Wow! That’s awesome.
I heard(RUMINT so please don’t quote me on it) he may have been a subject matter expert for the Marine Corps Combat Hunter Project a decade or so ago?
I know a few guys down our way who are SMEs and I “audited” a tracker course(not course qualified, just lucky enough to get along to it).
But I only learned some green role tracking fundamentals, the urban side looks really interesting, I only ever received a “soldier’s 5” overview.
It’s a really really cool skill set....that reminds me of pistol training with quick skill fade if not practiced regularly.
Quite mentally taxing and certainly requires a few days to “tune in” to the environment.
