The Aftermath of a STHF event is usually as bad as the disaster itself.  Continuing my series on threat assessment, I discuss the loss of services such as water, food, first aid, protection, power,rescue and more.  Are you prepared for what happens then?

Highlights:

  • Myth busting:  An attack from 200 yards away.
  • Dogs for security in rural homesteads.
  • Security in the country vs. the city.
  • Consequences of no services available.
  • No water.
  • No food.
  • No medical help.
  • Loss of power.
  • What if you are on well water?
  • Disinfecting your well.
  • Storing foods that don’t need cooking.
  • Flashlights.
  • Crank radios.
