*PREPPERISMS: The following list is by no means meant to be an exhaustive list of Prepper knowledge, just inspiration.* *"MORE YOU KNOW, LESS YOU NEED"* Skills are more valuable than stuff. So seek to acquire as many practical skills & knowledge as is available because they can't be easily lost, stolen or broken. Another way to look at it is "the more you know the _lighter_ your load". (Look up unfamiliar terms listed below) *"TWO is ONE & ONE is NONE"* Because stuff gets lost, broken, stolen, so have backups to your backups of essentials like 2 knives, 2 lighters, etc. *"RULE of 3"* You can die after 3 seconds of indecision during a fatal threat (predetermine reasonable losses) 3 minutes without air (practice freediving) 3 hours of exposure to extreme weather (practice hydrotherapy to enhance body thermo-regulation) 3 days without water (practice economy of movement & water fasting) 3 weeks without food (practice fasting) 3 months without a long term plan (because seasons change) 3 years without a partner/team (screen members now) 3 decades without reproduction (new generation is necessary) *FOUR SELF-DEFENSE* EVASION (head-on-a-swivel; become a "Grayman") PERSUASION (humble negotiation; See Negotiation in "SEVEN HEAVEN SKILLS" below) DARKSIDE (without warning execute extreme violence on their eyes, throat, ears, groin, knees, feet; resilience & tenacity can outstrip strength & speed) WEAPON (firearms may be easy but it may be wise to consider a concealable range weapon with low maintenance & not dependent on manufactured ammo, such as a baseball bat, adjustable walking staff/cane, crowbar, bullwhip, slingshot, etc) *FIVE to SURTHRIVE!* True, we should all be prepared to survive without energy/electricity or public water. But creating energy & water off-grid means more than just surviving, but it's thriving! SOLAR POWER SYSTEM: solar panels, battery bank, inverter WIND GENERATOR: wind turbine, battery bank, inverter. HANDCRANK GENERATOR: gear ratio allows just one person to turn a handle & generate power. COMBO GENERATOR: generator that combines as many of the sources mentioned above. DEHUMIDIFIER: can pull water right out of the air! PROs: Solar & Wind power can be increased by adding more panels, turbines, or batteries. Handcrank can also be hooked up to a bicycle & is never dependent on the weather but can generate electricity 24/7. Dehumidifier (large free standing room model) can provide upto 8 gallons of water per day (depending on humidity level in your area) even in a tiny little apartment. CONs: No sun or wind, or human fatigue may limit power. Dehumidifiers are useless without electricity & if the air is contaminated be prepared to filter the water before drinking. Inevitably things will require maintenance & repair so mechanical/electrical/electronic skills will be valuable. *SIX SHIELDED SHELTER* _"Watchout With Wetty, Windy, Warmy, Wiggly, Wicky & Widow-makers!"_ Build a shelter where it's high & dry above "wetty" during rain, but close to a "wetty" source to stay hydrated; where "windy" is blocked when it's cold, but allow "windy" when hot; where fire wood keeps you "warmy" when cold, but shaded from "warmy" when hot; where you're off the ground away from "wiggly" critters & off a "wicky" cold ground; & not under "widow-maker" dead trees/limbs that could fall on you.

NO! Despite the fact that sheltering-in-place is optimum, we never know when we may be forced to bug-out, so it's "Better To Have It & Not Need It, Than Need It & Not Have It". Next, double up on equipment because, "Two is One & One is None". 6TH: 6 months mixed more water, food, etc 7TH: Self-Sustainable Sustenance, food production (study & practice gardening/small animal farming [chickens, meat rabbits, etc]) 8TH: Priority Faith to pray for wisdom & humility to answer "If I only had enough time/money to acquire just one more thing/skill before a collapse what would it be?" *_The beginner should just strive to survive without electricity.

Get with your local police department. From what I hear you’ll be a usual patrol officer then you can swap over to swat. Also some swat medics are tasked from the fire department. Best advice is to ask local jurisdiction everywhere is a little different

[@mamneo2]

Hello, how have your plans turned out until now? I would recommend you to get an EMT or Paramedic degree, take the TCCC course and maybe certify yourself as an instructor. Then you could join a police agency, study for becoming a police officer, serve 3 years usually and apply for SWAT. As you see, it is not a short path, but this plan, with some luck and dedication can put a foot of yours at the door of a lot of SWAT teams.

Weight is relative to conditioning as well, if you are conditioned to the equipment added on your vest it shouldn't be that much of a hindrance, if you are not used to running your equipment then that's when it becomes a problem.

[@juststeve8251]

Interesting, but do you eat cereal while wearing it?

[@andremartinez5307]

The police department in my city designed the vest setup for our active shooter protection, as a firefighter. For some reason they set all of our medical gear in a backpack that is clipped to the back of the MTV plate carrier. The reasoning is that us firefighters are supposed to move in buddy teams with officers, and try to remove patients from the scene. However in my experience, situations like these never go as they plan that they do, so I think that attaching it to our back is a really piss poor tactic. What are your thoughts sir?

It's a good idea to maybe have some sterile saline for minor cuts/eye injuries or irritations. The amount of water you would need for larger wounds though would not be feasible to carry.

Question from a foreigner here, what is it all about US emergency personnel, mainly police, using military-grade gear with camouflage patterns, heavy armor, and so on? Is all of that really necessary in an emergency situation? Comparing the states with other European emergency services (which I am more familiar with) it all seems too militarized and centred into the "Tactical Swat team level" kind of thing. Also, being an unarmed paramedic, wouldn't it be a better idea having clear signs of that, like a red cross or visible clear markers that show that you are indeed a medical team instead of a "soldier" seems like. Sorry if any questions come as rude or obvious but truly I don't see the point in all of that

[@tophergauruder3647]

#1 I think most of it comes down to the fact that multicam is easy to make out, ergo the swat team is easy to make out. #2 in places like here in Colorado not all swat team work is in urban Environments so there is some practicality to multicam. #3 what you call military grade is just the most common style of body armor. and heavy armor isn’t really used by the military at all, they run light.
