First and Foremost – if you don’t currently have a Disaster Kit, then please procure one or build one yourself. If you decide to purchase one from me or even from someone else, at least that is one less problem for the First Responders to deal with. You may even find yourself becoming part of the solution versus remaining part of the problem!

Worldwide, there are countless numbers of differing disaster situations that can strike at any time putting us all into situations that we are neither properly trained nor prepared for. Even those of us that are the best prepared and educated will suffer just the same in differing degree. You can affect just how much pain you will face by doing some simple preparation now.

Just look back over the last decade at the wildfires, tsunamis, severe storms, power outages, etc. that people on this planet have faced. Some incidents have actually hit close to home for us in the United States… Hurricane Katrina comes to mind first – a situation showed not only us, but indeed the entire world that even in the most civilized of nations that it still only takes three days for contemporary men and women to resort to primitive behavior – killing each other for basic sustenance and survival needs. Opportunistic criminals and Mother Nature came together in a perfect marriage that brought on sickness, injury, and even death to the weak or ill-prepared. The lack of clean palatable/potable water, no available shelter from the elements, lack of medicine or medical help and so on showed true human vulnerability and fragility.

Just envision at a micro-level with the Island Chain of Hawaii, what it would be like if the Tsunami that struck Ache, Indonesia recently or a perfect storm like Hurricane Katrina struck! What would be the result? Well, Waikiki would be wiped out completely and sea-level dwellers, which constitute more that half of the population on Oahu alone would be competing for scarce resources like food, shelter, fuel, medicine, and most importantly – clean water. Keep in mind that there is a huge salt-water “moat” around the Hawaiian Islands so there would be no immediate relief coming from the sea. And if there wasn’t a usable runway – then an airlift wouldn’t work either. And hoping for timely or adequate relief from the State or Federal Government in the form of National Guard and Reserves or even Active Duty forces isn’t a viable option either. They are off somewhere else right now helping out someone else in need aren’t they? Even in the best case scenario, if ships or aircraft were packed and ready to go from the Coast of California – it would still take three days or more to see the first signs of relief. What do you do in the first three days?

Ask yourself then – what have you honestly done to personally prepare yourself or your family? Sadly, most folks are still no better prepared today than yesterday and will be just as unprepared in the future to face a crisis. Disaster preparation is one of those things on the back-burner in most of our minds. Each time a “wake-up” call comes to us in the form of watching others suffer on the TV screen, we always promise to do something but never really do. Additionally, our completely eroded and still declining political situation has made the world a much less safe place than it was a decade ago.

What value do you put on preparation? Do you have a $4000 flat screen television and nothing more than a can or two of Spam and a case of bottled water stored in the garage along with a box of band-aids to face a disaster? If this just described you, then a Bowser “Bug-Out” Bag may be the perfect start for you and your family. This is a complete system that will take some of the thinking out of your preparation and will serve as a base or a lynch-pin in your overall plan. I have personally designed this survival system with select items using my experiences gained in countless military operations that required living off the land through the procurement of food, water, and shelter combined with real world operational experiences. The components in this kit are all top of the line and cutting edge and made for rugged real-world use. Simply said – this is the best (bar-none) disaster system commercially available anywhere in the world today.
