Pro's guide to CQB | Wingman cornering & mobility

so go backwards slightly and stop weapon up okay so for a friction of a moment what happened here that as soon as they were coming through that corner that gun in his body triggered that that angle over there that means if someone is standing over here he has the time to aah gun and huh I need to do something here even if I will try to shoot him and he will be super fast and he will go through the next guy the third guy whatever they will get shot why because it triggered the same another issue what which will be really interesting that is that if he will will see me what will be his natural reaction turning around but he is also coming around the corner right so we have been efficiency because no one is covering up ahead plus there is a high chance with pistol or mp7 that you that we will have here a friendly fire [Music] [Music] so we talked previously about the wall room clearing and we really focused on the individual skill and specifically about the rooms themselves right from the moment we are arriving at the door until the moment we are clearing the room let's get away from it for a second and let's talk about mobility generally okay from A to B or in other words me and my partner the number two want to move from from A to B make sense good for context wise don't get confused with too many possibilities think about that you are searching for someone right now when I'm searching for someone or I'm not so sure about my environment I want to be together with my friend correct I don't want to split too much do we agree about that we want to be together why do we want to be together a few words communication what else firepower very good confidence because no worries my friend in low-light conditions this is really important I know where is is there make sense good plus in terms of handling different angles it's more efficient because if someone with you is able to address the same angles that comes to you that you cannot address which this is exactly what we're going to talk about okay the wingman concept okay good I would like to have you standing here as the point man okay you all remember the word pointment the number one right again we talked only about two men capacity just to make a stuff simple and I would like to have the wingman who his number two let's go on your strong side okay he's number two point man wingman all right good wingman concept so the number two working space is like a rainbow behind a number one which means for example go out for a second if I am the number one I can work from here like we talked before or I can work from here okay it's a you behind him which I can utilize to handle different angles make sense so it see you that you directions of our going away from my partner not through him so for example stuff like this would obviously make no sense it's not clear for everybody just to clarify this okay again we're talking about mobility right during a movement their entire time our hips are to the front and all the time I will be behind my partner like this weapon up that's how it will look like so in few seconds you will start moving and I want you to focus on our legs and on our body posture okay ready let's move you see how it looks like that's how the movement will look like by utilizing the muzzle before flash and we're having a proper footwork we can catch up together we can move together and we can be together without too much wobbling around and so on and so make sense until now okay everybody understand the work the working area around him the working sectors and stuff very good okay let's practice it again nothing is in-game we're just focusing on the body posture I remind your hips forward normal walking eyes above the side okay by the way who sets the tempo number one or two point min wingman who sets the tempo who very good who navigates is the first man always right very good okay number two still have the responsibility to slow it down or to stop him makes sense okay you two stand by get ready weapon forward either both side when presented forward you move to me let's go and right and left very good muscle before flash Muslim before flash very good very good all right next two guys let's go stand by ready okay let's move right nice muscle before flash left okay slow down for a second stop like this okay questions stay like that can you see my hand right now not really stay like this can you identify me right now what do I have in my hand not really can you identify my hands right now only the left right if we're honest if you're under stress right low-light conditions okay not only this if there will be anything on the floor like a body like like like a hole we had it like last last year in this seek us for example you will not see it coming and you can get injured right so get it gone down a little bit just like him for example this is perfect example eyes above the gun gun slightly down okay and look what's coming look what's coming because you need to identify problems things you can maybe do in so on and so on okay when I will say threat you will get between sites just to prove that it's possible okay you ready let's go and let's move left contact right punch the weapon out punch the weapon out always either both sides walk normal keeps forward easy going easy going left oh very good right very good if the poor man is too fast slow him down take your hand off their handguard slow him down exactly very good weapon manipulation good right you can see how he's really bringing up the gun and only when here the clear line of fire he deploys the gun left right right right right right very good yeah very nice so down a little bit hips forward just walks normal exactly eyes above sight weapons going down just a little bit so you can really see also what coming in front of you it's a weapon down just a little bit all right left very good right left right left speed up speed up right very good only when its clean deployed very good all right outstanding ok guys so we talked about the appointment wingman the mobility and everything and we focused only on the mobility forward correct but now let's get back a little bit to reality in reality we have stuff like this right what is the problem here if I'm coming from there what is the issue I have here well I have a left corner I have a place which I cannot see I need to address it but in the same time I need to keep a gun to the upper head right because I want to be ready there is many ways of doing that some of those are more efficient some of those are not so flexible for different situations instead of talking too much I just want to take you into a principle based training and just to talk on it in few words explain it break it down and just practice it make sense I want you guys now to move into this direction and somehow handle this corner ok and after that I will show you my way you ready okay come back do it one more time so okay so for a friction of a moment what happened here that as soon as they were coming through that corner that gun and his body triggered at that angle over there that means if someone is standing over here he has the time to aah gun and huh I need to do something here even if I will try to shoot him and he will be super fast he will go through the next guy the third guy whatever they will get shot why because it triggered this angle another issue what which will be really interesting that is that if you will will see me what will be his natural reaction turning around but he is also coming around the corner right so we have been efficiency because no one is covering up ahead plus there is a high chance with pistol or mp7 that you that we will have your friendly fire ok so let's see how we can do it more efficient but in the same time how we can also tailor it a little bit into human behavior make sense good all right so we have two approaches to this either that the the pointment is at all time taking cover to the front which means consistent cover to the lung or that the team will be pretty fluid in terms of responsibility and they will work according to the principle of near to far which means the nearest problem to the nearest person is under his responsibility so for example if they are coming from here who is the nearest problem nearest person to the problem this guy over here right if this problem will be here who has their first priority he has it why because he is the nearest to the problem ok your near to far so we can switch exactly so there will be situations where you will have to switch between them you will have to for example if you will have that thing in the same time here like a t-section let's go like this remember you have a problem to the front in the end and you're too far right this is two things you will have to address first and only then this so you will have all of these games between responsibilities exactly exactly you can take it into two men three men damn information deformations and so on and so on which we will get back to in a second now to make it clear we have two variations for this the first one that the pointman is always consistent to the front for example I'm an individual who came out of nowhere he can't just take his eyes away from me right he has to control me correct so he's locked to the front or he saw some shadows over there right so this variation number one he's all the time fixed to the front here the number two has to do what you just did before fixing from left to right in according to the problem we have make sense version of variation number two there is no fixation to the front or they don't feel too much stress from the front and they'd rather solve problems that are near rather than far away make sense here the principle is simple the closest men to the problem handles the problem make sense good it's very fluid and actually it's really simple to do and it's really effective okay good okay let's break it down now specifically how we're handling that issue over here most of you had that issue before that when you pass through it the front of the gun triggered the corner or what we call telegraphing when telegraphing occurs we are alerting our opponent to our position and also to our intentions because if someone sees my gun he knows what that's probably I'm an opponent I'm a threat to him just like he's to me let's see what we can do number one over here weapon up number two is over there everybody remembered at 45 degrees 90 degrees in all of this it's exist here as well doesn't matter that there is no room here or a specific door it still exists here okay now pay attention imagine that this is the apex of the threshold right point one and number two they recognize this problem right you can recognize that something here is wrong correct so from here is eyes already orienting around here once you're a trained in this system it's very easy for you to tell what is 90 degrees and 40 degrees just by looking on it's on a certain edge of uncover for example make sense so what they will do here is the following go back for soon okay he will move he can see the problem coming correct move until 45 exposure stop from here we have what we call the 45 degrees you see that with the flashlight 45 degrees it will be really recommended to stop before that angle and to allow number two to take the step ahead he's not becoming really appointment but he will position himself slightly ahead let's see how it works you see that good what is really important is that the number one will compress the weapon why will compress the weapon because as you see this is also a reason why I told him to be the pointman he has a long platform that's life right sometimes will be issued with longer guns that's how it is okay so in this case what I would like him to do is to compress the weapon important try not to compress the weapon like this why because it's less natural to punch it out in case and the threat will emerge what I want you to do is to keep the weapon straight but just slightly compressed above make sense in addition pay attention to their elbows interaction here this is used for contact he knows where is and above all in case and he will need to bail out he will take him with him backwards remember from the human behavior this fringe mechanism that something happens and we go away from it if he will see any threat over there automatically he will flinch backwards and he he will take him with him backwards let's continue ready ok there start to slice stop until here the person in priority is him right correct he's doing the same thing we did with the room clearing the same posture the same progress the same decision-making later on when we will learn the advanced techniques like the ndia and the rest it does the same stuff he doesn't learn anything new right and the only thing he does is he starts to slice through on that corner what will be the next angle here 90 right okay let's get let's keep going okay he broke the 90 degrees you could see I didn't needed to tell him anything he already understood it hey guys the 90 degrees is beyond cover if we are honest if you will be under constant movement will be hard for you to be 100% behind cover or concealment but it's good as it get long story short soon as he get the corner number one can punch to the muzzle out it's okay he will have still a body contact with a shoulder with him in the back that we still if he bells away he will take him with him and from here as soon as he can see the corner which is there he can release it stand by and let's move okay very good stop in this case on purpose I was not positioning here any kind of like your closet or something that could have a depth into it right now it just just a straight wall and then classic corner until now it makes sense okay question why do you think this constellation this formation is well body movements why is this human behavior compliant who can tell me simple what else it's always the same system because the number one here doesn't need to learn anything new right same body work same 4590 he can always orient himself around the same thing the same thing that would lead him to the same type of solutions confidence but there was one factor here which was really important because we talked about it back then right offensive use of lethal force is gonna be rare so if someone is here you're gonna be reactive right okay and like in a case so I feel myself confident because if I have a thread in the front or the left I know my body stare as well and can shoot them guy all right me and it's like multiple flash very good is safe let me let me pull up on what you just said it is also likely that if someone knows we're coming and we will trigger him he will open fire right let's say even I [ __ ] up he saw my mother's coming in and he already delivered one shot what will be the natural human will be a response from a loud exposure or some strong flash in front of or if you see someone running to you like this right automatically doesn't matter how trainee automatically do be like this okay okay did you recognize the constellation between them can you get into a position real quick the number two who is the one who is in the highest chance of encountering a threat because well it's close it's here we don't know what's coming he has the elbow and his body positioned slightly in from the number two which means you ready and again I'm going to try to run to him surprise him or whatever he will take him with him not necessarily really take him but his movement will cause him to follow with him we're talking about just a few centimetres but that centimeters are the difference between I see him - I don't see him anymore what will be the result if I missed him and I'm trying to shoot him and that happens in force and force often the threat starts to follow them and then who is reactive a reactive proactive proactive reactive but again we'll get back to that later and I wanna break it too much so let's summarize it's very quick you guys will do it right here one guy here will be honest he will go to the corner and he will tell what he saw what's not again it's tricky with the long gun but this is a reason why I picked this guy up because he has a long platform and we can still do it ready three two one let's go 45 it's there let number two work all right how was it free did you saw anything did you had a chance not really okay yeah okay last factor I want to talk about it and that is the world's story of plate threat and plate to protect my friend yes we also tried to get the number two to be in line with the number one so he will if you're number one he will protect him from that angle but to be honest this is too reactive for me to consider it as a factor for this tactic flight care is applied care it's like it's like thinking about the airbag and how I position myself to the airbag in a car right what is important here is the proper footwork is the proper exposure time and management and the proper ability to and ability to properly readjust your position in case in a threat is emerging from that corner okay and we have your big fail-safe that failsafe is as soon as it will flinch out you will take the partner with him and Bruce safe get it are there any questions come on anything does it make sense to you honestly yeah okay good let's try it out okay so stop soon as you recognize from here that the 45 is coming you compress the gun as soon as you see that it compresses it you see the problem it's yours you will take a step forward slightly just in front of them a little bit exactly body contact and let's move exactly yeah body contact good and moving exactly you recognize the problem compress the weapon down to compress it down exactly try to get rid of the bad habit of twisting it and just line it down very good yeah very good very good yep yeah yeah very good okay 45 weapon down compress it let him take the lid you will be slightly forward elbow like this perfect and let's go yeah exactly you're with them yeah very good clean angle clean angle let's go very good let's go very good yeah very good body contact body contact body contact exactly and so let's go exactly be aware body angles yeah slowly slowly very good stop at the 45 compress take it slowly then he can tell it there is a door here yep he will body boom correct now roll with them and Sun and Sun and Sun okay make sense to everybody okay describe me in few words what is tactic and constellation can help you in your daily work okay not too complicated to learn right and it's the same thing basically in mechanics like we learn with clearing rooms right it's the same thing doesn't matter some the fedcon ofin whatever right by the way we talked about it previously what kind of structural shapes do we have your L shape but before we get here and let's say we're in the beginning what kind of a structural shape do we have choo Bueller okay so everything connects together we don't need to learn too many new things right very good okay it's all about consistency good it makes sense let's let's summarize it just in a few words okay when I'm approaching the problem the person who is the near nearest to the problem takes the responsibility makes sense the latest is the 45 and a 45 or before number 200 the person who responsibility starts to address it why does the number 1 the other person who is not responsibility for this is covering to any other problem like in this case to the front important is to be slightly behind the person who solves the problem why and this is the most important thing for you for example because one day maybe someone will jump on you or something will happen and that flynch mechanism will be a reflex that will try to persuade you to help you to survive a threat right let's flip that reflex will not just take place but in this time it will be compliant with your tactics how in the following way you push yourself into the person beyond you and then it will take you away from danger as long as you're able to understand that 45 compress the weapon get the corner and having this this constellation with with the shoulder and you're good to go make sense for everybody two simple principles personal responsibility start the work at 45 degrees number 1 compress the weapon at the 90 degrees make sense good as soon as you take the 90 weapon goes up make sense good are there any questions good all right let's go to the next row you

Near-to-far priority of work is a good concept. The closest problem to the closest person is their responsibility.

Also, plating BTFO. Buddy bunker and roll, eh Eli?
