As you might be aware, a bunch of our editorial team is down at a media event on Apache land down in Arizona’s Dragoon Mountains. We’re doing some tracking — something Jim Grasky of Trails Found is known for internationally — but more than that we’re working on and around horses. Grasky’s program, called to our attention by Breach-Bang-Clear, is called A Horse is a Village. He uses it to teach horse handling skills to SOF troops who may never have seen a horse anywhere but in a movie before.

What is it they say, "Respect an old man in a profession where men often die young"? This is Jim Grasky of the #TrailsFound tracking school. He's an 76 year old gunfighter who is hard as woodpecker lips. Born and raised in Montana, joined the Army and helped run down Che Guevara in the 60s with the 8th SFG (provisional) when there was an 8th Group. Did some "odd jobs for the agency" (his words, not mine) in between smoke-jumping seasons and helped establish the #BorderPatrol #BORTAC unit (as in, he was in the meeting when they decided what to call it). A blunt and outspoken man, he has much to teach those of us who pursue the noble profession of arms, and for that matter anyone who wants to be a better American. I will be forever grateful for the opportunity to train with him, and blessed to be given the opportunity to tell a part of his story. I urge those of you who might be interested to train with him while you can, for many of the same reasons you should have trained with Awerbuck, Cirillo and Rogers. I assure you, you'll leave the experience a better person and a more skilled warrior than when you started.
