Yesterday, on January 28th, I learned that the book publisher I submitted the Warrior SOS manuscript to made me a conditional offer. I was thrilled to learn that Warrior SOS will be published! What makes it even more exciting is that Jan 28th is the birthday of John Cloninger. I dedicated the book to him. He would have been 45-years-old.

If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a
quality which knows not fear, I have never seen a brave man. All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are the more they
are frightened. The courageous man is
the man who forces himself, in spite of his fear, to carry on. Discipline, pride, self-respect,
self-confidence, and the love of glory are Jeffrey Denninghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16844972777254823745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035323098633968605.post-11257432943679122202015-01-01T07:54:00.001-06:002015-01-01T07:54:19.115-06:00 Daughter uses father’s story of survival during WWII to teach true heroism

Eugene Nielsen in 2004 talked about how he survived a brutal massacre at a prisoner-of-war camp in the Philippines on Dec. 14, 1944. The fact he survived led to the rescue of 500 other prisoners of war. He died in 2011. (Picture KSL-TV)

A really great guy and very skilled, award-winning 3-gun shooter, Scott McGregor, recently suggested that I reach out to a Marine Corps MARSOC veteran named Buck Doyle who runs Follow Through Consulting, a firearms and leadership training company.

I
have little superstition in me as any man living, but my secret opinion has
ever been, and still is, that God Almighty will not give up a people to
military destruction, or leave them unsupportedly to perish, who had so
earnestly and so repeatedly sought to avoid the calamities of war, by every
decent method which wisdom could invent.

Thanks to Tom Spooner and ElderHeart.org for sharing this.
Below are the thoughts of Nez Perce Elder on PTSD:
They
said I would be changed in my body. I would move through the physical world in
a different manner. I would hold myself in a different posture. I would have
pains where there was no blood. I would react to sights, sounds, movements and
touch in a crazy way, as Jeffrey Denninghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16844972777254823745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035323098633968605.post-31875776985154353252014-11-25T08:10:00.001-06:002014-11-25T08:10:49.466-06:00Poem delivered at Gettysburg in 1869 Her once war-wasted arm,
Put forth to shield a sister land from harm,
Ere the last blood on her own blade had dried,
Shall still be stretched to succor and to guide,
Beyond our borers, answering each need,
With counsel and with deed ---
Along our Easter and our Western wave,
Still strong to smite, still beautiful to save.

Forty
summers have passed since the battle that you fought here. You were young the
day you took these cliffs; some of you were hardly more than boys, with the
deepest joys of life before you. Yet, you risked everything here. Why? Why did
you do it? What impelled you to put aside the instinct for self-preservation
and risk your lives to take these cliffs? What inspired all the men of the

Want to help fix your shot placement when shooting a pistol? I came up with a technique a few years ago
while instructing shooters that I think could really help.
Normally, for right-handed shooters, shooting low and left
with a pistol means a couple of things: anticipating the recoil (a.k.a.
flinching or pushing, as some like to call it) and a combination of sight
alignment/sight Jeffrey Denninghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16844972777254823745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035323098633968605.post-74150721040411291292014-10-15T10:28:00.001-05:002014-10-15T10:34:55.687-05:00Locking the (Pistol) Slide Left-Handed
Southpaws rarely get quality pistol instruction. Why? because most instructors are
right-handed. Thankfully, I had an
opportunity to work with a terrific, knowledgably and skilled instructor for
several years. His only flaw: he was
left-handed.
Seriously, though, working with my friend and fellow
training instructor, Matt, was an incredible learning experience.&Jeffrey Denninghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16844972777254823745noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035323098633968605.post-7287639487009428172014-10-15T09:38:00.003-05:002014-10-15T09:38:48.217-05:00Bow and Drill Fire TechniqueTyler is a friend and skilled survivalist.
