This is protection and willingness to fight or handle any of the above scenarios. The other hat is of assisting survival providing basics of shelter, water and food for of all in ones group. Both will need training for the new way of life in a primitive environment. Recommend regular all hands emergency drills to help train in on protection. None in your group should be the first to pull the trigger no matter how good the shot. None to verbally start a fight. Talk and avoid conflict if you can at all cost. Protection and defense with strength and no offensive actions to start anything. Takes time and training for younger generation to understand that no battle is fought with out losses. Losses are non-replaceable in a one way primitive environment after a pole shift. Battles should be avoided with strength to not submit to suppressive influences. In truth it is better to be dead than work for a STS leader as would happen if the group were taken over by such. ------------------- Subject: Strategies of survival after PS * Stationary (well hidden, semi visible, visible and on the main flows) * protect on place to the death * leave it at sign of danger * Roving * No destination * One or more stashes of hidden supplies roving between each
