The Modern Minuteman concept is still being fleshed out and developed with lots of considerations when it comes to modern warfare. Among the many details to establish has been the apparent need for weapon platforms that can increase engagement tempo and firepower offering tactical options for small units and teams. This need has led to many different ideas and perspectives on how the modern minuteman should approach specialized platforms and some look to the military for answers.

Although the military can offer many valuable insights into fighting methods, the military doctrine and approach to the use of machine guns is very specific. In this episode Stephen and Jacob sit down with Ben Price (a fomer USMC 0331 Machine Gunner) to explain the ways military machine gun tactics differ from small unit auto rifle tactics. These differences are important to highlight because we believe it better informs the overall concept of what platforms best serve the mission of the modern minuteman.

The Modern Minuteman concept is still being fleshed out and developed with lots of considerations when it comes to modern warfare. Among the many details to establish has been the apparent need for weapon platforms that can increase engagement tempo and firepower offering tactical options for small units and teams. Having a platform available that can offer "flip-the-script" capability has been hard to attain due to laws and lack of demand, but times have changed.

Looking back at history and at fighting philosophies that were used to great effect, the "Auto Rifle" platform quickly emerges. To help explore this topic further and to truly breakdown the Auto Rifle and how it is attainable in topday's world, Jacob and Stephen sit down with Cody of Red Right Hand LLC.

In this episode, Cody talks about the Auto Rifle purpose and it's role within small unit fighting philosophies as well as highlighting the AR pattern Auto Rifle / LMG uppers that his company developes. We (the DDS Crew) have been extensivley testing these platforms and have been highly impressed by the capability that they offer.

There is so much instability and uncertainty in our world today, and it is important to do our best to stay informed and aware of what is going on. Although most global issues are well beyond our control and some don't have a direct impact on our local communities, it is critical that we acknowledge the big picture and prepare for downhill effects. On top of these global and geopolitical issues there are numerous issues that are more immediate for us here in America. 

In this episode Stephen and Jacob break down the importance of community involvement in regard to the bigger picture. Between foreign wars, global power posturing, and national security concerns, there is a lot that the modern minuteman and their teams should be paying attention to for overall preparedness and so much of that starts with the "inner circle" moving to the "outer circle".

HE  IS  RISEN!

Easter is a time of year that many people celebrate and recognize, but what is the true reason behind this? Between the signs of spring, bunny rabbits, and easter eggs it can be difficult to see where the true significance is. It is important to highlight and discuss the true reason to celebrate Easter and that is the death and resurection of Jesus Christ.

In this episode, Stephen sits down with Jacob to discuss the facts about the death and resurection of Jesus Christ and how it is the true reason to celebrate Easter. This is a very different episode than what is become expected on this show, but Stephen and Jacob both felt it very necessary to share the truth of the gospel and deeply discuss the varifiable truths of the Bible. We ask that regardless of your background you give this episode a listen and consider the topics and perspectives that are shared in it. 

*CORRECTIONS*

@min-17:45 While explaining the diety of Jesus Christ, Jacob intended to reference the heresy known as "Arianism" but accidently said "Arminianism". To clarify, Arminianism is not a heresy, but is a protestant theological prospective. Arianism (the intended reference) is a heretical perspective that denies the eternal diety of Jesus Christ and claims He was created.

We often talk about being prepared from more traditional perspectives; self-defense, medical, logistics, or sustainment but theres a whole spectrum of threats that aren't often discussed. Electromagnetic threats can cause a whole slew of issues and can render our world as we know it radically changed within a moment. Being more educated on the effects of such threats is very important and it is something that should start to take more notice.

In this episode of the Minutemen Initiative Jacob and Stephen have the opportunity to sit down with David Nussbaum who works for Dynamic Defense Solutions as a trainer and instructor. David has become very knowledgable in the area of electromagnetic threats and in this episode he breaks down some of the specifcs and details that are important to know when building a higher level of understanding.
