British COIN (merged thread)

But in all seriousness work through the points and find every one is as valid today as they were 250 years ago - and I did not have to go search in a special forces manual to find them.

I spent a couple of hours at Rogers Island as part of a day trip early this summer and was a bit taken aback to find the monument which includes the Rules of Ranging to be in a generally unkempt status (below, after a bit of brushing up). The associated and recently refurbished museum on the grounds was quite nice, on the other hand: http://www.rogersisland.org/.



A fun article about the raid on Saint-Francis—which ended up going almost as badly for Rogers’s men as it did for the Abenakis—should anyone be interested.
