TM-725-15 American Homeguard Anti-Terrorist Handbook

What is the American Homeguard & Were Do I Sign Up?
The American Homeguard is not a group or organization. The American Homeguard is an idea and a means acting out that idea. There are no clubs to join, no dues to be paid & no secret hand signs or agendas. The best way to be prepared is to be educated, aware and willing to use that education... The common criminal is more experienced with violence and crime then the average citizen who must defend themselves from the criminal. So then to defend one's life and family from the criminal one will learn martial arts, self-defense or carry a weapon as a means of self-defense.
This same philosophy is applied to Terrorism & to a degree all disasters. To be free of the fear of terrorism we must be free from fear. Fear is a weapon used by terrorists and not guns or bombs, sadly this is true of our own government as well. So then in this book you will find basic skill sets for self-defense & survival.
