CONDUCTING RUCK MARCHES:

Long-range movements are often a necessary part of infiltrating into an area containing an objective, conducting reconnaissance, and evading enemy forces, among many other critical tasks. Many historical guerrilla forces have had no other transportation than their own feet. For this reason, developing the fitness necessary to carry one’s own equipment during extended marches should be considered a major component of training.

Utilization of and familiarity with difficult terrain inaccessible to large conventional forces is one of the greatest strengths and defenses of guerrilla fighters. The ability to move quickly, efficiently and safely over such terrain could be critical to the continued operations of the guerrilla unit.

PREVENTING FOOT INJURY:

The feet are one of the most essential parts of the body to keep healthy for anyone performing light infantry tasks. Foot injuries are simple to prevent, but once they happen they pose a serious risk to safety and morale.

The first key to the prevention of foot injuries, such as sprains, blisters and infections, is to have the proper footwear. Boots should be supportive and snug enough not to allow free movement of the foot within the boot, but have enough spare room to accommodate a bit of swelling. Boots with a breathable construction will allow foot sweat to dissipate.

Socks are equally important. Wool socks are best because they wick moisture away from the foot, and synthetic or blended socks will dry more quickly than pure cotton. Pure cotton socks are to be avoided if at all possible.

As necessary, change wet socks and boots out for dry ones.

TREATING BLISTERS:

Preventing friction and moisture is best, but blisters are a given until one’s feet are conditioned for long marches. When hot spots form, they can be covered with bandaids, tape or moleskin to prevent further rubbing.

Moleskin is a type of protective padding that isolates a blister. To use it, cut out a piece slightly larger than the blister, then cut a hole in that piece the size of the blister and place it around the affected area.

Blisters should not be popped. Instead, thread a sowing needle with a few inches of cotton thread, then sterilize both using alcohol or boiling water. Push the needle through one end of the blister roof and out the other side, leaving about a half inch of thread on both sides. Cut the needle off the thread, then clean and cover the area. The thread will act as a wick to draw out the fluid without exposing the raw skin underneath or creating an environment prone to infection.

THE WILL IS THE WEAPON

Guerrilla warfare is a contest of wills above all else. Each side is attempting to break their opponents’ will to continue the conflict. Where conventional state forces have the benefit of numbers, heavy weaponry and massive logistics chains, irregular forces have their discipline and devotion to the cause.

History has shown time and again that these things cannot be defeated. Bullets can’t destroy an ideology, or the will of men to fight and sacrifice for their people. As long as one fighter remains alive to struggle and proselytize, the cause remains alive as well. As long as one man is willing to light the path to victory, he will rally people to his cause. An occupying force can resort to the total destruction of the people in order to pacify their resistance, but the more they resort to such measures, the more they strengthen the resolve of the resistance and erode their own political will.

Times change, along with methods and equipment; but the will to fight is eternal. It is the distant torch in the darkness lighting the sure path to victory. As long as the path is kept, defeat is impossible. The flame can never be extinguished.
