THULS Velcro Cards
Tactical Handbook, Unit Leader, Small
THULS have become ubiquitous within the military community ever since they were widely distributed for deployments and all that GWOT money flowed from the mythical golden goose. Those days might be over, but THULS dominates as the standard for all-weather reference books with an infinite write and rewrite capability. So, don't get helocast off some coastline with laminated paper that's going to leak and turn into mush.

ANOTHER JARHEAD STORY
HISTORY OF THULS
LEAVE PAPER IN THE HEAD, TAKE THULS & STāNOTES TO THE FIELD INSTEAD.
Paper manuals get destroyed in the environments where military, police, and fire fighters work. The Marine Corps infantry, knuckle-dragging geniuses over at MIR (another acronym... STOP!) decided in the “2000’s,” to take the giant leap forward and print on a plastic. It’s slightly textured, so you can write on the cards, but not textured enough to wipe yourself with. They also gave an entire industry the middle finger and decided to disregard all of the common paper and notebook sizes.
That’s where Battle Board comes in to the rescue. We took pity on the boys up in New Hampshire or Vermont or wherever they are and designed a case specifically for the THULS books that have become ubiquitous within the field-manual obsessed community.
So, leave the paper on the roll and get outside with THULS & STāNOTE sheets.
BATTLE BOARD
MICRO SYSTEM
THULS ENHANCEMENT SKIN
We designed the Micro system around THULS data books and worked with MIR to launch a full set of templates, reference cards, and the revolutionary STāNOTE polymer sheets. Everything works together to form a complete reference and communication system in your pocket.
