Who Would You Want To Survive With?

Yourself
and Your Team:

What
special skills and background do you have? The people on your team?

These
include medical, construction, problem solving, military, the list is basically
about coping with a mild emergency that isn’t life-threatening. The key is to
know what you can and can’t do, and what those around you can and can’t do.
Think back to the last emergency experienced—what was the reaction? The answer
to this will give a heads up to how one will react in the next emergency. There
is no right or wrong answer, but awareness helps.

These
skills include medical, military, gardening, hunting, survival training and
experience, pilot, boat operation, camping, weapons, cooking, land navigation,
swimming, communication (personal and technical) construction, problem solving,
fire starting, knot tying, the list goes on and on. Under Mod/Ex we’ll talk
about team building. Think back to the last crisis encountered. What was the
instinctual reaction? Some people can react well others panic. This is a
reality that has to be factored into any scenario.
