T.A.G. (Tactical Analysis Group) feature their collaboration with Project Gecko for a specialized CQB (Close Quarters Battle) training session in South Korea. The instructor from Project Gecko shows the highlights of the three-day course, which moves from solo maneuvers to team-based tactics. The training centers on ITCQB, a concept designed for high-threat, worst-case scenarios where participants must deal with immediate dangers rather than just walking through doors and hoping for the best.
Despite coming from different parts of the planet, the teams found common ground in their approach to tactical education. The instructor notes that while cultures and perspectives might differ, the fundamental mindset toward combat reality remains consistent. It turns out that whether you are in Europe or South Korea, the goal of not getting shot by a training target is a universal language that everyone speaks fluently.
The partnership is anchored by two somewhat intense but fitting slogans: TAG’s "Develop or Die" and Project Gecko’s "Learn, Understand, Utilize." The instructor appreciates the effort invested by the local hosts to set up the class, noting their professional work and shared flexibility. Ultimately, the session serves as a reminder that staying relevant in tactical situations requires constant evolution, because as the slogans suggest, the alternative to developing is apparently much less enjoyable.
