Why Survival?

[NorthernRaider]

Sitting in a ditch in Germany during the Cold War, I asked the CO " Sir whilst we are here all kitted out with NBC gear and specialist vehicles and ready to fight the soviets in a nuclear war, What arrangments have been made to protect our families back home from nuclear weapons?"

This was the week the MOD announced proudly it had built a super bunker in Canada for the Royals and Govt to hide in along with one under London, Liverpool and Dover.

" Nothing was the COs reply, " the govt have decided its not cost effective to protect the civilian population of the UK "


That was the moment I became a survivalist and a Republican.
