hey I remember when i was in BOLC at Ft sill there were these little green ranger books( they were a series) that were filled with little ttps and cool suggestions like using spent .50 brass and a wooden mallet to make a ladder up a tree to use as a spotting nest. does anyone know what those books are called/where i could find them/ the info online?

I still have a few in good shape. Having been retired for 10 years, I just can't let them go. I will trade them for something, just to help with the cause.
