ABOUT THIS NEW EDITION

Welcome to Part II.
It has been a long time since Sergeant Rick Tscherne wrote the first RANGER DIGEST book back in 1988, since then he wrote a total of nine volumes of what Rick would call No B.S. guides of hard-earned Tips, Tricks and Info for Soldiers and Outdoorsmen. The series has gone on to sell over 750,000 copies in the U.S. and overseas, and have been well received by American troops of all services and most ranks.

Since then the books have gone out of print for a while and were difficult to find. Seeing this as an opportunity to bring these classic tips and information to a new generation of soldiers and infantrymen, Loose Cannon partnered with the author to create a new Revised edition in digital eBook formats. Many items/tips may be a bit dated, particularly when referring to various equipment no longer currently used by the U.S. military or regarding products that may have been for sale when the guides were originally published. We have taken efforts to try to add updated info and or supplier links to various products/equipment mentioned in the books, but were not always able to recommend a suitable replacement. As such, note that some items or information may be out of date and thus was left in the guide to provide a semblance of what the original guide included within the context as a whole. The goal was to provide as much of the original structure and flavor of the original books in creating this new edition. Be sure to check the Misc. links section at the end of this edition for the most up to date information/gear suppliers and sources.

For more information about Ranger Rick, and his current projects see the Author Bio section at the end of the book.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

-

I know what your thinking, just when you thought you learned all the secret tips and tricks-of-the-trade from my previous Ranger Digest handbooks, along comes another. Right?

Well, that's what the Ranger Digest series is all about, learning new ways in how to survive in a military outdoor environment. And if this is your first Ranger Digest handbook, well, you ain't seen nothing yet. There's a Ranger Digest I, II, III, IV, & V handbook. (See enclosed book advertisement)

I want to thank all of you readers out there who took the time to write in either sharing a tip or trick or two with me or just to say "Keep Up The Good Work Ranger Rick!" I appreciate your kind letters, compliments, and recognition even if the United States Army never appreciated my field tips and tricks.

Be advised that over the years I have tried my best to get the Department of the Army to accept my many training tips, tricks, and ideas. But each time I submitted them through the proper military channels, they always came back disapproved stating, "Sorry, not feasible for combat related field conditions." But it's obvious they were wrong, other wise there wouldn't be a Ranger Digest I, II, III, IV, V, & VI today, right?.

Well, that's about it for now, guys and gals. As I always say in all my Ranger Digest books, if you got the time to drop me a line or two, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Whether it's to tell me about a tip or trick, say hello, or just to tell me I'm doing a good job or a lousy one. Because your letters, comments, and input DO COUNT. Take care for now.

PS: If someone should ask where you learned these tips and tricks from, you just tell 'em... "From my buddy Ranger Rick."
