PAPERBACK EDITION<\/p>\n
How the Marine Corps’ Combat Hunter Program Can Save Your Life<\/b><\/p>\n These scenarios all represent Left of Bang<\/i>, the moments before something bad happens. But how many times have you talked yourself out of leaving the restaurant, getting off the elevator, or getting over your silly “gut” feeling about someone? Is there a way to not just listen to your inner protector more, but to actually increase your sensitivity to threats before they happen?<\/p>\n Legendary Marine General James Mattis asked the same question and issued a directive to operationalize the Marine Corps’ Combat Hunter program. A comprehensive and no-nonsense approach to heightening each and every one of our gifts of fear, Left of Bang<\/i> is the result.<\/p>\n About the Authors<\/b> Jason A.
