I get that from some friends and family. They call it being paranoid, until they need tweezers to pull out a splinter while 3 miles in the woods... then I pull out my Swiss army knife, and then an extra pair of gloves. And that's on the easy end of things.

well done. When I flew medical helicopter ( medevac ) I was amazed how unprepared the med crew I inherited was. They knew nothing of after crash procedures, prep for emergency landing, prep for survival after a forced landing and procedure for evacuating and extracting survivors of our ship. They thought I was trying to scare them by talking about emergency after landing procedures, expectations , situation awareness and keeping track where populated areas were along the way if they had to pick a direction to hike after a landing.

Tailoring a kit suitable for my day to day situation, a truck driver in NJ, was difficult. I travel up and down the state, from populous and dangerous Jersey City, to the more rural pine barrens and southern shore coast. Even in your free time in NJ, you can easily go from rural towns to populous cities to dense woods to mountains in a short period of time. Staying prepped in these situations was tough, even more so with a family, but I think I have it figured out.

A simple case in point, I just recently traveled to NH. We drove there with no issue utilizing my Bro-in-laws phone for GPS directions. I drove back having never traveled any of the roads that I took back. I have always made a point to carry my tool bag with me on road trips, just to have some basic tools to maybe be able to remedy an issue. On the way back I found a good spot on the dash to prop my phone to follow the route, I had to push it upright into a tray on the dash. While doing that it somehow must have dislodged my SIM card to where my phone was unable to connect the SIM. In my tool bag I just happened to have a paperclip that I use for my work. I popped out the SIM, repositioned it and I was back in business. If not I would have bought a map somewhere. I was prepared by just thinking of bringing my tool bag with me in the first place to be able to fix my SIM issue easily in less than 2 minutes.

Mike, great info and inspiration as always! Question though. In regards to Ham radio, I may have just missed it but, are we talking RX only or TX/RX? Also, I haven’t come across this anywhere but, when everyone’s using their Baofengs and such, anything with Chinese logic chips could be just shut down (best case) or worst case, weaponized by covert aggressors, to tap comms. Even to track/relay positions to hostile forces. Love to hear a pros thoughts on this. If not, no worries brother, stay safe and keep chugging. Cheers from 30+ year veteran in sunny S.C.

Hey, Mike what happened to the S&W 38? Love the H&K p7 but don't have the bankroll for one so not a knock on it replacing the S&W but honestly when you showed the old .38 revolver as your edc in the bag it earned a lot of respect from me. It is a much more sensible choice for the bag than most modern Glock type pistol which you spoke to in this video. Totally jealous about the P7 btw.
