As with anything, survival depends above all on the experience acquired by practice. Train yourself to go beyond your comfort zone, where you will learn endurance, strength, agility and the ability to withstand heat, cold, thirst, hunger, and pain. The more you exercise in a safe and controlled environment, the fewer surprises and suffering you will have the day you are confronted with a real survival situation.

Henry is in deep shit.
He knows he has to get out of town before the riots degenerate into complete chaos and carnage. He knows he stayed too long, in hopes of finishing his medical exams.
Bad luck: he lives in one of the wealthy neighborhoods, and it’s clear that the police are no longer present anywhere. The bands of looters are getting together. Shots and cries can already be heard in the streets. He’s got to think quickly. He mustn’t panic. What resources are available? What is the best way to flee the neighborhood and rejoin his parents in their country home?
He puts on his walking shoes and jacket, takes a Swiss Army knife from his room, and grabs a well-sharpened kitchen knife. Oh, yes! Grandfather’s M-1 Garand rifle; he thinks he knows where to find a few .30-06 cartridges. There they are, in the bottom drawer of a cabinet. A backpack—quick, fill it up—two water bottles, cereal bars. If only he had foreseen this when the bad news started. . . STOP! No time for useless reflections. Quick, a plan. Grab the equipment; done. Shall I try to negotiate with the looters. No, that won’t work. Defend the apartment? Bad idea. Flight is the only sensible thing. Leave the apartment by the outside fire-escape, follow an alleyway west . . . How do I do that? Compass! In the big desk. Quick, quick.
Henry hears cries and fighting from the stairwell. Time to get out. Henry thinks of his late grandfather who was in the Marine Corps; he survived the assault on Iwo Jima, for heaven’s sake! What he’s going through now ain’t nothing compared to Iwo!
Let’s roll!
