“The information you present is so important that I’m trying to do it all but just get further and further behind. This lesson came way too fast….. Thank goodness that my husband is on board and is very capable. Hope he’s close when the time comes. Thanks for all you do.”

Thanks!

David,
This is a great lesson and opened my eyes to potential areas for problems around my home. I’m really starting to think the $ paid we worth it. Pace is good for me and I do not get everything done each week but have saved all material on the computer to finish later.

I am disappointed than my county does not participate in either of the web sites Crime Reports or Spot Crime. I have obtained my county map to begin working on adding the info to help me see potential areas of trouble. Are there any other web sites that might tell me more info about crime in my area? Thanks.

Having been on local fire departments for over 30 years, I know the hazards in the area well,and the choke points also…. Having police & fire scanners on in the house also educates me as to what’s going on in the area that doesn’t make the papers…
To me, police & fire scanner radios are worth more then their weight in gold for information….
The pace of the course is fine Dave….
Thanks

Thanks 4 getting the gangs web site working David. Interesting. Thank you for your time.
Lots to digest here. Will have to review much of it later. Saved on computer.
Thanks so much. Very grateful.
Good lesson Dave. Was relatively easy for me as I do not live in the city but 9 miles out in the county. Was a “meaty” lesson requiring a lot of follow-up (which I plan on doing)and good archive information to be used in the event of…!
Thus far the pace has been fine for me. Thanks for the work you do and the information you provide.

I have to stay moderately prepared where I am, due to living right at the coast of SC and have to be ready for hurricanes big and small, and am glad to see I’m not doing too bad at prepping for survivinginplace. The crime websites did give me an area close to me to avoid at all cost; thank you for that info. I’m looking forward to each new lesson, and am learning a lot from you and the other forum members. The Thanks!
Hey David,
We are sure enjoying your course (My wife and I) the pace and resources are great as well as the amount of content. We have quite a bit of outdoors/survival experience in our personal lives and both of us have worked in situations that allowed us to improve many needed skills for this type of survival. I have (until recently) been a police officer for two state park systems and my wife is an EMT. So together we make a pretty good team. We also evaluated each others skills pretty fairly and see where we need to improve. Thanks for the great course. God Bless.

Thanks for the lessons, so far the pace is good. There is a lot of great info in the lessons. I also like the sites that you give us to check stuff out on. The hazmat site was good and you can see everything in the US. Have not checked out the crimes site yet but it is on my list of things to do. I have not been able to complete the lesson yet, but my wife and I are working on it slowly. We have a kid so it makes it kind of tuff but we will work through it. The info is invalueble when TSHTF. Thanks for all the info and the time that you have put into the lessons, keep up the good work and God Bless.
Thanks Dave, This is a very sensible lesson. Thanks for all your preparation.
