Tactical Patience in the Budding Resistance, by NC Scout

As all of you who’ve trained with me know, I view training our side and our people as the highest calling. There is no larger honor than the continual opportunity to meet and work with our nation’s very best Patriots, those who are taking responsibility for their own posterity and that of their nation. Our Nation. Many, many questions are asked during the breaks in training and to that point the answers are generally the same- stay the course, maintain tactical patience, and that when the time comes, and we know that it will, all of the conditions of a proper Resistance for this Nation will come to fruition.
Out west, after back to back classes completely full of Patriots who were deadly serious about who they are and where they stand- not pretenders, not cartoon characters clad in military camo, but real people- I was invited to speak at a political gathering of Libery-oriented Republicans in a large church. Not expecting a large crowd and somewhat taken off-guard, I was greeted by several political players from the region and an entire congregation full. Well over a hundred were packed into that Church, every one of them determined, serious in their approach and of unquestioning faith. Without a doubt, it was an honor to be there and I was humbled by the warm welcome.
When asked a number of questions, the overall theme boiled down to two key factors- the growing authority on which our Resistance is coalescing and the moral high ground to which we appeal. To the former, we can very clearly see this happening before our very eyes. To the latter, for every Christian of this nation, this should never be a question. Overall, it is critical to recognize that our Resistance is indeed growing, that we will obtain victory in this fight, and that we find ourselves in a much larger struggle than most realize- one of generations. At its heart, we can never afford to forget what grants us that which we are – a Christian Nation – and one which shall return to its roots in the face of great evil. The maxim rings true; the Left must lie about its true nature, and ALL WE MUST STAND UPON IS TRUTH.
We are earning victories. To those who claim nothing will occur simply due to failures of the past, I submit to you, with each cover up, with each slight of the hand, with each injustice, the fire grows. The very idea of ‘justice’ in this nation has become a joke. And so be it. For a meaningful Resistance to occur, there must be a recognizable thing to resist.
The Arizona recount, which, until its data was deleted, illustrated the substantial election fraud which had occurred. The very fact that they have denied even a basic request at transparency vibrantly illustrates the truth. Their elections are a fraud, their authority a sham. We have successfully ousted NeoCon Liz Cheney from Republican leadership. This only occurred after major pressure and much of it hinged upon her refusal to be a meaningful opposition party to the Left. Nor would she be.
And while some may say, this is politics as usual, there is a growing military element as well. Over 120 retired Flag Officers have promulgated their concerns including the following:
signatories of the letter include retired Army Brig. Gen. Donald Bolduc—a Senate candidate in New Hampshire, retired Army Lt. Gen. William Boykin, and retired Vice Adm. John Poindexter—who was the deputy national security adviser for President Ronald Reagan.
While their statement is a petition for peace offering a political solution, it is an important foundation block for the Resistance to grow against those who seek such peaceful solutions impossible. All Resistance movements must work on part of a legal authority, on part of legitimacy against that which usurps itself in the face of such. They require leadership in both the militant and political components, which is gaining ground. The people know, and a people’s patience grows thin. You must remain so. We are gaining victories, and will gain a great deal more, before the power structure has to take drastic action against the American people. And for that, we must stand ready.
Tactical patience is a watchword taught to me long ago as a young Infantry team leader. A wise First Sergeant, who prided aggression in his young leaders, pulled me aside on a training exercise when he saw I was a bit to eager to press an attack with limited numbers.
“Don’t rush to failure.” He said.
He was right. I had severely underestimated the tactical situation that night, and the opposing force would have slaughtered us. It would be a lesson that would stay with me, burned into my brain forever. Having stepped back and letting the scenario develop, I avoided a trap. It is one which has saved my life on more than one occasion, and one which resonates very clearly now. The frustration you have is heard, you are not alone, and the propaganda machine is working that much harder. They know full well the Resistance which is mounting. We must exhibit that same patience and never lose track of our own preparedness. We are growing and rapidly so. They have lost legitimacy and will continue to erode in that public trust with each mishandled or manufactured crisis.
The key for the individual is training and networking. The path of the warrior is lifelong, and as such, it is never enough to simply say one is armed as equating being prepared. You must be trained, and perpetually so, in as broad manner as possible. The ability to move, to shoot accurately, and to communicate absent a grid enables effective action. Your networking must also be there- not just with those of whom you train but anyone who is concerned regarding the direction of their nation. Our numbers are growing and daily. It is your duty to engage with them. Isolated is where the power structure wants you- deny them that. And when that time comes, when the final act of usurpation of this great nation resorts to intolerable violence, you will indeed be prepared.
We will win in this endeavor. Victory will not be achieved overnight and the struggle to restore freedom to this great nation will not be without its casualties. But you must always be engaged and prepared. Our Resistance is growing and we cannot afford anything less.
Stand ready.

    Thanks Scout! Very uplifting article. RIGHT ON!! I did forward to some “whoa is me” whiners in hopes they read it during their morning coffee!

    • NC Scout May 21, 2021 at 08:06

      Thank you!!

    Thank You Scout for those well placed words of wisdom.
    Yes, every day, many struggle with the throws of disdain
    towards our enemy…seeking to right ALL wrongs heaped
    upon this, OUR Republic. But we must be on constant
    guard, always ready, watching, with the steely resolve to act…
    When Our time presents it’s self. Proverbs 22.3 NASB
    speaks to this the best…
    3 “The prudent sees the evil and hides himself,
    But the naive go on, and are punished for it.”
    Adam Clarke’s commentary addresses this well…
    “A prudent man foreseeth the evil—
    God in mercy has denied man the knowledge of futurity;
    but in its place he has given him hope and prudence.
    By hope he is continually expecting and anticipating good;
    by prudence he derives and employs means to secure it.
    His experience shows him that there are many natural evils
    in a current state, the course of which he can neither stem
    nor divert: prudence shows him beforehand the means he
    may use to step out of their way, and hide himself.
    The simple—the inexperienced, headstrong, giddy,
    and foolish—rush on in the career of hope, without prudence
    to regulate, chastise, and guide it; thus they commit many faults,
    make many miscarriages, and suffer often in consequence;
    and the commission of crimes leads to punishment.
    Friends – Take heart, We’re NOT alone ! Trust IN OUR LORD !
    HIS mighty Holy Spirit is always with those who Trust IN HIM !
    Victory IS Ours…in Our Lord’s TIMING.

      Amen brother!

    NCS
    Excellent reminder for our side. Great coaching!
    Most people are impatient for results. Instant gratification is a modern social disease. Rural folks involved with food production are less prone to the disease because they deal with natural cycles and the time delays of growing plants and animals. No amount of wishful thinking can alter the fundamental germination process of cycles of the season.
    Moreover, food production is subject to chance variation at every stage. Stuff happens that’s beyond control. Weather. Pests. Bad seed. Just plain misfortune. It teaches one to plan well, execute diligently, yet be prepared for setbacks.
    Veterans know well the wartime analogs of the above ag examples. Tactical patience is an important skill to learn and practice. You hit the nail on the head.
    Every patriot should start a garden, if for no other reason than to learn to pay attention to cycles and develop tactical patience.
    BREAK.
    You touched on the classic organization principles used by revolutionaries since time immemorial. Parallel tracks for political, economic, and security operations. Compartmentalization for OPSEC and legitimacy. It’s easy to see if you look: American Revolution, Mao, Castro, IRA, Antifa, are but a few examples.

    • NC Scout May 21, 2021 at 09:11

      Amen to everything you said!

  6. boss21 May 21, 2021 at 09:04

    Good stuff. The whiners in my area are perplexed why I am not despairing like them. They can’t grasp of the honor to be alive at this time and be part of the solution.
    Materialism will do that to people.

  7. Luke May 21, 2021 at 09:12

    Nice article NC, it’s apparent our enemies want us to lay down with limited resistance. The psyops they use on their own people can be damaging but it’s also infuriating to those who see. I do believe you are correct patience is something we cannot afford to give up at the moment. A lot of people mistake that for inaction and maybe they are correct. But we must wait and prepare and let the sheep turn on the left/elitists as they apply more pressure to them. Every resistance needs a sympathetic populace to survive and move around in I would think. Thanks for the pep talk.

    • NC Scout May 21, 2021 at 09:17

      They want you isolated and believing all is lost. It’s the whole goal of psyops.
      And they ramp it up when they know they’re losing. Because if they weren’t, there would be no need.

  9. Dana Henry May 21, 2021 at 10:30

    I appreciate your wisdom. Excellent post. Excellent site. There are so many questions and so many thoughts that are too sensitive to ask here. I look forward to be able to ask them personally someday.

  10. Wyogrunt May 21, 2021 at 10:34

    Its the short one liner words of wisdom that we never forget. A unit guy told me years ago at a cqb class “don’t run to your death”. words to stay alive by. Good motivational article. Hope all is well with the family and our prayers are with yours.

  11. Grog May 21, 2021 at 11:12

    To NC Scout and the many long-time commenters on here, THANK YOU.
    For helping me keep my head on straight, up and on a swivel.
    Continuing to learn, adapt and succeed in all my endeavors.
    Staying frosty here….

  12. John May 21, 2021 at 13:42

    You have no idea how much I hope you are right while at the same time I am not at all sure you are. I see the enemy owning the streets while we fear to even publicly disagree. They operate out in the open and take territory while we don cammo and hide behind trees.
    It would really lift my spirits if just one of our people struck back and did NOT get caught. An Antifa brat’s car being incinerated or, better yet, his mommy’s loft being torched while she was at yoga class would be music to my ears.
    Until then, I of the opinion that a food handlers’ permit or a bartender’s license will put a person in a position to rack up a higher enemy body count than a sniper rifle and a ghillie suit.
    My 2¢.

    • NC Scout May 21, 2021 at 14:16

      They’re not “taking territory” at all.
      Lay off the TV. Get out and train.

      • John May 21, 2021 at 17:38

        I gave up watching television when you were still a child.
        And by train I assume you mean rural guerilla warfare such as you teach. I have already told you I believe the average bartender is in a better position to rack up enemy kills than anyone who attends your classes.
        A dedicated serial killer or an assassin is much more likely to reduce the enemy’s ranks. That is why I hope you are right because otherwise it means the life of a fugitive.
        But I have already learned that you are contemptuous of any who even slightly disagree with you.

        • NC Scout May 22, 2021 at 05:20

          “ But I have already learned that you are contemptuous of any who even slightly disagree with you”
          If by that you mean zero tolerance for internet idiots, then yep. Got me.
          Nobody here owes you shit. You had your free comment now crawl back to your hole.
          Glow harder buddy.

        • JD May 22, 2021 at 09:18

          Teaching moment for everyone other than John (who is likely incapable of learning/listening)
          People who run off at the mouth like John is doing with “It would really lift my spirits if one of our people struck back….” and making references, which could be interpreted as encouraging others to tampering with food/drinks are typically dangerous to organizations to have around. When you look at most, if not nearly all, of the people who get rolled up by the various Alphabet Boys out there, there is typically an information/agent provocator at the center of the “conspiracy”. When they can implant/turn a member and they don’t even have to “encourage” loose talk, that’s even better for Them.
          People who run off at the mouth, in a PUBLIC setting, are just asking for everyone to get rolled up. Even joking/sarcastic agreement can look badly, especially if one person has a job (in the above example) as a bartender, and then looks up various topics out of curiosity (Act of Furtherance). It’s not that difficult to shoehorn things into a Conspiracy charge. Combine this with the fact that Grand Juries are one sided and FREQUENTLY go along with the Prosecutor, and it makes a bad day for everyone.
          If someone was going to discuss questionable activities, I’d make DAMN sure you know EXACTLY who you are talking with and be willing to trust your life, and your family’s lives, to them, because that is what you are doing (can’t help anyone from inside prison).
          As NCS alluded, people like John are radioactive.
          I’m not saying he’s necessarily a Fed or an informant (although if you think that the State isn’t actively monitoring sites like this one, I’d love to sell you some oceanfront property in AZ), just that this type of behavior/talk is low hanging fruit to FSU for everyone around them.

    • JD May 21, 2021 at 18:42

      What’s Mommy’s crime? Are we about to start enacting Corruption of Blood against family members?

      • Patriotman May 22, 2021 at 08:46

        Agreed – it’s a stupid idea and an easy way to turn the community against you. Get her house, and suddenly the neighbors house goes too? Naw. Not targeted enough.

        • NC Scout May 22, 2021 at 08:52

          Its always interesting to see clowns post this kinda stuff up. They have no idea what they’re talking about and everyone knows it except for them.

          • Patriotman May 22, 2021 at 11:31

            Could not have said it better.

        • Historian May 22, 2021 at 09:23

          One could scarcely imagine a tactic better calculated to turn the bulk of the undecided population against FreeFor than to engage in indiscrimate attacks against innocent bystanders. Why would any true Patriot suggest something at the same time so evil and so foolish?
          Oh, wait……(grim smile)

          • John May 22, 2021 at 11:19

            You asked, I’ll answer:
            Well for starts, these liberal wine mommmies are the logistics base of Antifa which makes them a legit target. From a law enforcement perspective they are aiding and abetting a criminal enterprise. By giving aid and comfort to avowed, sworn, admitted, proclaimed, active and violent enemies of the US and its Constitution they are guilty of treason.
            But I judge from your question that, like many on the right, you are concerned about the Rule Of Law and don’t want to violate the law. The end result of such a stance is that one waits until the despots pass a law legallizing armed resistance to their despotism. I think we should at least practice thinking about the day when we just might have to defend ourselves ILLEGALLY. I am thinking along those lines and that line of thought has led me to conclude Antifa mommies should be targetted in some way.
            That’s it. Nothing more to add

          • NC Scout May 22, 2021 at 11:40

            “ the US and its Constitution they are guilty of treason.”
            Now you’re a legal expert? (They’d be guilty of sedition, not treason.)
            So you’re advocating extrajudicial killings of third parties. Let’s make that clear.

          • Patriotman May 22, 2021 at 11:30

            :) hmmmmmm

        • Johnny Paratrooper May 22, 2021 at 14:11

          And for the same amount of effort, recon, and lifetime prison sentence due to crimes committed; One could simply attack the enemy… But somehow that’s lost on them…

    MUCH needed post; leadership is part carrot, part stick, but most of all eye on the ball, the mission, the target. Agreed that you go around thinking your are just about the only won, but in face to face conversation you realize there are at least a few more of you. And the pragmatic question will remain ‘how to best organize,’ and I reckon the answer will continue to be ‘as best you can.’

  14. Machine Trooper May 21, 2021 at 21:40

    Outstanding post, Scout. Thanks.

  15. Cal 7.62 May 22, 2021 at 09:37

    Thank you Scout. I’m going to share these timely words of encouragement with my people.

  16. Aquietman May 24, 2021 at 23:04

    An outstanding essay. Your timing was perfect, I am naturally an aggressive person and it has taken many bloody noses in life to eventually learn watch you are counseling. As you and many others have discussed….every day plan,train and provisions.
