I have quite a few books about survival but they are usually too big to take anywhere. And I find that I work on my skills better when I have a manual handy on the road. Said that I'm looking for something small, that can fit in the big cargo pocket. It can be fat as long as it is kept at less than 5 by 7 form (about the size of infantry handbook you get in basic)at... I have the SAS manuals that are broken into parts (desert, winter) but would like to have something all together.

In the other news... I passed my midterm skills exam yesterday and next monday I have a written exam... Almost half way there. Keep yer fingers crossed.
