The Decline and fall of Private Education

June 25, 2009 - "The Decline and fall of Private Education" By Chuck Norris. There's something the U.S. government doesn't want you to know.

Survival Kit for My Wife and Children after I Die

June 24, 2009 - "Survival Kit for My Wife and Children after I Die" By Joseph Parish. Not being a man of considerable wealth I still would like to leave my wife and children something of great value when I pass on. I can not leave them a vast and luxurious mansion for I haven’t the necessary funds for which to purchase one. I can’t leave then all new cars or attractive bank accounts for I am not rich enough for that act either. Click here

The Obamacare Horror Story You Won't Hear

June 23, 2009 - "The Obamacare Horror Story You Won't Hear" by Michelle Malkin. The White House, Democrats and MoveOn liberals are spreading health care sob stories to sell a government takeover. But there's one health care policy nightmare you won't hear the Obamas hyping. It's a tale of poor minority patient-dumping in Chicago -- with first lady Michelle Obama's fingerprints all over it.

The Flu Concerns - Panic or not?

June 22, 2009 - "The Flu Concern – Panic or not?" By Joseph Parish. Here in America as well as the rest of the world we are now getting very concerned and in some cases beginning to panic over the swine flu which had its beginnings in Mexico. I do not wish to add to this panic however recently the WHO has raised the level of preparedness to that of 6 from its previous 5. What this amounts to is that we are now in a full pandemic. Even at this serious of a level we should not overreact but rather become more prepared then we previously were. Click here

Give them Weapons

June 21, 2009 - "Give them weapons" By Joseph Parish. I sit here and read the daily newspaper and watch the evening news on the television and wonder what we are doing wrong. With the current political unrest which is occurring in Iran perhaps we should revert to the dominant policies that were employed by our government in the 60’s. Click here

Bring it on

June 19, 2009 - "Bring it on!" By Joseph Parish. Just another reminder of the Seaford Riverfest. Are you knowledgeable enough to survive an emergency situation? When was the last time that Delmarva area had major hurricanes with its damaging winds and torrential flooding? Would you know what to do in the event of a hurricane? How would you prepare for a possible violent storm? How would you keep your family members safe if a flood were to hit our area? Would you be able to help your neighbors in the event of an emergency situation? Click here

Minimal Retreat Requirements

June 19, 2009 - "Minimal Retreat Requirements" By Joseph Parish. When we are in the process of bugging out to our retreat do we really need a spacious home with all the luxuries that we are used to? After all modern inventions tend to use vast sums of energy in order to run properly. Click here

Is there a mole living next door to you?

June 18, 2009 - "Is there a mole living next door to you?" By Joseph Parish. Generally the common man has no idea as to what a mole is.

To the Bonny Eagle High School Administration

June 17, 2009 - "To the Bonny Eagle High School Administration" by Joseph Parish. I read with interest at first and then I became a bit irritated regarding the decision by the schools administrators to withhold a student’s diploma merely because he “Blew a Kiss to his mother”. My wife and I raised three boys who are now adults and they were very much devoted to their mother. Even to this day the love flows freely between my sons and my wife. Click here

Swine Flu in Mexico from U.S. Ex-Pat’s Perspective

She sent me a note today about what’s happening in Mexico and I thought it was worth sharing: Click here

Not the proper time for taxing people

June 16, 2009 - "Not the proper time for taxing people" By Joseph Parish. It wasn’t that long ago during the election process that many of our politicians flat out declared that they had no intentions of increasing taxes or of causing additional undo expense on the already overburdened taxpayer. These are the same politicians ranging from the highest seat in our government to those at the city and country level that are having an about face at this time. Click here

Is He in Our Best Interest?

June 11, 2009 - I have recently begun a new bolg entitled "Is He in Our Best Interest?" This blog centeres around one man in partiaular - Obama. We have a man here that has been elected as the leader of a great country. Unfortunately I feel his major purpose is our downfall. He has managed to move our nation so far into debt that we will never in the next decade be able to pull even the slightest out of the hole. Our purpose is to try an enlighten our fellow Americans as to this mans deceit and contempt for my country.

Correct Behavior During Missile and Rocket Fire

June 11, 2009 - "Correct Behavior During Missile and Rocket Fire" On the eve of the Gulf War, missiles and rockets became a real and present threat. Many countries had to cope with the fact that the war had moved from the front lines to the hinterland because of the launchings of long-range missiles. As a result, the Home Front Command formulated in writing the sequence of actions for correct behavior during conventional missile fire. In view of the current wind of changes in America it may be to our benefit to study some of Israel's procedures. Click here

A True Story

June 10, 2009 - "A True Story" - Delmarva Survival Training salutes this grounded HERO as well as Col. Rosensteel.

Luke AFB is west of Phoenix and is rapidly being surrounded by civilization that complains about the noise from the base and its planes, forgetting that it was there long before they were. A certain lieutenant colonel at Luke AFB deserves a big pat on the back. Apparently, an individual who lives somewhere near Luke AFB wrote the local paper complaining about a group of F-16s that disturbed his/her day at the mall.

When that individual read the response from a Luke AFB officer, it must Have stung quite a bit.

The complaint:

Question of the day for Luke Air Force Base:

Whom do we thank for the morning air show? Last Wednesday, at precisely 9:11 AM, a tight formation of four F-16 jets made a low pass over Arrowhead Mall, continuing west over Bell Road at approximately 500 feet. Imagine our good fortune! Do the Tom Cruise-wannabes feel we need this wake-up call, or were they trying to impress the cashiers at Mervyns early bird special?

Any response would be appreciated.

The response:

Regarding 'A wake-up call from Luke's jets' On June 15, at precisely 9:12 A.M.., a perfectly timed four- ship fly by of F-1 6s from the 63rd Fighter Squadron at Luke Air Force Base flew over the grave of Capt. Jeremy Fresques. Capt Fresques was an Air Force officer who was previously stationed at Luke Air Force Base and was killed in Iraq on May 30, Memorial Day.

At 9 a. m. on June 15, his family and friends gathered at Sunland Memorial Park in Sun City to mourn the loss of a husband, son and friend. Based on the letter writer's recount of the fly by, and because of the jet noise, I'm sure you didn't hear the 21-gun salute, the playing of taps, or my words to the widow and parents of Capt. Fresquesas I gave them their son's flag on behalf of the President of the United States and all those veterans and servicemen and women who understand the sacrifices they have endured..

A four-ship fly by is a display of respect the Air Force gives to those who give their lives in defense of freedom. We are professional aviators and take our jobs seriously, and on June 15 what the letter writer witnessed was four officers lining up to pay their ultimate respects.

The letter writer asks, 'Whom do we thank for the morning air show? The 56th Fighter Wing will make the call for you, and forward your thanks to the widow and parents of Capt Fresques, and thank them for you, for it was in their honor that my pilots flew the most honorable formation of their lives.

Lt. Col. Grant L. Rosensteel, Jr.

Would Chrysler and GM like to sell anyone the Brooklyn Bridge?

June 9, 2009 - "Would Chrysler and GM like to sell anyone the Brooklyn Bridge?" By Joseph Parish. Well ladies and gentlemen right from the horses mouth they state that cutting such a large amount of dealerships is their key to survival but you know I look at that as a bunch of malarkey. In my eyes this is nothing more then a ploy to force the American government to anti-up additional funds for the CEO’s to deposit in their retirement funds. Click here

Internet on the Go

June 8, 2009 - "Internet on the go" By Joseph Parish. When I am traveling I always like to be able to keep tabs on the goings on around the nation via the internet. Unfortunately as I travel along the highway and stop at one of the highly advertised WIFI Hotspots I generally find that they are useless. Often times they are so heavily password protected that I don’t even understand why the various states or agencies even bother to offer them. I was discussing this problem with my brother and he provided me with some very useful information on getting on the internet while traveling. Click here

Surviving Terrorism on the home front

June 7, 2009 - "Surviving Terrorism on the Home Front" By Joseph Parish. Whenever an emergency situation seems to strike a particular area it also seems to bring out the worse of the population as well. Within a very short time frame you will hear rumors of looting, rapes and murders taking place between not just strangers but amongst neighbors as well. Every crisis situation America has had reveals the same trademarks of indecency experienced by people when they realize that law enforcement personnel are either too busy to tend to them or they simply no longer exist.

The Prisoner Dilemma

June 6, 2009 - "The prisoner dilemma" By Joseph Parish. Imagine if you will that the balloon has finally gone up and people are quickly scurrying around aimlessly with no major plan what so ever. The highways are rapidly being overloaded with potential travelers looking to relocate somewhere for a temporary stay until the dust clears and they feel it is safe to return to their homes. Police are rarely seen and public services are no where to be found. As one witnesses these events unfold we would have to wonder if anything could possibly get worse. I hate to do so but I am the bearer of bad tidings at this point and would like to bring you the worse case scenario. Click here

June 6, 1944

June 6, 2009 - "June 6, 1944" - On June 6, 1944, the Allies landed on the beaches of Normandy to begin the invasion of Europe and to push Germany out of France and the other occupied territories. An unprecedented number of soldiers, sailors, boats, ships, guns, planes and paratroopers left England to face the heavily armed and well fortified Germans. Many brave men lost their lives in this attempt on the morning of June 6, known as D-Day, but the Allied troops kept landing on the Norman beaches for several days following. Delmarva Survival Training web site and its associated blogs salutes these brave men that were involved.

Retreat Admittance Rules

June 5, 2009 - "Retreat Admittance Rules" By Joseph Parish. Since you are the person responsible for establishing your retreat it only seems logical that you should establish a few ground rules for any visitors that you may perhaps invite in during an emergency situation. Under normal circumstances a leader is usually chosen by age, experience in survival techniques and the supplies that they have accumulated. Click here

Sorry

June 5, 2009 - "Sorry" - I apologize for the lack of posts but while helping my grandson with his homework we managed to install a virus on the computer. Within only a few moments it took over the computer and the result was the need to install a completely new operating system. Once I had the system up and running again I had to catch up on my writing for my paying clients.

Horse Power as Transportation

May 28, 2009 - "Horse Power as Transportation" By Joseph Parish. Transportation is important in any survival plans. There may come a time when leaving your immediate area could be the difference between living and dying. Possibly your BOV just will not do the trick. Perhaps the roads are out due to adverse weather or the number of people who have the same idea has impacted your ability to depart on public highways. In either case it is important to have alternate plans to leave the area and get to your established retreat. Click here

Wake me up Please

May 27, 2009 - "Wake me up Please" By Joseph Parish. I obviously must have dozed off and need someone to pinch me so that I would wake up. I simply can not understand the current trend of our government in trying to resolve our economic problems. Click here

Martial Arts Are About Survival

May 24, 2009 - "Martial Arts Are About Survival " By Kevin Brett . Here’s a shocker for you … martial arts are about survival. Yep, that’s right. The purpose of martial arts is to have the skill and knowledge to be able to do in the bad guy and still make it home in time to walk the dog. Martial arts are not some trendy type of workout designed to impress the ladies as you tell them about the tournaments or trophies you’ve won. While it certainly is an awesome total-body workout and a great way to get in shape many students really give little thought to its ultimate purpose; survival. Click here

Emergency supply Sheds

Apocalypse Type Survival Plans

May 21, 2009 - "Apocalypse Type Survival Plans" By Joseph Parish. You can easily find that some survivalist have no sort of survival plan what so ever. I recently spoke with several that are in this frame of mind. They readily state that there are several reasons behind their mad thinking but the most predominant is that they claim to be one of those people who would least likely be able to survive in any sort of apocalyptic crisis.

Federal budget cuts and the Swine flu problem

May 20, 2009 - "Federal budget cuts and the Swine flu problem" By Joseph Parish. There is no getting around the idea that our economy is hurting badly. Not only are the normal households trying to cut expenses and balance their budgets but the federal government is actively seeking ways to cut their costs as well. Many federally sponsored programs are on the verge of losing all or some of their urgently needed funding as our government tries desperately to sort out this financial nightmare. Click here

We have tried to include several simple steps that just about any family can take to prepare for the swine flu should it arrive in your area. We live in an age where distance is no obstacle for traveling around the globe. You can catch a quick flight from Mexico to Barcelona and still be there in time to have an evening meal. This is good under normal circumstances however in the last several weeks this shortness of distance has proven to be a major headache. Click here

You got it right Mr. Stephen King

May 18, 2009 - You got it right Mr. Stephen King!" By Joseph Parish. I am confident that there is just about no one in the western world who has not heard of Stephen King. Being an avid collector of Stephen King’s books I have managed to amass every first edition that was published including several with both a European and American version. I have always considered “The Stand” to be Mr. King’s best work so far. He stylishly managed to merge the unexpected and unusual with a genuine possibility for a climatic episode. It so happens that perchance Stephen was foreseeing in his imagination of this novel for it is highly possible that we are presently in the same state of affairs as the characters portrayed within his book. Here is a fictional piece that I recently wrote. It should be taken with a grain of salt. Click here

The Difinition of survival food

May 17, 2009 - "The Definition of Survival Food" By Joseph Parish.

I continually relate how this kit should contain certain essential emergency supplies as well as a selection of survival foods. Click here

The ultimate Fire Safety Device

May 16, 2009 - "The ultimate fire safety device" By Joseph Parish. When evaluating the likelihood of installing fire escape ladders you are presented with two viable choices. You can install permanent fire escape steps to the outside of your home which has certain disadvantages. I would caution you greatly on this decision. Permanent steps are a sure invitation for burglars and others who may mean to harm you. In addition the initial cost is considerably more then using the portable rope ladder. The rope version is probably your best bet but you will have to instruct those who will use it in its proper operation. Click here

Survivalists and Fear

May 14, 2009 - "Survivalists and Fear" By Joseph Parish. Nearly everyone at sometime or other has experienced the sensation of fear. Fear is normal for any living thing to experience and acts as a danger threshold for our body. Human bodies are frail and often times the owners of those bodies fail to comprehend the limits that Mother Nature has imposed upon us but fear tends to balance this out and warn us of impending perils.

Survival Group Organization

May 13, 2009 - “Survival Group Organization” The old saying that there is safety in numbers is just as valid today as it ever has been.

We want useful people who truly desires to not only survive but to help contribute to our community resolves. If you are interested in joining such a group please send me an email with your name, location and a means of verbally contacting you to joseph.parish@survival-training.info

Locust can save your life

May 12, 2009 - "Locust can save your life" By Joseph Parish. In 2004 Israel experienced a severe incursion of locust which reached biblical magnitudes.

The locust was promptly approved for human applications and several recipe books were composed instructing the public on how to prepare these creatures for the dinner table. Click here

Survivalists 6th Sense

May 11, 2009 - "Survivalists 6th sense" By Joseph Parish. Our ancestors survived violent times by using their intuition and what many of them classified as “gut feelings”. Regrettably over the years we have been taught to reason in a rational and systematic manner and to suppress any initiate feelings that may surface. These same feelings that we restrain could possibly save our lives in an emergency. Click here

Is there a walkie talkie in your survival kit?

May 9, 2009 - "Is there a walkie talkie in your survival kit?" By Joseph Parish. We all can remember those times in our youthful days when we would have an inexpensive set of walkie talkies and try to speak back and forth with a friend several houses down the street. If you notice I said try for most of the time the walkie talkies that we had available were scarcely sufficient to get from one room to another in our home. This provided a very nasty taste in my mouth towards these electronic devices for many years afterwards. Click here

How to eat Scorpions for Survival

May 7, 2009 - "How to Eat Scorpions for Survival" Eat scorpions to survive. The bad news--that just sounds nasty.
