alot of his stuff are common sense, but its all very useful and though common, wouldn't have thought about it ourselves.

Yes, it is all common sense, but I still packed one for my little girl, she is strong and I've taught her well, but still, she may forget something in a crisis and it doesn't hurt to have one. I still have a old copy of the Soldiers Common field skills book, it is full of stuff and a condensed version of a survival guide in my bag. Reading helps me keep focused, your brain is focusing on the material and not how bad it really is. lol, Myrrph, I do some of my best contemplating with a book and the toilet (I know way to much info there, but it does help focus). Two things I learned from operations using the old 130 to Africa, bring a book and bring a small 4 dollar pillow. Book serves as good reading, as I said calms me down, and also causes my eye lids to fall below the horizon. Hence second valuable tool a pillow, I was always refreshed. My commander told me that in his years of military, I was the only guy who could stretch out on a hard cargo deck and snore from A point to B point. I use to remind him that I wasn't the one dragging when we got into the third day of "no sleep". Also, I can tell you when on FEX or in the SWA how valuable books can be as a reliable source of T.P. Note: Always use the first pages, so you don't ruin the ending of your book. Take care Myrrph
