well constructed piece. long, but made a very good follow on explanation. ALWAYS...,its not what you carry, its what you apply to a scenario, gear/kit makes it easier to succeed ,but when all else fails, its how you adapt the principles. the 6 P's is good but if IT catches you unawares, its all about how you adapt. you dont have to come out of it smelling of roses, just come out of it in on ,or two pieces. then get to casualty asap

Hey Taurus,

Very good to hear from you.

Difficult survival situations like the one you are now exposed to, do have the benefit of clarifying the mind and allow us to focus on what is truly important.

Experience is the best teacher; "Thank You" for sharing your hard earned lessons with us.

Stay safe, come home soon, and from Canada we appreciate your service.

Mike

Don't forget that plain old dumb luck seems to get a lot of people out of a lot of bad situations. Of course, bad luck can affect the best prepared, too.
