Imagine finding yourself in the middle of nowhere, fighting for your life and trying to stay alive. You survived the bombs, outran the enemies, even those mosquitoes trying to suck the life out of you. It was exhausting. You felt a slight itch at the back of your throat, so you reached out for your […]
If you have to choose your best pick of self-defense, what would it be? Pepper spray? Tasers? Maybe a gun? How about an umbrella? Remember the bar fight scene in the Kingsman: The Secret Service where Hary Harth (played by Colin Firth) beat those angsty men in style with nothing but his umbrella? You don’t […]
Those who have served in the military know that it represents a world and culture all its own. It even has its languages that service members speak in the different branches. Those languages also differ between the services. For example, in the Navy, a bathroom is called a “Head.” While in the Army it’s called […]

I would contend that none of these less-lethal weapons for self-defense that I will highlight are superior to a firearm in the hands of a well-trained person, but each of them has its place in either […]
Being outdoors is awesome. Nature is purely amazing, and it never gets old. Except when Mother Nature is pissed, like with a hurricane, earthquakes, huge fires, or something like that. Other than that, it’s always incredible and awe-inspiring. Hopefully, one good thing to have come out of the COVID-19 pandemic, is that people were able […]
I might have mentioned this before here on SOFREP… for those who haven’t heard it, I’ll be sure to say it again: camping in South Florida can really suck. This part of the country is like the Amazon, Africa, or Australia. A good part of South Florida is double canopy jungle and is the only […]
Recently, several of the writers and I got together in Ft. Lauderdale at an undisclosed location to have a writer’s meeting, dinner, and then meet some SOFREP members for a couple of drinks and cigars.
