In one of my earlier posts, I posted the website: www.1shepherd.com

There is a complete schedule for the fall and spring semesters there.  You will need to register that you are going to the events.  If you have any questions about the events or what is required you can simply email them at the contact info down in the lower left hand corner of the website.  They are very goo at getting back to you in a timely manner.

Ok, I just didn't know if you guys were planning on going up there during the planned courses or if you were trying to get enough people to have them possibly do a course for you specific. I will let my guys know about this.

The prerequisite Warrior Basic Course is 4-5 September from 0800 on Saturdat to 1200 on Sunday.  Cost is $75.  Also, take a look around the One Shepherd website, 1shepherd.com.

Wow From just what you mentioned as the gear you are issued and the information you are given this is an amazing gift to anyone wanting to learn some tactics. For $75 a person for idk how many people lets say 20. Thats about $1500 per school. That would cover about one weapon. So the price they have is a great price. I wish I was back in the states and had the time to be able to take one of these courses and see what I could learn. Though im looking into getting some Jungle Warfare training here soon so maybe I could share some of that knowledge with jon and the boys. Anyone remotely interested in getting better at outdoor games or even indoor should look into doing this course. Every little bit of knowledge helps out in the battlefield.

Shaggy,

When will you be back? You told me before you left, but I forgot. These courses happen every year around the same time, so you might get a chance to attend one.

As far as I know it was about 18 months from when I got here. Though that is always subject to change. So April 2012ish i think.
