How To Evade A Professional Military as a Two Man Team

12-Oct-2025
This video is part of our larger Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape series and provides a professional, safety-first overview of two-man and small-team evasion concepts. Drawing on lessons from military SERE and professional fieldcraft, we discuss team roles and coordination, signature awareness, and detection-avoidance concepts — including counter-tracking, counter-thermal awareness, and counter-drone/ counter-UAS considerations — in both high-threat and low-threat environments.
What we cover (high level):
• Team roles & coordination: how two-person teams organize responsibilities and communicate conceptually.
• Signature awareness: what “signature” means and why understanding sensor limits matters (thermal, acoustic, visual).
• Counter-tracking (overview): historical context, recognition of tracking indicators, and how professionals think about detection thresholds — framed as awareness, not tactics.
• Counter-thermal & thermal awareness: how thermal sensors influence planning and what sensor limitations trainers emphasize.
• Counter-drone / UAS awareness: recognizing drone presence and how professional teams integrate detection & reporting into safety plans.
• Movement concepts: high-threat vs low-threat movement considerations (risk management, mission purpose, and safety) — conceptual only.
• Training & safety: ethical, legal, and safety guidelines for practicing drills in controlled environments.
