and Augusta) is roughly the same as the original settled areas of the state,
including Wilkes County.

The Army’s
General Dennis J. Reimer Training and Doctrine Digital
Library,
an electronic “library without walls.”
The Library is the single repository of approved Army training and
doctrine information. This has
absolutely nothing to do with reenacting, but it is nice to know that the
preferred method of clearing a building entry in an unsecured urban area is
the use of a tank round fired through the front door. All kinds of current military manuals and training materials.
