July 2009

Listening to you As we roll out the response for the reader's survey, it's become clear to us that you guys want more Unit Profiles; On Patrol features and much more Tried and Tested, so here's what we have done. First off, we have increased our extremely popular Tried and Tested section to three pages this issue, we've dropped the Company Profile section and replaced it with an amazing insight into the US Special Forces community. As I write this foreword I'm sitting in the Officers' Mess of 16 Air Assault as an invited member of the press to follow the Potential Young officers of the Parachute Regiment. This exclusive series of articles will build into a definitive guide to show you our readers what it takes to become an officer in the Parachute Regiment. Raider will be following the chosen few over the next year through the entire process, visiting Sandhurst, P Company, Platoon Commanders Course and eventually deploying with a newly qualified Parachute Regiment young officer. Raider has been working closely with the Defence Imagery team (with the correct guidance and following the correct procedures) to insure that we have an ample supply of photography (under the news of offsetting rule) to promote the British Armed Forces no matter where they are in the world. The futures bright, the future is Raider.

Oh my.................. Wow what a month it's been for us here at Raider, one thing that's for certain you guys loved our subs offer and guess what? Because of the huge response we got it's here to stay. Yep that's right a recession busting ﾣ25.00 that makes us the cheapest subscription of any Military publication here in the UK (don't forget that a fiver of that goes straight to Help for Hero's) and why I hear you asking? That's simple Raider is not all about making money, it's about providing a service and making sure you the reader gets value for money and Raider is certainly providing that. One of the questions we get asked a lot is that once the UK forces withdraw from Iraq, what's going to happen with our circulation into theatre? The answer to that is pretty simple. We will keep up our penetration, but just shift our copies around slightly, which means that there will be more availability in Afghanistan and at the same time we will be increasing our availability on British bases, whilst investing a huge amount into our in store promotions and news trade presence.

Look at us now

Who would have thought it, a year on and we have a successful publication. This issue (Volume 2 Issue 1) is where we start turning the heat up and celebrating the fact that you the reader have turned Raider into a must have publication. So to celebrate our success we've dropped our subscription cost right down to the ground. A credit crunch busting ﾣ25.00 will now get you 12 issues of your favourite Military publication delivered right to your door each and every month (that's a massive saving of ﾣ20 off our original subscription price) and if that's not enough we felt that it was about time that we gave some back to the industry that we report on so as from this issue ﾣ5.00 of every subscription received will be donated to The Help for Hero's fund. Raider for us is not about making a quick buck or turning a fast profit, it's about providing a service and that's why we have the largest penetration of any publisher into Iraq and Afghanistan (source PJHQ). This year will also see a major investment into our worldwide news trade presence and availability (which can only be a good thing).

We've also been listening to you guys and have changed a few things with this issue. Out goes the camo section and in comes more of the coverage you asked for. Direct Action - News from the front line is a new section that brings you all of the Direct Action news from all of the units that are deployed. Also it seems that our gear tests are going down a treat and again we've listened to you guys and with this issue we are launching yet another new section. Group tests, it's all about essential gear huddled together and tested. We've also extended our Tried and Tested staff, Liam Owen who joins us as an ex Royal Marine Commando with over 12 year's service.

April 2009

For those of you who have been part our readership for the last few months perhaps I don't really need to introduce myself. I have been writing for 'Raider' from its first publication - first with 'Tried and Tested' and also with occasional articles on military units and equipment. As you will have read last month, the Publishing Director, Paul Monaf recently invited me to take over the newly created position of Military Editor. I want to put over twenty years of military experience primarily within Commando and Special Forces at the service of the magazine.

It's all change here at Raider

Hello and welcome back to Raider (the fastest growing in terms of circulation) Independent magazine in the UK. Now before other publishers start wagging a disapproving finger at us what we mean by this is that our circulation simply continues to grow. Not only have we been asked by soldiers and our military contact to increase the levels of issues to Iraq and Afghanistan, but now we can proudly announce that Raider is available to Royal Marines as they come home through the Decompression facility in Cyprus, which means that for our advertisers and supporters we can boast an even bigger and more targeted audience, plus our global news trade circulation has never looked better and in fact this year we are committed to have a more visible presents throughout the world. Talking of Royal Marines we here at Raider can proudly announce that we have appointed a Military Editor (Dave Devenney) who you all know through our unique Tried and tested section. Dave will be responsible for a number of sections within Raider and joins the team with loads of new ideas and feedback from the military world, which we will be implementing over the coming months. Watch this space for a new and improved tri service edition of your favourite independent military magazine.

Flying the Flag

By the time you guys are reading this the Raider crew will have visited the Shot Show in the US and flown the flag for the British Armed forces. The Shot Show just in case you're not aware of it is the biggest collection of Military and shooting suppliers assembled under one roof anywhere in the World, we where there last year when we launched Raider. This year we're going back with a product that has rapidly established itself as a global Military information resource and a firm favourite of you our readers. Over the coming months we'll be taking a detailed and in some cases an exclusive look at the new products to come out of the show.

Going places

It's a bit surreal sitting in the safety of an office writing the January issues foreword in November, but I can't help think about 2009 and where were going to be and what's in store for us (but more importantly for you our readers). Well first of all our business circulation is on the increase, there are great things planned for the circulation of Raider to the British armed forces, our numbers are about to double in Iraq and Afghanistan and we're rolling Raider out to a number of British bases throughout the rest of the world. Our editorial team (admittedly quite young) are making friends all over the place and as a direct result we have been invited on a number of away days (watch this space for some amazing location reports). Simply put Raider is getting better and better.

Slapped wrists Okay I'll admit it I screwed up (well kind of) in the last issue of Raider I thought that I'd place a catchy tag line to this part of Raider "If in doubt empty your mag out" How wrong were we! (Thanks for the hundreds of emails). The rules of engagement for our troops deployed and I suspect other nation's troops are very specific and if anything completely the reverse of my catchy tag line. As publishers we sometimes forget what impact a publication can have on its readership (this one certainly did) and were very sorry. Who would have thought it? Its Christmas already Its a great time of year (I love it)! I know I look forward to Christmas morning and racing the kids downstairs to see what Father Christmas has left us. The look on their faces, Turkey, stuffing, drinking too much and having loved ones close makes it all worthwhile but for some families this year their loved ones aren't going to be with them. Fathers, Mothers, Boyfriends, Girlfriends and good friends are going to be away putting themselves in harm's way on Christmas day (as they have done all year round). For what it's worth all of the thousands of unsung heroes and their families who have already sacrificed so much, you'll be in our thought and I suspect our readers thoughts over this festive period. To all of our troops wherever they may be? Keep your head down and stay safe. If in doubt DON'T empty your mag out.
