OK Thats a term I have been hearing lately. I believe that it comes from the military, but I'm not sure. I like it. In fact I like it so much I'm going to start using it in my raving. ranting, and ramblings. I see DANGER CLOSE as a relitive term to describe a pending danger, and a gauge for taking action against said danger. For example a man armed with a SKS (rifle) will have different DANGER CLOSE perameters than someone armed with a pistol.

I'd like to hear some other opinions on this. If there are any instructors out there I'd like to know what you think of DANGER CLOSE as a teaching tool.

Thanks

Glenn Dee.
