[QUOTE="grwd, post: 1015225, member: 459"] [I][B]Principle One: Alertness "A commander may be forgiven for being defeated, but never for being surprised." This maxim is among the first to be impressed upon new lieutenants. It is equally applicable to individuals who aspire to a degree of physical security in today's embattled society. Alertness is, to some extent, an inherent personality trait, but it can nonetheless be learned and improved. Once we accept that our familiar and prosaic environment is in fact perilous, we automatically sharpen our senses. Two rules are immediately evident: Know what is behind you, and pay particular attention to anything out of place.[/B][/I] [SIZE="6"][B]Discuss...[/B][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
