Extracting actionable intelligence from an uncooperative suspect is a subject fraught with difficulty. When the stakes are as high as those of anti-Soviet counterintelligence investigations of the Cold War, those difficulties multiply.

This unique, now-declassified manual makes an unflinching and in-depth examination of the techniques of the CIA interrogator tasked with tracking down and exposing moles, sleepers, double-agents and more. It equips the reader with the tools to read, question, influence, manipulate and eventually break even the most recalcitrant subject - and the ability to recognize when these powerful techniques are used against you!

Its treatment of the human dynamic between interrogator and interrogatee, and the fundamentals of the counterintelligence mindset, are evergreen and highly instructive. Far from being a historical document only, this is a profitable read for anyone who wishes to better-understand the strategy, tactics, and interplay of the battle for possession of knowledge played out between investigator and suspect.

Moreover, its frank treatment of 'coercive' techniques is a unique and salutary education in the ways of intelligence operatives and secret police around the world - in particular, those of countries ruled by repressive regimes whose representatives may not observe the 'profound moral objection[s] the book describes. - From the Publisher's Introduction.

Please note: for your reading pleasure, the publisher has re-drawn numerous illustrations throughout this book, due to the low resolution of the original. This edition is therefore the only high-resolution version available in the market.

For the population of an area occupied by a hostile or tyrannical government, foreign or domestic, the existence of a resistance movement is often the only hope of freedom against the odds.

This book demonstrates how to successfully rebel against and overturn such a government, by building an underground organization of like-minded individuals capable of exercising the full spectrum of resistance - from winning hearts and minds to waging open armed insurrection and guerrilla warfare.

Created by the United States Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School, this manual not only equips the Special Forces operator with the knowledge necessary to instigate unrest and rebellion in foreign enemy nations, it also enables all readers not only to prepare for the worst-case scenario at home but to recognize when these powerfully influential techniques are used against them.

There is another type of warfare-new in its intensity, ancient in its origin-war by guerrillas, subversives, insurgents, assassins; war by ambush instead of by combat, by infiltration instead of aggression, seeking victory by eroding and exhausting the enemy instead of engaging him. It preys on unrest. President John F. Kennedy, 1962

MASTER COMBAT MEDICINE

• FULL-SIZE FORMAT - **biggest edition available anywhere**: giant 8.5 x 11 size means large, clear print and pictures.
• Complete & unabridged
• Batteries last hours, books last decades. Get the print edition!

The 75th Ranger Regiment Trauma Management Team (Tactical) are the most revered combat medics in the U.S. Army. The Ranger Medic Handbook contains the distilled wisdom of hard-won experience over decades in combat around the world, in depth and detail, including dozens of easy-to-follow diagnostic and procedural flow charts that will let you correctly and effectively respond to a huge variety of medical situations, both life-threatening emergencies and every-day discomforts.

RANGER MEDIC CHARTER
SOCM ATP
(Special Operations Combat Medic Advanced Tactical Practitioner)

Shoot and engage targets to defend casualties and self.

Operate relatively independently with highly-dispersed highly-mobile combat formations in an austere environment.

Communicate via secure and non-secure means.

Move tactically through unsecured areas.

Absolute master of the basics through pre-hospital trauma life support and tactical combat casualty care.

Timely, consistent, and competent provider of advanced trauma management within scope of practice.

Practitioner who assists licensed medical providers with medical emergencies and routine care encountered while in garrison, training, and during deployments.

FOREWORD

Historically in warfare, the majority of all combat deaths have occurred prior to a casualty ever receiving advanced trauma management. The execution of the Ranger mission profile in the Global War on Terrorism and our legacy tasks undoubtedly will increase the number of lethal wounds.

Ranger leaders can significantly reduce the number of Rangers who die of wounds sustained in combat by simply targeting optimal medical capability in close proximity to the point of wounding. Survivability of the traumatized Ranger who sustains a wound in combat is in the hands of the first responding Ranger who puts a pressure dressing or tourniquet and controls the bleeding of his fallen comrade. Directing casualty response management and evacuation is a Ranger leader task; ensuring technical medical competence is a Ranger Medic task.

A solid foundation has been built for Ranger leaders and medics to be successful in managing casualties in a combat environment. An integrated team response from non-medical personnel and medical providers must be in place to care for the wounded Ranger. The Ranger First Responder, Squad EMT, Ranger Medic Advanced Tactical Practitioner, and Ranger leaders, in essence all Rangers must unite to provide medical care collectively, as a team, without sacrificing the flow and violence of the battle at hand.

An integrated team approach to casualty response and care will directly translate to the reduction of the died of wounds rate of combat casualties and minimize the turbulence associated with these events in times of crisis. The true success of the Ranger Medical Team will be defined by its ability to complete the mission and greatly reduce preventable combat death. Rangers value honor and reputation more than their lives, and as such will attempt to lay down their own lives in defense of their comrades. The Ranger Medic will do no less.

I will never leave a fallen comrade...

IMPORTANT: unlike other versions available, this is NOT the old, outdated FM 3-90; this edition contains the Army's current tactical documentation: ADP 3-90, FM 3-90-1, and FM 3-90-2 - all in one volume.

Thinking tactically is the key to gaining a fully four-dimensional understanding of the challenges facing you, and overcoming them - whatever they may be. The tactical level is where the rubber meets the road and elaborate plans are often necessarily discarded in favor of brutal realism, cunning, ruthless leverage of any and all assets on the battlefield, and a visceral grasp of the realities of victory - or defeat.

Tactics is an art and a science, and none can teach it better than the United States Army, whose personnel daily experience the knife-edge possibilities of tremendous success or terrible failure and who must therefore train to be the fittest, best-equipped tacticians in the fight.

Whatever your role, whatever your organization - using this fascinating and revealing book to train yourself to think tactically will pay dividends when you next find yourself in a conflict, whether it is a battle of wills, words, or weapons.

About the Series:

The University of Life Library was founded to publish a uniform collection of beautiful, heirloom-quality volumes of the great works of politics, philosophy, economics, science and fiction, the reading of which could provide all people not only with great enjoyment but, at minimal expense, with the benefits of a traditional, classical education.

The Library's titles are chosen to illustrate, reinforce, and promote further inquiry into those concepts and values that originated in the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome and, being expanded and improved-upon by the greatest minds of Europe and the Americas over many centuries, particularly during the Enlightenment, form the bedrock of Western civilization.

Being the embodiment of the virtues enabling the creation of the United States of America, that nation most influenced by the Enlightenment's illumination, and founded upon its precepts, each title opens with an illustration of Columbia, based on John Gast's iconic 1872 painting, American Progress.

Additionally, each title is illustrated with related scenes.

We hope our editions can provide entertainment, education and inspiration to the young and mature alike. We strive to provide a collection of well-loved, widely-varied works that will take pride of place on the bookshelves of families and businesses for generations to come.

THE AMERICAN WAY OF SPECIAL OPERATIONS WARFIGHTING

• Current edition ADP 3-05, big 8.5 x 11 format - large, clear text & illustrations.
• Batteries last hours, books last decades. Get the print edition

ADP 3-05, Special Operations, describes the role of United States Army Special Operations Forces (ARSOF) in the U.S. Army's operating concept to Shape operational environments in the countries and regions of consequence, Prevent conflict through the application of special operations and conventional deterrence, and when necessary help Win our nation's wars. It will outline ARSOF's requirement to provide in the nation's defense unequalled Surgical Strike and Special Warfare capabilities. Together these two different but mutually supporting forms of special operations comprise the American Way of Special Operations Warfighting.

The relevance of Army Special Operations Forces has never been greater. They are the cornerstones to the Joint Forces fighting our nation's wars, maintaining alliances, building partner nation capacity, developing surrogate capabilities, or conducting unilateral special operations. The future will likely increase SOF's role at not only the tactical level but also at the operational level as the requirement for long-term SOF campaigns grows. So long as belligerent nations continue to employ nonconventional means against us and terrorist networks continue their efforts to strike our homeland and our interests abroad, ARSOF will remain an indispensable member of the joint and interagency team.

HOW TO WIN WARS AGAINST OPPONENTS OF ANY SIZE

• Current edition FM 3-0, big 8.5 x 11 format - large, clear text & illustrations.
• 350+ pages - complete & unabridged
• Batteries last hours, books last decades. Get the print edition

As the United States Army faces potential operational environments significantly more dangerous than those of Iraq and Afghanistan, it is more critical than ever to prepare for large-scale ground combat operations with speed and stringency.

This newly-updated book provides the doctrine for that preparation, and is a fascinating insight for Soldiers and civilians alike into the steps that the Army, the joint force, and the nation as a whole must take to adjust to new realities of technology, extremist ideologies, and resurgent global competitors and adversaries such as Russia, China and North Korea.

Operations provides the structural approach for our theater armies, corps, divisions and brigades to address the challenges of shaping operational environments, preventing conflict, prevailing during large-scale ground combat, and consolidating gains to follow through on tactical success. It is about how we deter adversaries and fight a peer threat today, with today's forces and today's capabilities.

As such, Operations is a vital book for leaders within the Army and joint force, and also for leaders and entrepreneurs in all industries where planning for conflict with competitors of all sizes - including those with greater resources than one's own - is a key task.

Two chapters describe operations to defeat enemy subversion of U.S. partners (such as Japan, Taiwan and South Korea) - fundamental to avoiding war. Three chapters describe operations to defeat enemies on the battlefield - fundamental to winning wars. The final chapter describes operations necessary to ensure enduring outcomes - fundamental to achieving the ultimate strategic goals of promoting liberty, democracy, and an environment in which American interests and values may continue to flourish.

THE LANGUAGE OF ARMY TERMINOLOGY, ACRONYMS AND SYMBOLOGY

• Current edition ADP 1-02, big 8.5 x 11 format - large, clear text & illustrations.
• Batteries last hours, books last decades. Get the print edition

Army Doctrine Publication (ADP) 1-02 provides foundational doctrine for establishing and using Army terms, acronyms, and symbols. It discusses how a common language is essential to the effective conduct of military operations. It describes how doctrinal terms and symbols enhance communication among military professionals and ensure a common understanding of doctrinal principles. ADP 1-02 addresses why terms and symbols are important.

A common set of doctrinal terms and military symbols is one of the most important elements in a military force's ability to communicate when conducting operations; the force cannot function effectively without it. Terms and symbols can communicate a great deal of information with a simple word, phrase, or image. Each time a term or symbol is used, it helps eliminate the need for a lengthy explanation of a complex idea. For example, when a unit leader tells Soldiers to conduct a zone reconnaissance, they know exactly what they must accomplish.

This publication begins by discussing the professional language of land warfare. It then discusses terminology, followed by acronyms and abbreviations. It concludes by discussing the role of symbology in relation to doctrine. This is tied together by their importance in conducting military operations.

Note: Second Edition

BUILD WARRIOR FITNESS

Military leaders have always recognized that the effectiveness of Soldiers depends largely on their physical condition. Victory - and even the Soldier's life - often depend upon strength, stamina, agility, resiliency, and coordination. To march long distances in fighting load through rugged country and to fight effectively upon arriving at the area of combat; to drive fast-moving tanks and motor vehicles over rough terrain; to assault; to run and crawl for long distances; to jump in and out of craters and trenches; to jump over obstacles; to lift and carry heavy objects; to keep going for many hours without sleep or rest - all these activities of warfare and many others require superb physical conditioning.

This comprehensive handbook contains not only the information required to get yourself fighting fit, but the leadership philosophy and framework necessary to create your own physical training programs as a fitness instructor or trainer. Its level of detail and quality of instruction are second-to-none, based on the U.S. Army's decades of unique experience creating warriors.

Covering every aspect of training the human body for the test of combat, from dozens of fully-illustrated exercise drills to instructions on building your own military-grade obstacle course, there is no better resource for the Soldier, student or fitness professional available anywhere.

Current edition note: this publication supersedes the old TC 3-22.20 and FM 21-20.

What are the key differences between the seasoned soldier and the untrained person? Two words: character and capability.

CHARACTER means possessing a clearly-defined, well-founded system of values and ideology: honor, loyalty, esprit de corps, personal standards, collective and individual responsibility.

CAPABILITY means possessing the knowledge and training to act correctly and effectively under any circumstances, using skills both innate and learned, to defeat human enemies and challenges of environment - and achieve success, whatever the odds.

The combination of these qualities creates the warrior - a person whose greatest asset is not the mere capacity to apply violence, but the ability to walk tall, confident and unafraid in the face of any danger.

Covering an astonishing variety of topics, this unique manual may be the single greatest source of character- and capability-building education ever made available under one cover for military personnel and civilians alike.

Duty, honor, country. Those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, and what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn.

General Douglas MacArthur

About the Series:

The University of Life Library was founded to publish a uniform collection of beautiful, heirloom-quality volumes of the great works of politics, philosophy, economics, science and fiction, the reading of which could provide all people not only with great enjoyment but, at minimal expense, with the benefits of a traditional, classical education.

The Library's titles are chosen to illustrate, reinforce, and promote further inquiry into those concepts and values that originated in the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome and, being expanded and improved-upon by the greatest minds of Europe and the Americas over many centuries, particularly during the Enlightenment, form the bedrock of Western civilization.

Being the embodiment of the virtues enabling the creation of the United States of America, that nation most influenced by the Enlightenment's illumination, and founded upon its precepts, each title opens with an illustration of Columbia, based on John Gast's iconic 1872 painting, American Progress.

Additionally, each title is illustrated with related scenes.

We hope our editions can provide entertainment, education and inspiration to the young and mature alike. We strive to provide a collection of well-loved, widely-varied works that will take pride of place on the bookshelves of families and businesses for generations to come.

The true university of these days is a collection of books - Thomas Carlyle
