When NASA was experimenting to find the ideal size of a team to go to distant planets they discovered that there was only one team size that worked; two people. If it were three people or more the experiment ALWAYS ended with two or more teaming up against the minority. ALWAYS! If your team were all close family members with a strong leader and no psychopaths then maybe more then two would work. Unlike the fiction real life is full of sex, jealousies, envy, anger and revenge. Could you bring a single man into your group? Can you bring a casual friend into a group of close knit relatives. Would the women in your group accept an 18 year old attractive girl? Would the alpha male of your group accept a younger alpha male? The most likely SHTF situation we face is economic. Not WW III (which really makes everything we might plan useless), not zombies but maybe civil unrest, probably some threat both at home and when you are out and about. Planning to bring a bunch of macho guys into your group because you think you will be in extended fire fights is probably suicide to you and others in your family.<br /><br />As far as the chances of survivng if you are alone I can only say google "Ishi". It isn't exactly a success story like a good fiction survival story might be but it does show you that an individual can survive, evade and live in a hostile environment. Do I advise it? NO! But it is a better choice then making a team with members who might value your property or women more then they value you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4709268009452512912.post-1731357098984775712011-11-04T23:28:26.584-06:002011-11-04T23:28:26.584-06:00Solo is a nono. If this came from a younger man, I...Solo is a nono. If this came from a younger man, I'd be suspecting some sort of Rambo dream. Based on your credentials, I'd guess you know full well you're capable of doing all the necessary tasks. But even a bad migraine could lay you up for days. If your survival team doesn't contribute much in the tactical sense they can still bring you water till you're on your feet. And, there's something to be said about protecting and providing for others as a reason to keep going, psychologically...<br /><br />Team or not:<br /><br />Holding up in a secure location is one thing. But arming the perimeter to the teeth only tells raiders you got something worth taking. If you want to be left alone you need to be invisible. Think sewers and abandoned cars. If you must go out at any point (at night mind you) probably want to grab a crutch/stick and fain a bad cough. Look like you're about to die soon anyway, and you just may be left alone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4709268009452512912.post-83034632612364446982011-11-04T19:57:02.661-06:002011-11-04T19:57:02.661-06:00When I think of someone going solo, I think of sta...When I think of someone going solo, I think of staying fast and mobile. I would think that the hope would be, in a SHTF situation, to stay low until some sort of normalcy came back to society, then join the living.<br /><br />I picture a heavily forested area with plenty of moving room and maybe several areas to hold up in...some caches along the way etc....Prepper Websitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04305544290736654747noreply@blogger.com
