Yes, love the collaboration between women and men in this gun video. We need more gals to stand up for our 2A rights. Go girl!!! 💕
I really believe you found a gem in Amber. Love her stuff for families. Thank you both!!
THANK YOU......You don’t have to scare the hell out of your kids. Just be honest and straight with them. Prepare them. Train them. Kids are EXTREMELY resilient
I’m glad Amber is included to share family knowledge. She teaches a lot of the things I did with my sons when they were young. She is spot on with her tactics. My kids weren’t scared but able to be aware and logically think through their actions in situations. These lessons are so important for children and as they grow to be more self sufficient. As always, thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the shoutout! Also, those Inmarsats provide roll-over minutes, which is nice as you can bank up comms.
I did get cellulitis in Ranger School. Stopped for a map check. Took a knee on a sweet-gum tree ball (little spikey bastards). Woke the next morning with my knee twice the size of the other. Fortunately, it was last patrol day in Darby. I've had a deep hatred for those trees ever since.
We used walkie talkies all the time with our kids in campgrounds, great tool to have. Just be warned you get what you pay for. We had a pair of Cobra radios that cost more but still work to this day and we bought them 18 years ago, use them for job sites now.
More people should get into Ham radio. I have had my license for over forty years. When cell phones and the internet go down, hand held radios and repeaters will continue to work. Yaesu and Kenwood radios are the best.
Thank you Amber and Mike!
I appreciate the family preparedness info. The I literally never thought about walkies for the kids.
I rely on my 3rd gen 4runner. They're the best 4runners and I trust my and my family's lives in it
For burns we usually would cool down the burn and delicately clean with normal saline in a plastic bottle. You can soak the burn with 4x4 dressing soak in saline or spray the burn by puncturing holes in the saline bottle cap top. This can be followed after “pat” drying with neosporin, if there is no allergy, and or apply a nonstick dressing. If you do not have saline boil water for 5 minutes, cool down, then put in say a Smart water bottle. Change dressing daily. I was an ER nurse for 27 years and just retired. Treatments may have changed but that’s what we did in the ER’s where I worked.
Coming from a retired Scoutmaster, we were heavy with communication with our scouts.
I worked the fire dept where North American Rescue had their headquarters in our district. Those are some damn good guys. James Davenport, Tony Horton. Took a TECC class instructed by Mr. Davenport. World-class education straight from the battlefield. Its one thing to buy a piece of equipment and read the directions, but its another to buy a piece of equipment (CAT-5 TK) and be taught in person by a company rep that has used hundreds of them in real life. I'll carry that knowledge and medical equipment with me for life.
Another great episode. As a grandparent, I want to integrate this with my grandkids and adult children.
If your children are at public schools or ANY area away from you on a regular basis in a known place....have a escape/evasion plan and rendezvous /rally point away from that location . We use super reflective bright self clipping trail markers that I can track them w/ if they have had to vary from protocol. Initial direction was to be marked at treeline to give compass point....then I could find them . We had a middle school. ..that was in a "pinch point" locality...the protocol was to travel AWAY from main roads to a large culvert under a highway and egress to a safe zone for me to pick them up on a enduro moto that could overcome traffic issues. . We had an emergency there once..what a nightmare to get into that location to retrieve our children ... surrounded on three sides by large four lane highways. Literally one road in/out. Assess you situation, have a primary, alt, contingency.
Great video! I had a hard time getting my ex-wife on board with things of this manner when we were married. But now that the kids are grown andshe is primarily alone most of the time, she is more open to the idea of being prepared for emergencies! So I am looking into getting her signed up for self defense pistol and rifle courses. I am going to build her an AR 15 pistol that will meet her stature(frame). And a good 9mm to fit her small hands. Of course she has our sons (5) and me that live nearby for secondary backup. Even though we are divorced I feel she is still under my care or whatever you want to call it. unless she gets remarried that is. I make sure her car has stuff she needs in case of an emergency. We still have one son that is 17 that is with her but is starting to fly the coupe so to speak! He has things that keeps him busy. I would suggest to other divorced people to look out for each other if kids are involved. Because we loved that person enough to marry them and have children with. Your(our) children deserve that. Oh and by the way I recommend staying married! Men please don't be selfish and petty. Be a man and stand true to your vows to Love, honor and protect that woman! You didn't make those vows to just her, you made them to God as well! leaving is the cowards way out. Trust me on this, I chose the cowardly way and regret it everyday! I figure if God can forgive me for the stupid vile stuff I did then I can forgive ANYTHING a wife can do. I'll get off my soapbox now! Realistically this survival issue as well.
This woman is a rock star!!
A bit late on this vid but as for tourniquet use on kids and smaller framed people.
In my experience raising five kids, and now eight grandkids (and counting!), my wife and I have ALWAYS followed the "Curiosity-Killed-the-Cat" theory. In that, curious kids will naturally gravitate to stuff that you repeatedly say to them NOT TO TOUCH. It's the whole "taboo" thing. So our practice has been to take them out shooting, expose them to firearms, talk to them at the appropriate age level about the power of these tools, and of course, how dangerous they can be if misused. Since they were little, perhaps starting around 4-5 yrs, we teach them that they can always handle any SAFE firearm (unloaded, ok'd by Dad or Mom) anytime, as much as they want. All they have to do is ASK. So far, because we've made firearms almost commonplace, sort of taken the "mystique" out of the equation, we've NEVER had any incidents or accidents whatsoever. When you create that "taboo" or "mystique" surrounding an item, curious kids will want to see what all the fuss is about-the first chance they get-when YOU AREN'T HOME. My Dad had a German P-38 that he lectured me to no end to NEVER, EVER TOUCH!!! So what does a curious 13 yr old do the first chance he gets when Mom and Dad aren't home??? Yup, reaches up to the top shelf of the closet and pulls down that ol' P-38!!! All my adult kids own and shoot guns, and have gotten their spouses "converted" and are teaching their kids the same. It warms my heart watching our 5 and 6-year olds grandkids-with help from the adults-shoot an AR, M1 Carbine, etc., AND LOVING IT!
