    Carl was a hero. I praise his decision to hike into the African bush. That decision he made helped save the lives of his fellow colleagues. Sad Costa died a few years later. I feel he too was a hero.

    As part of the activities for the Duke of Edinburgh Award in 1997, we went on a school camping trip and got stranded for four days in what was then called Mabuasehube National Park in the Kalahari Desert, after our vehicle broke down. There were about eight of us, including our geography teacher and programme leader. Luckily, we had plenty of food and water, and our only worry was keeping wild animals away, which we successfully did with several fires.
    We always believed help would come. We kept the atmosphere jovial by singing and playing the guitar. We were rescued by the excellent BDF (Botswana Defence Force), with Lieutenant General Ian Khama leading the rescue team. Khama went on to become Botswana's president from 2008 - 2018. 😊

    One thing you need to learn from this is that, if challenges or problems come your way, you don't have to just give up and sit in it and cry, you have to work your last breath out of it till you over come it. It's better to die fighting your way out of it than to just sleep in it and die

    What were the odds of Carl, in that vast expanse of wilderness, spotting the straight line, making the right decision on which of the two ways to go and then walk directly to the hunter's hut which just happened to be occupied at that moment? I believe that Lynette's prayers are what brought them under divine protection.

    35:37 As a instructor in the Army, Fort Bliss Texas, (Desert survival)There 4 different North's, 1. magnetic north 2 True north 3 Grid North 4 Hunter's North..The storyline doesn't say if he is Left-Handed or right-handed, If your left handed you'll bend to the left
    if your right handed you'll bend to the right, They call it Hunters circle North.
    The pilot had experienced flying in the air corridor, he would have known what the heading would been before they crashed,
    A visible KRP (known reference point)
    would have helped out immensely. And knowing the Field Expedia method of making a compass, would of made a total difference,
    a very interesting subject to research just might save your life sometime.
