Share your Military survival book here.
hello GLPers,
I have enough time to read so I would like to know what Military survival book do you know.
I know, a Military survival book at the hands of everyone is another problem.

Re: Share your Military survival book here.
Try these:
SAS survival book.
Older boy scout handbook.
Picking up the pieces.
Foxfire books (the entire series)
There are more but these come readily to mind.
Where spirit, logic, intuition, and truth intermingle.

Not military, but WHEN TECHNOLOGY FAILS by Matthew Stein is excellent.

(Cody Lundin's books suck, in my opinion.)

I can personally recommend these two. You have to keep in mind though your AO. Some of the things in the SAS book for instance may not apply in your particular area. Also, some survival techniques that are recommended are complete wastes of time like the "desert still" for gathering water. You actually burn more calories and sweat more fluids than you could ever hope to regain digging that hole.

Re: Share your Military survival book here.
General Troll is correct. Also depending on your environment; water, shelter, and long term food sources are at the top of the list for your immediate needs.
Military books are generally good for short term survival and will get you through the first few days and perhaps weeks. The next phase is longer term and will depend on seasonal changes and how a society is operating in general after the worst has come. Banding together with like - minded people in your area is your best shot at this point because time is not on your side at this point.

Go to the search bar above and type in "survival" it will provide you with several related topics. One of them has an excellent survival list provided by the general troll that will help you organize.

Thank you sir. hf

A note about that list: it was a basic list I found that covers many of the basics. I recommend a "list of lists" to help you prioritize and organize specific to your needs.

Everyone has different requirements and expectations of what skills and supplies that they may need when the SHTF. I suspect that there will be a few things that nobody has thought of that may become valuable in the future. I found that the information available on the web seemed a little overwhelming at first. By making my "lists" I was able to break down what I deemed important for my survival needs and use that as my starting point. You won't be able to find everything in one book. Good luck! The more people who prep for disaster, the less ammo I have to expend lmao
