Somehow the first post in this thread got jumbled when I hit send, so I'll try again. This is a thread of tips for anyone going to help with this disaster in Texas, based on my experience during Helene recovery. I will answer questions as quickly as possible and add posts as I…
2. Unless you are a trained/certified SAR professional, do not expect to conduct SAR. Most support from civilians will be logistics, so plan to bring supplies in and move them around to homes, shelters, and points of distribution (PODs). Leave rescue operations to the pros.
Tactical Tailor milsurp PRC-153 radio pouches. Almost useless for holding radios, but great for miscellaneous kit modifications.
Sunday afternoon flak run between church services. 35lbs, 3.4 miles, 43:03. Not my best pace but not terrible considering it's 94 degrees and 75% humidity.

Back in 2023 my Marine Corps buddies and I were using a skyraider to drop water balloons on each other's training patrols. As of last year (I think) the Marine Corps has FPV attack drone units. Glad the army is catching up.
I’m not gonna lie Ive just been reading my bible and listening to Christian music lately. Haven’t watched TV much at all; and my only internet intake atp is this app cuz of the homies. My spirits been much more calm this way. And I’ve been getting closer to God than ever before.…
The only appropriate response to CCP propaganda.
You think you know China? 🇨🇳❓🤷 If you’ve never lived here, you don’t. Full stop! I live in China and every time I go back to Australia, the place I still call home, I feel it in my bones: things are getting harder. More expensive. More uncertain. Groceries through the roof.…
This is excellent. This Marine could have lost his cool and put hands on the guy, but instead he yanks the keys so bozo can't maneuver his car to block the convoy further and yeets the keys into the treeline. Go fish motherfucker. Excellent judgement using minimal force to…
Dude tossed his keys into the trees lol. Fucking savage

I gotta day. I must be more naive than I ever thought possible. I always trusted that if my family was in trouble and needed to police and fire to come save us it would happen. Now I know that when it hits the fan, we are most likely on our own. How is it possible that we are…
