National Preparedness Month
National Preparedness
Month (NPM) is an observance each September to raise awareness about the
importance of preparing for disasters and emergencies that could happen at any
time. The 2021 theme is “Prepare
to Protect. Preparing for disasters is protecting everyone you love.”
I got my start
‘Prepping’ because of the Mormon [LDS] community in AZ.
Most in this
community store up at least a year’s worth of food & survival goods…I
learned much of this concept in the Boy Scouts as a youngster and learned more
survival skills in the military. We
promoted this in earnest in 1999 when my wife and I launched the Minimalist
Group from our 38-acre farm where our monthly meetings were held.
Personally, I feel too many Americans are no longer self reliant and could use a refresher course as offered in a Boy Scout manual. [Ever notice how so many are caught with their 'pants down' whenever a national disaster happens; racing, in a panic, to the store to grab supplies...]

Top 5 Prepper Expos
Prepper conventions and survival expos are some of the best
places you can visit if you want to take your preparedness to the next level.
The exposure to other likeminded individuals alone is worth the
price of admission. You’ll learn about what other people are trying and the
philosophies they have behind their own prepping plans.

RESOURCES
When making a prepping plan, there are numerous things at the
top of the “to do'' list. And for most of us, it is unlikely that putting
together a binder of files, forms, and photos will be as high a priority as
Band-Aids, beans, and bullets. But, they should come in a close
second.
While
the exact documents each prepping family may need may vary, there are multiple
common types of information and papers that truly need to be preserved. During
or after an SHTF, you may need to prove your identity or prove that your
children actually belong to you...

I read the Bunker book also & found it highly informative as well.
Between Afghanistan, the economy, and today's social climate, history teaches us that unfortunately, things will most likely worsen. However, history also shows us that there are those, who in times of great peril, rise up to push back against the darkness...people like you give us hope!
I read the Bunker book too; good but he likes to quote anti-trump whiners [their comments made no sense] but I liked the distinctions pointed out by Mormons who look at prepping as common sense vs just doomsday scenarios.
Check out resources from 4Patriots...solar emergency radios, backup solar chargers, food & more [it's what I use & often sell]
