Soup Sandwich Survival

"Donny Boy" Franko

Description

Be it the end times, enemy attacks on the United States, cataclysmic Earth changes, nuclear events or natural disasters, the topics covered in this book will greatly assist anyone who finds their self in a survival situation. A practical guide written for those who care to prepare, protect and take responsibility for the well being of their loves ones before, during and after an emergency strikes. An amazing wealth of information packed into one book and written in a clear and concise manner for those who are serious about preparing and learning the art or field craft of survival. The material in this book is presented in a simple but very effective manner just about anyone can understand, benefit from and follow. Expertly written by a retired, combat experienced military advisor, this "how to" instruction manual will prepare you before the event and guide you during and after the event as it can be easily carried for reference in everyone's backpack. There are tasks and techniques covered in this book that will show you the next step of survival after all the basics have been covered. There are clearly written instructions on the subjects of decisive planning, communications, campsite and personal security, primitive weapons, direction finding, traps and snares, ropes and knots, field sanitation, range estimation, "go-bag" and cache' preparation, wild game field dressing and preparation, fear management and much, much more. It contains information that many want to know but might be afraid to ask. Designed for the leadership of the group, it will greatly assist those who plan, lead and instruct as the information can be covered and then delivered to the entire group. The knowledge contained in this book will provide the skills, autonomy, group dedication, self-reliance, decisiveness and confidence needed to markedly improve the chances of surviving in any emergency situation! Our history will remind us of periods of time when pandemics and starvation and even civil war occurred with many people losing their lives due to lack of knowledge and skills not lack of willpower so we should not fool ourselves into thinking that these events could not happen again. It should never be assumed that we can fall back on the use of our military or emergency personnel in disaster emergencies as they will already be over tasked with their assigned duties and those duties may not include assisting us. Simple study and preparation can make the difference between life and death and with group dedication by all Americans to learn the survival basics, we can regain our self-reliance and be confident in knowing that we can survive and conquer any "soup sandwich" survival situation thrown at us. As parents and leaders, we have a responsibility to our loved ones to know the threat, learn the basics, make a plan, train, communicate and survive! Will you be ready?

DEDICATION
It is a matter of fact that Christian leadership established this country. In the American tradition, we are to love one another, work hard and be honest. Our Forefathers warned future generations of what could happen to our freedoms should we falter in our faith and core values and not be self-reliant.
I have seen with my own eyes that this lack of faith, core values and self-reliance is, in fact, happening now. Currently, about ten percent of our military service recruits have had minimal or no experience in survival skills. It would be very unwise to fool yourself into thinking someone else will show you how or help you survive when disaster strikes. We should never assume that we can fall back on the use of our military or emergency personnel in disaster emergencies as they will already be over tasked with their required duties and those duties may not include assisting us.
I call on the men and women of our nation to realize that (if they don’t already know how) they need to find out “in a hurry” how to survive in any emergency survival situation. Our nation as a whole is individually weak in many areas of autonomy or self-reliance. These traits are not an option but a “must know”! Without basic survival “know-how” we will be in a complacent state of dependency. Individuals and groups being complacent and n
