When Should You Get a HAM License? NOW!!!

"When talking to preppers and emergency preparedness folks most understand that communication is a must during any emergency.

Despite the fact that they will agree this is a must, very few have a solid communication plan in place beyond having a midland radio that they treat like walkie-talkies and still trusting in their cell phone for primary communication.

Well I know I was guilty of it as well for a long time.  Found every reason never do too much more than talk about how i am “going to” or “fixin to get” that taken care of."

"On a campout, on-the-go, or in an emergency, Meals Ready to Eat (MRE) are a great way to get the nutrition and energy you need while you’re away from home. MRE’s are great because you can eat them absolutely any way you want.

MREs are pre-cooked meals making them safe to eat straight from the package—warm or cold.

But if you’re just not into eating your food cold (when you’ve got the choice), here are five ways you can heat up your MRE to satisfy your taste buds."
