Survival Depends on Preparation

Keeping gear and supplies protected from harsh conditions is crucial for survival. Use plastic to shield paper and writing materials from moisture. Always disinfect drinking water with Halozone tablets to avoid illness, especially in extreme heat where hydration is necessary. Taking prescribed medications for malaria daily is essential, as is consuming salt tablets to prevent heat exhaustion. Weapon maintenance is vital; clean firearms daily to prevent malfunction, especially in humid environments, and apply oil regularly to prevent rust. Smoking in dangerous situations heightens risk. Immediate readiness to engage in combat is paramount when alert signals are given.
