A special thanks to Matt Savinar of LATOC (www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net) for turning us on to these fantastic resources:

Mountains of Military Manuals (they cover EVERYTHING–Thank you, Steve!)

As usual, the news of the day is hyped beyond all recognition. Is swine flu akin to the deadly influenza pandemic of 1918 (Wikipedia: Spanish Flu)?

While his predictions may be overblown, he does remind us that static situations can change rapidly. Those that are most prepared are most likely to survive.

We are going to work on that next…
