Gents, if you’re not already, you need to be training. Not just in the gym, not just the range, but in the field. Get into the woods and train in your local area. Determine bug out or bug in locations, and multiple routes to each. Have a kit set up so you can leave at a moment’s notice. Cache extra gear near your bug out locations if they’re secure enough. Practice the necessary skills that you'll need in the future, foraging, shelter building, fishing, hunting --that is the best way to learn them.

This summer has been a wild ride, and I think it’s just gonna get worse from here.
