I'm Currahee I was on the L&L forum and SP. I've diddled around a lot of different internet forums over the years.
Early 40s, Infantry vet, biologist by training and high school teacher.
I'm a "tactical pepper" and believe in the concept of a Jeffersonian militia.... ie friends should get out and train together, it should be fun. Beats the hell out of eating chips and watching endless football or reality TV. I'm not discounting the need for food, water preps at all. And I work on those as well... but my greatest skill is in cutting through the BS and explaining the tactical/defensive side of being prepared. I spend more time reading and learning about the other stuff.
I started really prepping about 12 years ago when I started building a family. Before that I figured an AR and Rucksack full of MREs was enough.
I've got a lot of you tube vids and a web page to help out others.
