Excellent site. I'm sourced from Analytic Survival's video blogs.

I got knocked out of power and basic services for 3 weeks during Hurricane Katrina and started a basic prep plan then. Trying to go pro now.

Since the Island Fortress model is out of my price range, I'm working with what I have.

I'm up to a 4 person 90 supply of food, water and medicine. Despite extensive prior use of military weapons, I'm not avid outdoorsman and I'm learning more about standard rifles and ammunition.

I've modified portions of my home for storage and reinforcement.

My plan is to upgrade my current level to include 6 Months supplies for 5 Adults and 6 Children. I have a brother in law who is part of my trusted network and he is craftsman and incredible guy who is working on preparations at his site as well.

I will post more details and lessons learned in another post.

Any suggestions, guidance or constructive criticism is welcome.

I'm a prior Infantry Enlisted/NCO/Officer.

Thanks to all

Thanks to all for the warm welcome. The amount of information on this site is staggering. My wife says prepper talk makes her 'anxious'. She likes the idea of being ready for hurricanes etc but it looks like we are in for nastier stuff than the weather.

Thanks again for all of the work that has come before me.
