Real Experiences

[Mortblanc]

All those wars are patriotic efforts only at the level of the common soldier or citizen. They feed us that pap to keep us supporting the effort.

In the old days they were a bit more honest, they split the pillage and spoils right down to the level of the private soldier. Every man knew what his percentage of the take was going to be.

The study of conflict, wars and their results and causes are directly related to prepping.

In the course of human history many of the SHTF situations have been due to wars.

Ask any of your old folks that survived the blitz, transport to the countryside, mandated use of their farms, conscription into the service or labor force, training for the expected German invasion.

Studying reality of the past makes crisis a bit more predictable.
