Regular RECOIL contributor Pat McNamara, or “Pat Mac”, is one of the most highly regarded teacher-trainers in the industry. Whether he's teaching via TMACS INC, through the auspices of Alias Training or through videos from Panteao Productions or BCM, McNamara has a reputation for really “laying the knowledge on ya.” He does this utilizing the experience he earned in a 22 year career in the Army, 13 of which were spent in an SMU (Special Mission Unit), from which he retired as a Sergeant Major (see more in the videos below) before going on as a civilian to help develop the Asymmetrical Warfare Group.

As some of you reading this are aware, McNamara wrote a book called The Sentinel a couple of years back (Become the Agent in Charge of your Own Protection Detail). In it he discusses mindset, simple techniques and strategies for home and family protection — if you haven't read it, you should. This isn't a theoretical treatise on prepping your family to assault a terrorist stronghold, it's a practical discussion on how anyone can be better prepare to deal with realistic emergencies and equally realistic violent encounters. You can buy that book here.

A few months ago McNamara teamed up with Tyler Grey for a web video series, produced by Larry Vickers, based on that book. Here's some background on that. You can find the ongoing web series in its current entirety here.
