Handbook of Infantry Tactics for Paintball: Based upon US Army and Soviet Doctrine for Light Infantry Combat Operations

by D. Wagner

A paintball team can be as devastating on the course as an armed, trained and ready fire team of professional infantrymen. The fundamentals of paintball are not only marksmanship, but also the ability to move as a team, react to a threat and overcome the objective with force. To think quickly and effectively, and react decisively to any threat. It's more fun to kill on this playing field than to be killed and knowing how to maneuver yourself and your team to victory are the keys to success. This book is intended as a primer or refresher for those with little or no experience with or knowledge of modern military doctrine or infantry tactics. It is by no means complete in all aspects or guarantees victory in every engagement. But will give you some insight as to the actual methods used by our and other forces in areas of the world in which conflicts are a reality. None of this material is classified or restricted from public access, and written entirely from hands on experience and training. It may also prove to be useful for our soldiers who need a clear and concise overview of the methods that you’d use, or should know in the field. This revised edition expands on a few of the concepts discussed. Based on the authors' hands on experience and training from 11 years in the U.S. Army Infantry. The author has served as an enlisted member of Mechanized, Light and Anti-tank Infantry units and brings some of his experience to print for the paintball enthusiast.
