To sum up- 0900.

I assume we report to the classroom rather than the range.
Anyone heard different?

See everybody in the morning. Have not heard anything about where to report; if you show up and there's nobody at the range, you should probably inquire inside.

If you get the chance let your classmates know about this site! Looking forward to your AARs

I am in no way as eloqunent at the AAR as Rhino, but this was a great class. I learned a lot and plan to survive my next gunfight thanks to Doc Gunn. Thanks so much. I had a great day at the Boone County facility with all of you guys. I was the "baby" of the training pack, but didn't feel like I didn't belong there, ever. Thanks guys. It was a gas. jack

Life-SAVING skills are just as important (if not more so) to have in the tactical toolbox as life-TAKING ones, and I'm VERY glad to have been through this course. Like Doc said, what difference does it make if you win the fight, if you're going to bleed out and die afterward? I also like the fact that what we learned today is also applicable in other, non-defensive situations (motor vehicle accident, accidental shooting at the range, etc). He is also right that the "shield" aspect of the "sword and shield" combo is really undervalued - the class size was capped at 16, but we only had 12 students. This kind of course may not be "sexy" like running and gunning with a carbine, but if you carry a gun or spend any time around them, it's knowledge you really ought to have.

I'll have a detailed AAR and a few pics up on my website this week, and will post a link here.

Excellent class.
I can't add anything to Rhino's fine review, so won't bother.
OK, a little.
I knew next to nothing about this sort of thing before. I may not have become a trauma surgeon in eight hours, but I'm way ahead of where I was. If nothing else, I learned the importance of doing SOMETHING, even if it is just applying direct pressure. That alone may make all the difference, and was worth taking the class.

I now have IBDs scattered all over- in each car, upstairs, downstairs, my range gear...

Oh, yeah-
I'm sorry I patched-up and saved Trunk Monkey.
