This is not meant to be a product review or suggestion. More of just making people aware of options.

yes, I know he is also trying to sell his services here but I agree with the "free points" he is making and I do feel his products have helped me personally.

I suck at putting things into words and also do not enjoy selling things so I would encourage you all to do your own research and maybe give his free trial a go. If it works for you great if not hopefully it gave you some starting points and ideas to get something going. I do not agree with everything he puts out but most of it is better than anything I could come up with and I appreciate the in depth analysis and different view points. I believe many of us think all this will be way easier after the event or easy to pickup and adapt. Personally this was a rude awakening for me. Information is plentiful and cheap right now. It can be overwhelming but I feel if we do the work now bits at a time this could give many an advantage.

I encourage you all to have a quick read and if you are not please add "gathering local intel" skillset in some form or another.
Do the best you can with what you got.

We should seriously consider relocating to more favorable political terrain. We ought to be building community. We ought to be understanding our human terrain. We ought to be building networks and projecting influence.

And we ought to be gathering local intelligence on threats so we can anticipate future conditions.

A few years ago, when "Samuel Culper" the author of Forward Observer, had another site called "Guerrilla America" and decided to start experimenting with the intelligence e-courses with the "culper institute" I participated in one of the free courses he gave.

I'm extremely happy with the work he had done with the course, its like the cliff notes for intelligence, with a lot of good tips on how to apply all that military knowledge to you AO tailored for preppers or III percenters.
For sure that made me realize of many blind spots I had and even motivated me to create the INT DB, you can see that at: http://apx808.blogspot.com/p/intdb-intelligence-database.html

Added to that, he seems to be a really good guy, I wanted to buy one of his books but as he didn't supported international sales, he decided to email me a free copy.

If you have a few extra bucks, I would suggest you guys to chip in and see how his material evolved, he also has his youtube channel that you can check at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSqrUtY5pAE86yDVCk4OOnw

Forward Observer is a great outfit that deserves our support.
Every day, men who will follow orders to kill you, exercise. Do you?

Awesome work and checking it out now as I like having all the critical stuff printed out/on hand I always felt a digital option to make life easier would be ideal.

Glad to see folks that understand the value of all of this for sure.

I have subscriptions to his weekly services and I also have his book SHTF Intelligence and his Area Study course. I really like his material.
Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight: My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

Psalm 144:1-2
