or whether or not you're going to break contact. You may not even make contact and that you may not fire at all. Let them believe you didn't see them. Don't focus too long. This is the other reason for not directly observing, not staring at an objective. If you create the appearance that you didn't see, you might be able to back out and not only break contact, but completely move or DD the AO, get out of the area of operation without losing any personnel or expending munitions and again treating the enemy to an action on their terms. Which is the other half of the issue. Don, we got you there again? Yes, I just got there. Excuse me. Go right ahead and jump in there where you left off, please. Well, I think we were talking about... In motion? Oh, motion? You were talking about motion, night vision, motion? Okay. That's a good demonstration in the night vision video. In fact, you'll see different camouflages in the night vision video and sometimes it's as close as 10 or 12, 14 feet away. And if it's not moving, it almost seems to disappear even in front of a third generation tube, you guys. The night vision video, there's a whole bunch of good things in it. I don't mean to pat myself on the back, but it took most of a year to build for one of the reasons was you'll see some of the same locations in the summer and the winter and throughout various moon cycles in both the summer and the winter. As example, the winter with snow on the ground and no moon and the winter with snow on the ground and a full moon, there's quite a difference there. Even a full moon and no moon in the summertime or a moon on the horizon or just a sliver of a moon. Many different examples of light levels in the same location. So it's not like you're looking at a whole bunch of different places and a whole bunch of different light levels. We did the best we could to kind of get you familiar with one area and then show you different, again, throughout the seasons and throughout the moon cycles, that area. You'll see some other things like some water we mentioned earlier. A one place that was example because the telephone poles are 100 yards apart by laser. You can just count the telephone poles away in the distance. There's more than six or eight of them. Again, third generation and some moon and some snow. Again, there are a whole bunch of different scenarios and examples of what night vision will and won't do for you in the night vision video. I think, oh, let's be real generous. It's getting close to, we need to get this done kind of for some reason or another, but $30 will put the night vision video in your mailbox. That's a couple of, it's a couple of discs. It is, again, you'll even see examples of driving with the night vision video, both looking forward with zero power, You know, no magnification. And looking off to the side with a three or rather four power magnification. As if you were riding on an armored personnel carrier or something and just looking out into the across the field or into the little neighborhood with your piece of night vision. If you want it secure for your very own one of the night vision videos, $30 in, oh, you know, FRNs wrapped in postal money orders. Send that to Nancy Cornke at post office box 194 in Dexter, Michigan where the PZ, the zip code is 48130. If I got that correct, I don't need a correction, I'll repeat it again. That would go to Nancy Cornke at K-O-E-R-N-K-E. Nancy Cornke at Post Office Box 194 in Dexter, Michigan, where the PZ is 48130. And you guys, again, it wasn't just made in one weekend, the night vision video. We're going to make a night vision video. Let's get everybody together and do this. That isn't what happened. I'd rather like to think that it's well thought out. It shows you a number of different scenarios, a number of different landscapes, features and oh there's even lightning in the background in the night vision video. So there aren't a whole lot of people willing to stand out in the field with a tripod and lightning metal objects in their hands. So again, you know, an act of God that everybody made it through, Mark. If you want to secure that video for yourself, $30 to Nancy Cornke at post office box 194, Dexter, Michigan, where the Zip code is 48130. If you want to talk to me about night vision, my telephone number is 231-796-8458. Again, 231-96-8458. Thank you. One of the other things here to remember is, in fact, there's a subject that is being brought up by Max Velocity about some of the, an ongoing debate back and forth, or actually discussion, with people making comments and him bringing forward and trying to explain the ideas he's presenting. It is sad that we have to explain to people about a military team and how it works, but that's what he's having to do because there's people that are making either stupid comments or they can't wrap their brain around what actually has to happen in order for even the settlers who are independent to survive. or intentional people trying to put up disinformation to get people killed. Well, yeah, the thing is here, one of the most common things that I see is everybody forgets that, and we talked about this the other day, with block houses, everybody forgets that yes, everybody owned their own property. Absolutely. Everybody that moved into an area and settled it and cleared the land and worked it as hard as they could owned whatever they produced. But they also understood that mutual defense was critical and teamwork was critical to survival guys and One of the things when you hear the term redistribution in a military format We're talking about within a team if everybody agrees to work in a heartbeat I'm gonna buy well, of course we intentionally plan this way there's other people that are doing the III me me me stuff and always and it will and of course in that respect It's why I would be selective in how I build my teams up and who I would give specific jobs to. Or whether or not even let the others participate. I don't know if they would be reliable in the long run because the I, I, I, me, me, me thing usually ends up being the, well, you're all expendable, I'm not, goodbye. And we've watched that happen. The guys with the coolest, bestest, latest stuff are the ones that never show up when things got hot. Seriously, I'm going to tell you that right now. In fact, those people always did the, well you don't want this guy to be part of this or you don't want that guy to be part of it. And all the people that this character would always or these types of characters would always try to backstab are the people that would show up. So just something to think about there. Just because they've got the coolest latest toys, but it's mine. Well, here's the thing. You're only able to stay up for so many hours a day. If you do understand military operations, it's like the squad gun. Or even if you have limited night vision. Maybe you do want to be second shift. If you want to be second shift and third shift, and that's where you're going to live, well, you can run the night vision most of the time. But you still got to walk away and take a pee. You still got to eat sometime. So, typically, special technologies, special tools, squad weapons, radio equipment, you share out. In other words, you hand it to the other person, he is fully cognizant of how it works. He man's the piece of equipment. That's how it works. Redistributing for a unit is so that, as we talked about earlier through this whole process of, well, how would I make night vision work for me? Well, I'm probably going to take the person that owns it and send him with, you know, two, whatever group or unit it is within the team, like if it's two fire teams. I may have to say, hey, Ralph, I know you're with this fire team, but you're the only other guy that's got that kind of technology. I need you one person over there, and that's you.
