The Minuteman Observation Post Series (Pt 1 of 3). Overview/Purpose
There is a lot more to putting together an Observation Post then just making a well hidden spot from which to observe from. In this 3 part series we explore together the classic WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, and WHY Observation Posts should be done. It is part art and part science and is a fieldcraft skillset that MUST BE PRACTICED IN THE FIELD UNDER ALL TYPES OF CONDITIONS.
This series on the Minuteman Observation Post is a compilation of me practicing the skills as they are laid out in CM-2 Reconnaissance manual from The Professional Citizen Project.
Part 1 is an Overview and Purpose discussion
Part 2 will be a dive into OP site selection and build
Part 3 will be a full gear overview

With winter coming it's important to understand the layering system and how it works to keep you dry, warm, and comfortable. The classic Puffy Jacket plays a big role in that system but when wearing your Minuteman Kit it can pose some challenges, so here is a short video on how to wear it over your kit...

Pistol Red Dots are getting better and better especially in the wallet friendly market. The Tacticon Armament Predator V4 is right up there with many of the industry standard bearers. I really appreciated the lower profile mount which still allows me to see the factory iron sights and the window is easy to see through as well as the reticles being easy to pick up.

Bear Creek Arsenal .22lr style MK12 SPR build teaser, Short #3

I love the idea of having a dedicated .22lr upper to be able to add to any AR lower. When I got this BCA 16" upper in .22lr I knew right away I wanted to put together an MK12 SPR styled setup for using out at camp. It is a hoot to shoot (no pun intended) and accurate as it is needed to be. @Bear_Creek_Arsenal Check out Bear Creek Arsenal's full selection of .22lr AR uppers here: alnk.to/2QxiWFS...

What is Jay's woods bumming loadout? Do you know what woods bumming is? Why do you need a "loadout" for it? To me its just a .22 rifle, the 10 essentials, the means to make coffee, and just wandering off into the woods. No mission, no Chinese paratroopers, and no rules. Just a guy being happy in the woods!

Tiger Stripes, Bear Creek Arsenal, and Property Patrolling! Let's talk about this loadout!
Thanks for video!
One thing I use and really like are Lady Alarms. With a trip wire they can mimic a grenade for training, you can put them up for a security alarm near camp or on your trail for people coming after you. But you can also make a combination with a Vietnam Foot Trap and then they are very nasty. The idea is, the person is going though the trip wire and set’s the Alarm. Nobody is around so the person is going to the alarm to shut it off, this is where we want to put the Trap. Be creative with that, I like it big time DeinStamm
Would you mind posting the weight of the frame? I'm curious if it is lighter that the original metal frame. Thanks
Nice Video, thank you very much. I am also learning, from Germany DeinStamm
Great content Brother 👍🏽
In Steubenville thugs and druggies were using Union Cemetery and the trail system to Beatty Park to ingress/egress. Whenever I went hiking thru there, I'm always strapped with something with at least 18rds. Plus extras 😂
Yea I hear that place is nuts

Would have been way better to be in tan this time of year
Fun video... As a long time retired light armored recce guy.. I have done a lot of ops and op training ...a good op is also defensible ... you need a target and method of reporting to higher ... never have an OP on a lone or outstanding feature.. or a crest ... never leave in day light always under the cover of darkness... you need to make drawing of the main areas around your target .. setup RV to get to and regroup if the OP is breached ... plan another alternate OP site...
What about ohio? Nazi's marching there! That ain't right.whats your take on that? I'm a concerned American about this, precarious direction we're headed.thank you, just started following the channel, looking forward to learning,

Good video Jay another good point near wear black an never to close to paths when I went thru scout school they use to teach un never get up too close to a tree as it doesn't look natural thank brother for sharing
Interesting video. I carried out OPs as part of my job in the military for over 20 years. A few points (not criticisms) based on my experience for info; 1. If you're there to provide early warning, it's a Standing Patrol rather than an OP. 2. An OP is there to observe a target, gather information and pass it back to HQ. Established comms are essential. 3. Generally OPs are in position for several days, so you need to think about food, water, shelter, rest, rotation of duties, sanitation etc. 4. You need to camouflage your position to some degree, your background is open. A hostile force could approach from any angle. 5. Scouts wouldn't normally leave an OP, for risk of compromise. If you have to send people forward to confirm information, it's called a Close Target Recce (CTR). This is a skill/drill in itself. 6. You can't man an OP on your own, you need someone to provide protection. In the military we do it with six guys, 3 in the OP and 3 in the LUP to the rear. There may be slight differences in SOPs over in the States.
Any good books to read
@@user-tw8ov to be honest none of my training was done via reading, it was practical instruction on military courses, then carried out on operations.
@@PreparedPathfinder can you make vids for us like ctr,battle drills, stalking,recon tactics,and any other
Same, 25 years of doing this (but for the US). Yeah we (US) use OPs as both, they can provide early warning and are not necessarily tied to an NAI and PIR(s) for that purpose. We would run two man for a limited period (very limited) but 4-5 from a scout team is the norm. Adapting it for “normal” people is tough, necking it down to something a two (or even one) man can take on is where the value is. Plenty of other info from doctrine and experience that informs the how to for the taxpayer funded orgs, the graduate level work is adapting it to regular folk, adapting it while still maintaining sound tactical practices. Security (as you know all too well) is the ultimate challenge for these use cases.
@ roger, and to realistically achieve security you need at least three people. We don’t have early warning as an OP task, that’s called a Standing Patrol in the UK. More ‘just in case’ than collecting and reporting information about a specified target.
The beauty and the challenge of Reconnaissance is the ever changing defined area/ site, you will move with the dynamic shift of activity and increased threat/ risk assessments and their subsequent adaptation and maneuver in their range/ region of influence.
Awesome video Jay. Thank you for sharing.
Cheat sheet for the salute report is a good idea
The homelessness aspect is seldom spoken about when discussing the reality of operating in the woods. People will be very surprised that their prized “bugout” location already has inhabitants.
For real!
It’s common here in Maine. I’ll often be several miles into the backcountry and stumble across a meth camp. Guess it’s a training opportunity.
@@TexasSurplusPro yeah your absolutely right. I've been trying to get people to really think about the reality of the possible threat we could see from the homeless, vagabonds, and gang elements. These will become your future marauders when things go down.
I've debated doing a series like this myself. May you be blessed in the algothrim. If it isn't a product or gear sales video, few seem to care about the practical aspect.
Thanks for the video, Jay.
You're absolutely way too close to that trail intersection..
Good stuff
Great video as always!!

Get a sit pad with a waist strap so your bodyheat doesnt go into whatever youre sitting on whether its the cold wet ground .

Cold weather. Learn the art of layering. While keeping in mind weight. Every ounce counts. Keep on keeping on
That snow you are sitting in managed to migrate my way this morning
When it’s in the single digits and you’re in a trench, what you want is a cat. Combat kitty cats are one of the oldest force multipliers in history of war.
