SMVM: Who are we?
A well-armed citizenry is the best form of Homeland Security and can better deter disasters, crime, invasion, terrorism, and tyranny.
Our intention is to inform, promote, and facilitate the development and training of the militia. Everyone is welcome, regardless of race, creed, color, tint, or hue, religion (or a lack there of), political affiliation (or a lack there of), provided you do not wish to bring harm to our country or people. If you are a United States citizen (or have declared your intent to become such), who is capable of bearing arms, or supports the right to do so, then you are the militia.

Range Safety Day #2. The range safety day is a day of firearms work to help evaluate individuals to see if they are ready for more advance training with more move and shoot. This day will identify those who are ready for more advance shooting as well as identify the areas such as accuracy and other areas that people can work to improve to bring them up to speed for our more advance firearms trainings.
We do a variety of training. We make time for field work, range time, and encouraging our members to come out. Consistency is the key to advancing in your skills to learn.
Field work: This would include learning basic survival skills to more advance ones. Understanding patrol tactics, working on physical health, and getting out to enjoy nature while learning to blend in with it.
Range time: Ah yes, range time. Here is a topic that some view as the fun stuff. We work to find balance with time in the field and time on the range. While everyone should make time to get to the range on a regular basis on their own, we do get together for range days where we are making sure we focus on safety, improving accuracy, and teach people to shoot sooner, not faster.
Concepts: The overall concept of coming out to training is to improve your skills, your health, and overall abilities. Coming out to training is the responsibility of every militia member. Our people who come out on a regular basis have been able to create a strong bond of brotherhood and trust. This only happens through consistent participation.
Those who come to training will benefit. "We Do Stuff!"
