225: American Reconstruction Concepts - Part II

from The Art and War Podcast

Nathan is joined once again by our favorite SERE instructor Michael from American Reconstruction Concepts to talk about survival, evasion, resistance, and escape tactics for the everyman.The duo dive into an after action report of Nathan’s experiences with ARC’s Grey Man Academy classes involving fieldcraft, avoiding a kidnapping, fighting dirty, and unorthodox tools for getting yourself out of a bind (literally).Michael also brings up training lessons based on hard lessons learned by real Tier 1 practitioners, how his experience as a SERE instructor in the US military shaped his training methodologies, and how people should plan out their EDC bag loadout.LINKS MENTIONED:American Reconstruction Concepts - https://arctraining.net/grey-man-academyhttps://go-bag-builder-pro.lovable.app/https://www.youtube.com/@ARC-Training/featuredGo-Bag builder tool - https://arctraining.net/go-bag-selectorKevlar shoe laces - https://www.amazon.com/s?k=fireman%27s+laces+kevlar&crid=3OFFWGC85P552&sprefix=fireman%27s+laces+kevla%2Caps%2C116&ref=nb_sb_noss_1Kevlar line - https://www.amazon.com/s?k=100lb+kevlar+line&crid=3J1L8Y2BECGCB&sprefix=100lb+kevlare+line%2Caps%2C180&ref=nb_sb_noss_1Titanium escape ring - https://www.amazon.com/Janders-Inc-Titanium-Escape-Ring/dp/B01D2X1S9I?th=1&psc=1Titanium escape pen - https://shomer-tec.com/products/titanium-escape-pens-1Paring knife - (buy in-person, ‘Pioneer Woman’ brand)Check out our link tree for all of our stuff:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://brand.page/theartandwarpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow the lads on IG:     ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nathan / Main Page: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/cbrnart/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠B.R: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/br.the.anarch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Al: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/freedom.visualizations/⁠⁠⁠⁠Phil: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/philmxengland/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
