Pros and Cons of military training for preppers

[Skean Dhude]

Personally,i think the exmilitary will have many advantages in a SHTF scenario. Their sills and experience are more aligned with that scenario. Civilians, like me, have to do it ourselves and we can't practise as much as we need to because we don't have the time nor have the trainers.

They have experience of working in teams that we don't have after all we can't exactly build team work up with our families. Of course they don't have that experience either but when working with other soldiers they can integrate better thn civilians.

Plus military staff have picked up several valuable skill sets, medical being just one of them. Civilians have a much more limited subset but they can take it much much further becoming experts in areas that we need.

Military will be better placed to handle an event but non military will be better when society starts to return.
