Thank you for downloading this Sample Edition of
PMCI, the FREE digital publication dedicated to PMC
Operatives. We hope it gives you a flavour of what
the full publication will contain when it launches later
this year and of course, we will let you know when
that will be.
PMCI is written by individuals with first-hand knowledge and experience of the subject they write about
- people like Col. Gerry Schumacher (USSF Ret.),
author Simon Chambers and ex-TL Dan E, all of
whom have an intimate understanding of what the
role entails and the day to day challenges faced by
PMCs.
Future issues of PMCI will provide a platform to
review and discuss the things to matter to all of us,
such personal equipment, training, employment and
lifestylestyle management - and these are also our
core fundamentals.
We hope you enjoy this Sample Edition of PMCI and
if you have any feedback or comments, or would like
to contrubute to future issues, please let us know by
