September 30, 2020 - "When Disaster Strikes: What to Put in Your Medication Go Bag" The West Coast wildfires are a good reminder that everyone should prepare this potentially lifesaving kit. A well-stocked medication go bag can be used to soothe a cut or burn—or to save your life during a hurricane, flood, fire, or other emergency.  Read more

September 30, 2020 - "Back to the Commandments of Firearm Safety" Remington Firearms once published what they referred to as the Ten Commandments relating to Firearm Safety. As a responsible survivalist we should all bear in mind these important safety precautions and have them permanently engraved within our minds any time we pick up our weapons. I consider these rules so important that I have decided to elaborate on them in this article with the hope that these conventions will governor all our actions associated with the use of firearms. Read more

September 30, 2020 - "Get Your Medication Prior to an Emergency Evacuation" As survivalist we must be ready for every situation whether we are in complete control of our health or not. Many of us may be on daily medications but when we have to depart and evacuate an area, we have to do it then - not later. This makes management of our medications even more important than ever before. I hope that the following tips will assist you in this task. Read more

September 29, 2020 - "Self Defense Against Sexual Assault" Watch any TV show about criminals and the people who catch them for long enough, and you’ll inevitably see an episode that begins like this: A lone woman out for a jog early in the morning, or drunkenly walking to her car after a night at a club, is suddenly not alone. She may not know it — she might have headphones on or be fiddling with her phone — but we, the viewers, see her stalker appear. He — burly and indistinct, maybe wearing a ski mask or hoodie — slinks out from behind a tree or a parked car and creeps up behind her, weapon in hand. She might notice him just in time for a cut-off scream, or the scene might just fade to black. In film, we see sexual assault coming from miles or minutes away. Read more

We are always looking for guest articles so pick up that pen and write.

September 29, 2020 - "Power Outage Survival Kit" When it's black out it is definitely black out. I often think why it is that whenever I happen to lose power it occurs on the darkest of nights with no moonlight what-so-ever? Well all that shows is the necessity of having a well-equipped power outage Survival kit. Read more

September 29, 2020 - "Homemade Laundry Soap" Are you seeking a practical means of allowing your weekly budget to breathe a little easier? Does it appear that you simply cannot save a little extra from one paycheck to another after purchasing all your household necessities? If this is your case then perhaps you can preserve a few dollars by way of manufacturing your own laundry soap. Read more

September 28, 2020 - "If the Terrorists Attack Your Town" While you sit contentedly watching your beloved TV shows this evening stop or a instant to contemplate the prospect of a terrorist attack within your town. Do you assume your city or town is ready? Are you yourself ready? Read more

September 28, 2020 - "Storage of Your Drinking Water in an Emergency" Most survivalists if solicited as to the primary item which they would store up on for an emergency it has to be water. You should always plan for at least one gallon of water per day per person. With this requirement for fresh drinking water in an emergency you should have some idea as to what you can store that water in. Read more

September 27, 2020 - "Security Tools" Here is a valuable security tool you can make at home. It never hurts to be prepared. This is sure to stop invading vehicles in their tracks.

September 27, 2020 - "Wilderness Survival Foods" When you become stranded or lost in the middle of the woods it is an encouraging thought that simply by looking around you can easily discover a vast multitude of foods. As a survivalist it is our responsibility to ourselves and to our families to be able to recognize and find these value food sources should we need them. Read more

September 27, 2020 - "Emergency Storage Quantities for Fuel Related Items" Just about everyone stores candles for emergencies however very few people really know how many to store up on. To judge the time it takes for a candle to melt you must consider its diameter as well as the length. A candle which is ¾ of an inch in diameter and 4 inches long will burn for approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes, while one which is 7/8 of an inch but the same length will burn for 5 hours. The two-inch diameters will maintain a light for approximately 7 hours per inch. Read more

September 26, 2020 - "Bug out Bag for Your Bug out Vehicle" You have your BOB, your wife has her BOB and the children each have their own bug out bag so what is left? Let's take a moment and consider a BOB for your bug out vehicle. Read more

September 26, 2020 - "A Good Portable Wire Antenna" When dealing with emergency communications there is one simple item that you really must have and that is a good communications antenna. Many survivalists have asked if there is such a thing as a simple antenna made specifically for shortwave listening. The main concern here is one, which could be transported in a backpack and rigged up in only a couple of minutes. The basic principle here is the option of stringing it up quickly between several trees. Read more

September 26, 2020 - "Quick Down and Dirty Prepping" I often hear people complaining that they don't have much money to invest in emergency prepping or they will say I simply do not have enough time to stock up on all the items I would need in the event that the balloon goes up. In as few of words as possible this is a lot of bunk. In all reality you do not need to be rich to stock up and survival a 30-day ordeal safely. Read more

September 25, 2020 - "Winter Storm Safety Checklist" It is never to early to start preparing for the winter month. Here is a winter storm safety checklist provided compliments  of the American Red Cross. Read more

September 24, 2020 - "A 72 Hour Kit" When planning emergency survival kits one of the more important ones that you can put together are the 72-hour kits. These emergency preparedness packages are frequently referred to as the first step towards become prepared for any sort of emergency. Read more

September 24, 2020 - "Stockpile Your Gasoline for Emergencies" There can be no doubt in anyone's mind the value of retaining a good stockpile of gasoline when the SHTF. This action could very well put you one step up on the ladder to survival. During emergency conditions your generators, automobiles and trucks will require this essential fuel in order to function. In all reality, the very core of your survival will hinge upon possessing a viable supply of gasoline when needed. The bad part of this scenario is that gasoline does not normally store well for an extended period of time. Unlike food which we can reliably store for up to 20 to 30 years, gasoline does not offer us this beneficial option. This presents us with the dilemma of how to suitably store our gasoline supplies for long term storage. Read more

September 21, 2020 - "Wiping You Know What Without Toilet Paper" In every survivalist mind we have the following question sitting and waiting an answer however in most cases the individual is too embarrassed to openly ask the question. I will save everyone the red face of mortification and bring the topic out into the open at this time. When preparing for emergency situations people are often curious as to what they would have to do about toilet paper usage when the infrastructure declines and possibly remains permanently disabled. Read more

September 21, 2020 - "Adequate Water Storage in Emergencies" ately my wife and I have been giving serious thought to our emergency water supply. Like most people our preparations in that area are far from adequate and would not last us for any sort of extended emergency period. We currently have several bottles of water in both gallon and individual size but that is totally unacceptable as far as I am concerned. Our immediate goals are to establish no less than 110-gallon storage capacity. Perhaps at some later date that also will be expanded. Read more

September 21, 2020 - "Are Your Children Prepared for Bad Times?" When dangerous and appalling times approach, they are generally complex enough for adults but can you imagine how they develop for young children? Sure, your children may be doing well with the usual reading, writing and arithmetic however the "three R's" by themselves will not get your children through life if and when the SHTF. They will need to develop skills such as critical leadership, multitasking, thinking, and above all teamwork. Only by mastering these social skills will your children be resilience and able to handle anything that life tosses their way. Read more

September 20, 2020 - "Using Code Words" In the future when the balloon goes up it always helps to be able to catch aggressors or invaders by surprise when necessary. I look at the situation as if it is either them or me. I would rather catch them napping then they in turn discover my family and I unprepared. Plain text language would often reveal your intentions to any evil doer that may want your supplies or even worse to harm your loved ones. In place of that my family and I have devised a series of code words which indicate certain actions that should be accomplished immediately. Read more

September 20, 2020 - "How Far Would You Go?" When we consider any major disaster scenario where we would need to get home from where we work to protect our family, we encounter many options which enter the picture. We start to think "A-Team Tactics" when we are hard pressed to come up with ideas. My question to my readers is just how far would you go to get home? Read more

September 20, 2020 - "Survival Hint" Not sure if everyone knew this or not. But to see if you need to change your filter in your Berky water filter machine, just add a few drops of food coloring. If the water comes out clear you're still good.

September 19, 2020 - "Growing plums from a stone pit" I have not seen too many fresh plums in the grocery stores these days. I do not know if they are hard to come by, or just not as desirable as they used to be. I recently visited the Produce Junction in Dover, and discovered they currently are selling plums. I immediately purchased a small bag of these cherished fruits, and took them home. After eating the first one, I saved the pit in the hopes of growing my own plum trees. Read more

September 19, 2020 - "The Survival Inheritance Foods" Our long running joke in our family is that my three children will inherit a vast supply of non-perishable emergency foods. We never have to worry about throwing food away, or wasting it even after its "use by" date has expired. Our food stockpile has been accumulating for a number of years, and is ready for any sort of emergency that comes our way. Most of it is composed of consumables which never spoil or go bad. In many cases the shelf life of our stored foods is in excess of 20 to 30 years or more. Since they are properly stored, I would venture to say that our food supplies will outlive my wife and I. Read more

September 19, 2020 - "We Can Not Rely Upon the Government in a Crisis" When you pick up the morning newspaper, or switch on your favorite news channel on the television, you are continually bombarded with negative aspects of our country. You see how the economy is being downgraded, you make note of the high unemployment rate, you readily witness homes being lost as the banks foreclose on them, and hear of the general civil unrest taking place here in America. This tends to sound alarms within certain groups of people - one faction being the growing cluster of "preppers" around the nation. Read more

September 18, 2020 - "Pellet Guns and Children" When a child grows up some of their fondest memories stem from the various events and activities they did with their parents. You can readily create one of these heirloom experiences for your child by merely taking them for a day of exciting air rifle hunting. There is plenty of small game available to hunt, and at the same time it will provide an evening meal for the entire family. Read more

September 18, 2020 - "How Important Is It to Be Prepared?" People frequently use the excuse that they simply do not have the necessary funds within their budget to regularly stock up on supplies in the event of an emergency. This may perhaps be true however let me throw this situation on you for a moment, and see what your response would be. Read more

September 18, 2020 - "On the Topic of Snakebites" Wandering around in the woods has its own variety of hazards according to the season of the year as well as the location. When considering snakes, you won't find a lot running loose in the winter months here in Delaware, however, if you bug out to your retreat say in Arizona you will likely encounter the creatures at any time of the year. Read more

September 15, 2020 - "Emergency Meds When Needed" Whenever we discuss the possibility of the balloon eventually going up, one of the foremost topics of conversation borders upon the medical subject of antibiotics. It will not be easy to locate trained medical professionals at that time let alone the necessary medicines that might be needed. Read more

September 15, 2020 - "Coastal Retreat Security" I was sitting here thinking that living near the ocean or along the seaboard has certain advantages in regards to the available food supply. There is always an abundance of food to be found within the ocean so starvation is not an option in this case. Read more

September 15, 2020 - "Looking for a Cow for Your Homestead" My friend Wayne and I were discussing livestock over a few rounds of coffee the other evening and he suggested the possibility of raising a few cows. Since my mini-farm is only three acres, I thought that the idea of a cow was a bit of ridiculous type of thought and laughed at the idea. Wayne went on to explain that the ideal cow for a small farm or homestead would be the Dexter bovine. Read more

September 14, 2020 - "Motivating a Young Person in Survival" Have you ever wondered what would be the best way to get a younger person such as a teenager involved in your survival efforts? Well I think I may have discovered an excellent way to accomplish that task for you. This year I have been signing up my thirteen-year-old grandson for various hunter safety courses with the state of Delaware. I am a firm believer that children should be properly instructed in the safe use of firearms at a young age. The age that is best for your children will better be determined by you since only you know how mature your children are and if they are ready for weapons use. Children who are deemed old enough to handle a firearm responsibly should not only receive training in the safe use of the weapon but also in how to behave properly at a shooting range. Read more

September 14, 2020 - "Mannerism during a Survival Situation" During an emergency situation there are certain rules which you should consider.

September 14, 2020 - "How to Survive an Angry Mob when in Your Vehicle" There is little doubt that you have seen what people in the United States and elsewhere are facing in response to political upheaval, partisanship and the aiding, abetting and empowerment of subversive groups: Out of control protests, mass looting, pandemonium, rioting and arson- the first pavers on the path to destruction. Mobs are ruling the streets in several American cities and elsewhere in the world. Read more

September 14, 2020 - "5 Things to Do When Martial Law is Declared" Martial law is a solution of last resort. It occurs when local law enforcement authorities are overwhelmed by any occurrence or combination of disastrous events, whether natural or manmade. Read more

September 13, 2020 - "How Older Americans Should Prepare for Fire, Hurricanes, Other Emergencies" Important items that might not make typical lists. Water. Nonperishable food. A personal first-aid kit. A flashlight and battery-powered radio. You've probably heard about these and other basics for an emergency, but some other items are particularly important if you're 50 or older. Read more

September 13, 2020 - "Survival Hint" I always tell people to think about long term storage, and only buy sale items, never ever buy at everyday prices. If chicken is on sale for 49 cents a lb. go buy several lbs. Sam's club may have pork center at 2.49 lb. so when it goes to 1.68-1.98, I buy 4 large packs, and cut it how I want them. Things like fish, shrimp, lobster, I don't stock up too much on the freezer part, but I do on dehydrated. Dehydrated foods properly stored will last up to 30 years. Can goods from the grocery store can last up to 20 years, yes I know about the dates, but that's what they say. If you see rust or a bulge you'll know to throw it away. With any extra money as income tax or stimulus check, I will stock up. Pasta and rice is a good storage food. Properly stored it will last for years. It doesn't take allot of money or time when you are interested in long time storage. A case of 6 # 10 cans of pasta sealed for long term storage cost us about 16.00.. Until you open that can you got it for 30 years. I always keep at least 3 years food in my food storage. There is really no reason why you can't maintain at least a years food for your family, 20.00 a week you wont miss. Dunkin donuts wont be there when you lose your job and need food for the kids. Be selfish for your family. Now its time for me to buy 50 lbs of ground beef and dehydrate it so I never run out.. Happy canning and dehydrating.

September 13, 2020 - "Door Security" It often will take only a single kick to force open a residential door. After spending multiple hours exploring the web in search of an improved lock system to prevent this from occurring, I found it almost impossible to locate anything to remedy the situation. The kind of lock I was seeking was one that you could "hardening" for your entry into the home and make it difficult if not impossible for a criminal to obtain entry. I wanted something solid as opposed to the standard dead-bolt currently in use. Most entry products on the market today can easily be kicked in. Read more.

September 13, 2020 - "Remember When" How many of you can remember those times as a teenager when your life was much simpler than it is today? A time frame when you were younger but less cautious than you are these days. Think back to the times when we often had our eyes on the chance for some good clean exciting fun which most kids today fail to grasp even when presented with the opportunity to experience such an event. Read more

September 12, 2020 - "Avoid at all Cost" I recently examined some of the Walking Dead reruns found on the television and I observed that in a world where there were so many diverse survival groups, that not all of them were friendly or willing to lend a hand to others. Numerous groups were viewed as detrimental to the health and safety of the Walking Dead heroes. Thinking back to our present situations, I deemed that similar conditions would apply to us even without the relentless threat of zombies. What this imparts to me is that some of our present survivalist groups could actually trigger more harm than good in an emergency situation. In these cases, it would behoove the prepper or survivalist to be proficient at recognizing these splinter groups for the damage they could ultimately do. Read more

September 12, 2020 - "Fish Medications for your First Aid Kit" Every Prepper and survivalist have a first aid kit in their automobile or in their RV in anticipation of emergencies which may be encounter when traveling however one should also have such a kit in their home.

We have a better feeling for how our nation will respond to a massive emergency. Unprepared Americans have proven their priorities. They are out to get all the water and toilet paper on the market! Did you know that you can make your own homemade DIY toilet paper? Read more

September 11, 2020 - "Today is September 11, how many people have forgotten?

September 11, 2020 - "Freezing Excess Cabbage the Right Way" ccasionally good deals come along and it becomes desirable to grab up a lot of a certain vegetable. This was the case with cabbage. However, let’s face it no matter how much you like cabbage enough is enough. Just the same when you are afforded the opportunity to find cabbage for ten cents per pound you want to store up as much as you can. Unfortunately, if left alone the cabbage would go bad in a short period of time. Read more

September 11, 2020 - "The Elderly Need Help Also in Emergencies" During emergency situations it is vital that the elderly members of our neighborhood and community are adequately considered. Far too often they are overlooked and ultimately end up on the losing end of the events. It is not unusual that during periods of crisis these people’s lives are completely disrupted and, in some cases, they even lose their lives. Read more
 

September 10, 2020 - "Homemade Cough Drops" Being sick during normal periods of peace can really get a person down but imagine being ill during a time of major national crisis. Nothing can be worse than coughing continuously and having it raise havoc with your throat. Unfortunately, in the event of an infrastructure failure you cannot simply rush to your nearest drug store and purchase something that would sooth your throat. In that case we have provided you with the next best thing - how to make your own cough drops in the comfort of your home. I would seriously suggest that you make several batches before the balloon goes up so that you are familiar with the technique and the procedures for creating this valuable medical necessity. Read more

The prime dehydrator used by the majority of serious preppers would undoubtedly be the Excalibur. However, they are not the only game in town as there are many other fine machines on the market today. Read more

September 10, 2020 - "Survival Hint" - When completing an emergency survival kit you might wish to take one of those orange, inexpensive match holders with you stuffed with some fine steel wool. On the outside of it you can hold a couple of penlight flashlight batteries using wire twisted tightly around them to secure them to the holder. In an emergency when you need to start a fire quickly merely pull some of the steel wool out and attach one off the batteries to it with the wire. Presto, you have a quick fire started.

September 9, 2020 - "Camping Equipment for Emergencies" When asked by a new prepper where they could purchase their emergency survival gear I frequently direct their attention to one of our great camping supply stores in my area. Most camping equipment can for all intents and purposes double as emergency supplies if and when the situation is encountered. Read more

September 9, 2020 - "Storm Shelters for the Masses" I have been detecting some ghastly weather facing many segments of our nation, especially in the mid-west states and their below freezing temperatures or the southern portion with its widespread development of hazardous tornadoes. To make matters even worse we witness these weather phenomena coming in multiples. Instead of one tornado we frequently see two and then three, sometimes even more. Instead of a single snow storm effecting one state we see an umbrella storm covering most of the nation. Researchers are discovering these conditions are now taking place in regions which had previously not supported tornado activity or major snow storms in the least. Read more

September 9, 2020 - "Salem Witch Trials as They Relate to Preppers" When selecting a topic for today's discussion I decided to choose the subject of the Salem Witch Trials and the active persecution of those women who chose to live outside the norms of the society at that time. Gee people, does that sound a lot like survivalist and preppers? Perhaps we are the next group of people to be persecuted. As we approach this subject, we must remember that the original goal of the Puritans as they flocked to the New World was to establish a location where they could readily worship as they pleased. These are people who left the Church of England in pursuit of better religious guarantees. King James I was determined to rid his country of the puritans even to the extent of instilling the death penalty for them. Wow this is sounding more and more like us and a situation that could develop in the future for preppers. Read more

September 8, 2020 - "Starting a Food Storage Program" A prepper I know recently confided in me as to their confusion of what to store up on for a potential emergency. Their major concern was the great changes that we are seeing in our weather across the country. They stated that if the conditions get too drastic the supply trucks will not be able to get to the local grocery stores and as a result the shelves will remain vacant. This is rightfully a valid concern and I was glad that at least the consideration had prompted a desire to stock up on food supplies. Read more

September 8, 2020 - "Recruit Members for Your Survival Group" Prior to organizing your survival group, you must give careful thought to establishing a viable platform from which others can judge the value of your group. After you have completed this phase of your organization you will want to advertise what your plans are and seek out similar minded individuals to follow your course of actions. Typical of this method is by use of a web site or a blog. Read here

September 8, 2020 - "Hurricane Preps" With the hurricane season kicking off this month, we are reminded that they are unpredictable and having the possibility of traveling up the eastern seaboard. I thought it would be a good time to take a break from our normal house conditioning and concentrate for a moment on hurricane preparations. Being a prepper and survivalist, I refuse to take any unnecessary chance with my family's lives and plan accordingly. Read more

September 7, 2020 - "Quantum Apocalypse" September’s disaster movie is entitled Quantum Apocalypse. This movie is about a massive comet on a collision course with planet Earth. Now, the only thing standing between humanity and certain destruction is a small team of dedicated scientists with precious few resources and little time to formulate a concrete defense strategy.

September 7, 2020 - "Expiration Dates of Canned Foods" One of the most frequent questions often asked by preppers who have recently begun their food storage program is how long specific foods will last before going bad. Although many companies list expiration dates for their products, I generally have found these to be more of a CYA than anything else. Usually the corporation would rather err on the side of safety than risk a legal entanglement. I personally do not place much value in these dates for I have eaten canned vegetables that had expiration dates 5 years in the past. Read more

September 7, 2020 - "Are You Too Complacent with Hurricanes?" Are you troubled about a hurricane striking your region of the nation?

Please be advised that after ten years on Facebook, I will be phasing out the Delmarva Survival Training Group page. This measure was prompt as a result of difference in opinion between me, and the socialistic Facebook owner. My thoughts, and the restrictive policies by this social media are in conflict. All the great survival information will now be exclusive located here.

September 6, 2020 - "Surviving Being Buried Alive" Let's be very realistic here at the very beginning of our article. In all probability if you are buried alive chances are, you will likely die. Sounds cruel and heartless to put it that way, but there is simply no sugar coating which could be put on it. In view of this fact, I will attempt to provide you with a possible means of escape. Read more

September 6, 2020 - "Survival Kitchen and Cooking Equipment" When preparing for an upcoming survival training exercise people tend to pack up the first aid kit, the various bug out bags, and a host of other nice to have, and necessities, however, the one thing they usually do not dwell upon too much is the cooking equipment and supplies that will be needed in the field. This usually proves to be one of the leading mistakes logged into their exercise journals. Read more

September 6, 2020 - "Dot Dash Dot Dash Morse Code for Emergencies" Survivalists and various survival groups are always interested in ways to communicate with each other in the event of an emergency. This poses a particular problem in the case of EMP pulse issues. For those who do not know EMP is electrical pulse generated by nuclear explosions. They tend to destroy and communications gear, which is not protected. The only means other than long distances between the explosion and the equipment is through the use of what is known as Faraday cages. Faraday cages are grids of wire which is grounded and thus sends the waves right to the ground. Read more

September 5, 2020 - "Bugging Out with a Battery Booster Pack" One of the most useful devices that I have chanced upon has been the battery booster packs. This is an ideal item for any survivalist to keep in their bug out vehicle. The power packages can be purchased through any of the department stores such as Wal-Mart's or just about any auto parts supplier. I found an exceptionally good one online at all-cordless. This unit it not only a battery booster pack but also a compressor and an emergency work light. Read more

September 5, 2020 - "Escape from a Death Camp" With all the exposure years ago, which was generated regarding John Demjanjuk's and his deportation to Germany, I have resolved myself to write this article with a survivalist slant to it. Mr. Demjanjuk was scheduled to stand trial for the suspected allegation of accessory to the murder involving 29,000 Jews at the Sobibor death camp. After three decades of litigation the assumed Nazi guard finally stood trial for his crimes. He was however never convicted since he died before his trial was over. Here are a few important thoughts which come to my mind when I consider this situation and possible similar scenarios that could happen to us here in America. Read more

September  4, 2020 - "Making the Civil War Hardtack" Hardtack is actually a variety of biscuits, composed of flour, salt, and water. It exemplifies an inexpensive resource towards creating a long-lasting food. The name is derived from the British slang word "tack", suggesting food, although, it has been described by a host of diverse names over the years, and in assorted locations. Read more

September 4, 2020 - "Important Documents for Emergency Conditions" You never know just when you will be required to evacuate a particular location due to emergency conditions. As a survivalist it is your responsibility to ensure that you are prepared for any sort of emergency that may occur, therefore having all your important information in one location is of prime importance. Read more

September 4, 2020 - "Surviving in a Post Cell Phone Free Era" With an excess of over 153 million cell phones operating in our nation today, it is awkward to imagine life without them. From the moment we awaken in the morning, until the time we close our eyes in the evening, our complete daily schedule revolves around the use of these small, cellular marvels. At least one time per day any individual will either receive a call or a text message, or make an outgoing transmission. It is a challenging task these days to locate someone who does not have a cell phone.
