WE GET LETTERS Hugs and Kisses -- Sticks and Stones B y : Chuck-JO HNEL
Alan D. On June 3, 2009 . (Quote) "To Chuck-JOHNEL and Nancy-TONI and JimREPHAEL (both under separate cover): I am writing one letter to each of you as the topic I want to comment on is the set of tapes concerning survival. I found the tapes very useful and enlightening. You commented that many are surprised that current events are happening now and so quickly. My surprise is that these events did not begin long before now. In the early 1990's I had the privilege of being with a group of men where we would meet once a month, summer and winter, and go on a weekend outing from Friday evening to Sunday. Each month we would concentrate on a certain subject which included first-aid, cooking, survival and of course, guns (the care, operation and handling). As I grew up on a farm I have handled guns most of my life. Anyway, we discussed many of the events anticipated which you have predicted even before I heard of you. That is why we have expected many of these events before now. I had access to some little known information as the leader of our group was an AF Special Op and another an Army Ranter. Other vets were also involved.
Concerning guns,! had an unusual opportunity to obtain a small arsenal of buns and ammo from a friend who got in trouble with the law and had to dispose of all weapons due to a felony charge. Obviously, I don't need all this weaponry just for myself, so I anticipate there will be a time where other less-armed individuals will need these items for defense and survival, The point by Jim about preplanning in the mind, about emergencies, is well put. I have practiced this for a lot of years in certain areas but was reminded that I need to expand my thinking to more varied situations. In the 10-S0-l0 situation, I fit in the top 10%. If I am not totally incapacitated, I WILL be a survivor. Of the five areas of personal characteristics, I find that I fit to some degree in each area. I would assume this to be a good thing. I envision that I am to be a source of help for many in the future trials. Thanks for putting the tape session together and I pray that they will be a real help
