  • REVIEW: Civil Defense Manual by Jack Lawson

    REVIEW: Civil Defense Manual by Jack Lawson

    Jack Lawson is one of the co-authors of the now out-of-print but still much sought after book A Failure of Civility. He has now published Civil Defense Manual, Vol. I & II: How to Prepare and Protect Your Neighborhood from Disaster, Riot, and Civil Unrest.

    Information on preparing for the complete and udder calamity which any of us feel awaits around the corner is not easy to find. Yes, I’m referring to a true WROL(without rule of law). Anyone heard that we are in the early stages of a 2nd civil war? Yeah – this book set is packed with valuable information for some pretty sh#$$y times.

    This book set takes you through the steps to prepare your town and neighborhood for a worst-case scenario(SHTF). Whether it’s a zombie apocalypse, civil unrest, or all-out economic collapse this book has the suggestions, the steps, the checklists to get you prepared.

    This is THE book which is a must-have in a preparedness library.

    Below are a few pictures showing the Table of Contents:

    When you are looking at the table of contents you see typical preparedness information such as food storage and water filtration. With this book, there is information on body armor, EMP, leadership, tools, intelligence, defense, night fighting, and so much more!

    This is not an inexpensive book set. Is it worth it? How much is your life worth? If you will spend thousands of dollars on firearms and ammunition but won’t fork out $100 on a set of manuals on how to survive the “bed stuff” coming – then priorities need to be in order.

    Reality Check: Information is the most underated and undervalued tangible asset in preparedness.

    Check out the Civil Defense Manual: How To Prepare and Protect Your Neighborhood from Disaster, Riot, and Civil Unrest by foillowing THIS LINK.

    This is a book set that I’ll be going through with a yellow highlighter. It’s that good.

  • Sweden’s Effort to Prepare for Invasion

    Sweden’s Effort to Prepare for Invasion

     

    Listening to Episode 162 of The Forward Observer Podcast was extremely interesting. The host discussed that the Swedish government has put out a guide on what to do should a major disaster occur effecting citizens everyday lives. More to the point – the guide’s true purpose and origin is the result of a possible Russian invasion. Due to Sweden’s inability to defend itself, they direct the population to behave in a manner that promotes guerilla warfare and distrust of governmental assistance after said conflict.

    Here is the podcast:

    General “stocking up” advice is provided for essentials such as food, water, warmth, and communications.  The government promotes “resistance” as a means of fighting back. Beyond a direct physical attack, cyber attack is also mentioned several times.

    I like a lot of the things in this guide. As mentioned in the Forward Observer podcast, what if you made a similar guide with general preparedness tips and provided to your neighbors? Possibly as part of a Neighborhood Watch program? Better prepared neighbors are likely to make it easier for everyone in the event of some type of disaster.

    Here is the guide if you want to see it: If Crisis of War Comes

  • ALERT: Russia, China, and World War

    ALERT: Russia, China, and World War

    There is a tremendous amount of activity going on involving Russia, China, Syria, and the United States. I am no expert on all of these current events so feel free to chime in with more information.

    This is not paranoia and things are happening fast. The United States government appears to be preparing for conflict with Russia. War? Possibly.

    A lot is going on and things are happening fast and tensions are building. I am not hearing a lot about these events in the mainstream media and folks I have asked about current events discount all of it as “nothing”. Hopefully they are right.

    As quickly as possible I will create an area on this site dedicated to nuclear war survival.

    I feel like I am back in the early 80’s.

  • Jericho Episode 2: Fallout

    Jericho Episode 2: Fallout

    Here is the second of a weekly installment discussing an episode of the popular TV series – Jericho – which aired originally back in 2006. Every Tuesday night we are watching an episode and then will discuss what happens the following day. It can be watched free on Netflix or purchased on VUDU. Jericho is also available on DVD.

    Jericho Episode 2 – “Fallout”

    Summary:

    That iconic morse code audio leads the viewer into episode 2. Storm clouds coming from the direction of the nuclear blast are seen by Jake and Hawkins and the alert is sent up. The town scrambles to find shelter for its citizens and communicate the coming threat of fallout to all.

    Issues develop as the old Civil Defense fallout shelter under the Medical Center is a wreck and it’s air filtration system inoperable. Meanwhile Emily Sullivan(Jake’s old girlfriend) has run out of gas on her way to pick up her fiance – and is oblivious to the situation. She is picked up by two fake police officers and she guides them to the Richmond Ranch.

    Things happen fast. People get evacuated to the one working shelter under Town Hall while the Medical Center shelter cannot be repaired. The decision is made to bus people to the local salt mines and shelter in place there.

    Hawkins displays some suspicious activity.

    A dangerous situation develops at the Richmond Ranch with the two fake police officers who are actually escaped prisoners. Jake leaves the safety of the mines and heads to the Richmond Ranch after hearing Emily sending out a distress call on a police radio.

    Discussion:

    Great episode that highlights just how unprepared most people and towns are to handle a significant disaster. Episode 2 highlights how the absence of normal communication methods can mean the difference between life and death. The town and its people are making decisions on guesses and theories. Even the simple weather forecast we all take for granted could mean the difference between life and death in Jericho.

    Don’t forget to watch Episode 3 next Tuesday night.
