Visit them online today at MainMilitary.com. That's Main, like the state, Military.com. I had a dream the other night that, well, I didn't understand. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat and speaking low to me, he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free. and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money is spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Oh, sons of the Republic, arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land. Preserve our great Republic and each God given right. And pray to God to keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true. We are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each God given right we only watch him tremble too afraid to stand and fight If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Is this still the land of the free? And good this is the first hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm are quirky one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories west southwest east and uh... well it is a gentleman you're listening to us uh... liberty free radio dot for m g dot com indiana freedom talk radio dot com running with a micro station cb base stations and UltraNet Technologies east and west of the Mississippi along with Alaska Hallmark Network from the top of Maine to the bottom of Florida. From the bottom of Florida across the arc of the Gulf of Mexico headed to Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Oklahoma, big chunk of Nebraska, a whole bunch of Wyoming to include both the third, the fifth, and our friends in the recall state of Colorado along with the 13 sisters on the left side of Wyoming. waiting to the left coast where we have a great state jefferson jefferson nickels jefferson dollars and jefferson two-dollar bills remember if you use the coin in the currency keeps reinforcing jefferson jefferson jefferson which is what we want to happen right well return back to the east sweep across the plane's a leap over the burgeoning banks of the mississippi and land in the smokies slash the Blue Ridge with the restaurant crews, grandma teams, OK teams, the Ma Bell Gramma Consortium of retired telecommunications workers bring us the Golden Spike. Many hands make for light work a million petticoat junction operators, the ability to continue to function when everything else is offline. So here we are. It is a beautiful gray and wet Tuesday. it is the fourth of november it is the six-year of open favey and socialist and soviet socialist occupation of america with the k two thousand fourteen older calendar or my own crying korea crazy town calendar and most of the world calendar world well-reviewed wet anyway uh... it is uh... election day You know what that means? It's a day to vote and here's what you can do. Go to www.amalman.com or go to www.unamo.com. You can vote for the East or for the West. You can vote for the East or for the West. Remember, one way or another, there's a big difference between UNAMO and Amalman.com. The name. So, much like the election, where you have all these Parsicle characters who are Republic rats and Demikins, in this case, a much better situation, you have two different names, you have the same product, it's kind of like the election process. Except, when the stuff shows up at the door, it's yours from either location, and you'll like it. And it serves a purpose. Otherwise, going to a die-ball machine so that some peckerwood piece of communist trash can turn around and, you know, re-shift the vote anyway. What difference does that make? Well, tell you what, made 100 to 1,000 rounds of 223, 762 by 51 NATO. 762 by 39 are 40 caliber. Well, that's a pretty permanent vote there. When the time comes, pull the trigger, point, click, and I'll bet you the vote sticks when the time comes. Pop, pop, boom. So, again, www.unamo.com or you can vote for the east side of the country and go to www.amoman.com. What an election option! Today is the day to vote with your wallet. Buy more ammo to demonstrate your high confidence in the scam that's being run in America today. I would highly recommend that everybody do that. It's the best thing you can do. Spread the word. Still got plenty of time to do it tonight. and you know we part of the exit poll or what do you what do you think about what did you vote for all public about thirty nine what y'all public about thirty nine are going to come from the border are about more able to how about you no no no no you need to have total com for that com yeah com anyway we certainly do all know what's going on so what that court and let's both with our wallets now again amal man dot com got some other flavors of two to three although look pretty decent right now uh... they do have some uh... the achi two to three that just came in that something i didn't expect really to see but they did get some in there getting some of the piazza ruff or feel cheeky pick the achi piazza tomato whatever you want but i don't know about it go for a copy of all of the pronunciation for the uh... five five six ammunition or showing whatever it is whatever you think is correct i think it's right but the most important thing is that we invest with our wallet and buy more amal It'll make you feel better. A lot better. Okay, so anyway, again, the 223 ammunition, they do have some PMC battle packs, which is another thing that we've been pointing out the last couple of weeks here. Those came in and those are in the Euro battle bag type. You know, the vinyl bags where you grab it, it's got a little handle built into it. uh... and you can throw a guy two hundred rounds of ammo congratulations run two hundred rounds ammo congratulations and run or a couple of them actually i'd probably take two of those me but uh... because again minimum four hundred round combat load minimum that's you know how you look at it Again, amoman.com voting in the east. Vote for amoman.com. He's the other guy. And then there's voteforunamo.com. He's the other other guy. And they're very different from each other. One's on the west side of the country, one's on the east side of the country. Who will you vote for? And there's a hundred other people you can vote for in your local elections too. You know, you can go to your local gun shop and buy some .40 caliber. Vote for .40 caliber. Yay! Or vote for 9 millimeter. Yay! Or vote for 45 ACP. Yay! Isn't that wonderful? Your vote today, if you go to the gun shop or go to the store and make a point of telling them, oh, I'm voting. This is election day. I'm telling you exactly how much confidence I have. I'm buying a box ammo today. Vote with your wallet. Vote often. Vote as many places as you can where you can get the best price and make your vote count. There we go. Now, otherwise, a couple things. Hey, by the way, I did mention it, but I should have mentioned it a few more times. Henry might repost this for us out there on from the trenches, but one of our friends did exactly what I asked. And we have a Patriot Wood posting, just to give you an idea how it works. so take the time and go back through the scroll and finally patriot would posting that was done there on youtube i already voted thumbs up made a comment i made a point also of sharing it in all the social media that i could and got on would do another things if you all did the same thing about a will bring it up again henry re post it i can go back to the scroll actually to But we repost it for everybody. It'll be a little quicker for everyone to find and that Patriot Wood posting, well I will spread the word, but it's an example of how well you can do at producing a video with your computer. It's that simple. In fact, there we go. Patriot Wood and the video for everybody there. It's posted November 4th by DesertFox12 and I'm gonna try and... I've gotta play with my machine a little bit. I had to scroll back through. I'll get it eventually. I will... You dudes! I'll get it, Scooby. Don't worry, it's not a biff, just a win. And, uh, again... Oh, here we go. WMM... Number 1... PW. That's the title on... YouTube. WMM. Space. or number one, as in num, the numeral one, pound sign and one, space, P W. Uh, the channel is Jefferson South. Jefferson South, that's the channel on YouTube. W M M, space, pound sign, one, space, P W. W M, number one, P W. W W or W M M, number one, P W. and very well done but again guys you can do this work with your existing Windows Movie Maker program. Experiment with the quality the imagery without cleaning crisp it is take a look at the photographs take a look at the picture of the work that was done outstanding and I think that's talking about outstanding in the woods okay so for everybody again go to Jefferson South channel on YouTube and the title of the video is WMM space number one space P W and you might hear the music in the background give it a thumbs up make a comment and repeat repeat repeat I made a point of sharing that in every social media that had an account for kids and you should too So, again, Patriot Wood, if you go back to the scroll, Patriot Wood on From the Trenches World Report dot com. Also, uh, autopilot driving, excuse me, would you trust them? No. Would you trust the car to drive itself? Auto drive! Did you ever see Demolition Man? What the heck you, you know, auto drive malfunctioning. and you know you do a little jump while you turn into a member of the third turn which i could only yet so anyway uh... nothing here real quick on from the trenches will report thank you henry uh... watch hogwash the american pigtail free for limited time again go to from the trenches will report dot com activist post by uh... heather calahan You can go to www.bakersgreenacres.com, www.bakersgreenacres.com, www.bakersgreenacres.com. One of the things that I think is going on right now too, remember we're going to have the big wave attack out west in Nevada against the Bundys and other people, generally the population, and the southern part of Nevada is going to be attacked by the communist Chinese sponsored BLM. Since the BLM and other federal agencies are all running for you, working as whores for the communist Chinese, let's expect a across the board operation. Again, they're going to have to come back with this agenda 21 garbage. I don't care which one of bought and paid for prostitutes. Democrat or Republican is up there in Lansing, Michigan. These characters are all working for either the kosher mafia, food mafia out of the eastern side, which actually runs out of Toronto, but Southfield, Michigan. On the west side, it's Grand Rapids, but also Battle Creek, forgive me, Kalamazoo, which is the Ring Knocker District right there. Those two areas are the core or center for all the other problems for the rest of the state We're not supposed to know about Kalamazoo. Hell, the average person you asked for Kalamazoo, Michigan is in Michigan. Well, I don't know. You know, it's the same. It's like most we don't realize the ring knocker association with Toodalee Doo slash Toledo Each one has what are clandestine manufacturing or special facilities for the you know, the ring knockers there both in Toledo and Kalamazoo and And there's a few other places like Marshall, Michigan, where there's other activities going on the same way. For everybody out there, pay attention because it's not over. It's the next wave. They're pissed. They didn't get what they wanted in 2013, which I guess probably would have been kind of poetic for them. Yeah, they like the number 13. Oye, oye, oye, oye. That didn't work. So here we are in 1-4. That didn't work. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. So now we're going to come back with a, oh it's 2015 man, that's the magic number, I'm waiting for somebody to do that. Dude it was 2015, ku-kuk-chu, it was the real number man, oh and then they'll give you the story about the numerology and why 2015 was so much more important than 2013 and why it was saying blah blah blah blah, in reality these characters are desperately trying to plug their garbage in but they've got to try and get past people that are still thinking. And that's not happening and everybody's getting more pissed or pissed off. What would you say? Piss it or ruh-ruh by the day. And that's not working out for them either because people are looking right at them. There's no camouflage anymore from the hide with, you know, where they can conceal something. I think that's really the most critical thing to remember is like... Well, you've stripped the country of business as an industry and for the most part the ring knockers can now be blamed for exactly what's going on because their pusses are right there in front of you. Their faces are right out there. Their arrogance level is obvious. They've got a bunch of stinking short-necked pea-brained tiny weenie-royered up fools that are going to follow whatever the Chinese tell them to do and Americans can see it. So everybody's on the upswing on this as far as understanding who's going to have to be done away with and kicked on down the road. So that's a good thing. Meanwhile, the play game, I don't know what's been going on with the mock election, whatever you want to call it for the day, really don't care. Not a whole lot there of anything that's going to change significantly. In fact, it's not going to change at all. The big thing is, as we know, The Western frontier is going to get active pretty quick. They're already moving resources. We had the information on the three training sites that the Israelis are running. I would be willing to bet that there's something else going to have to do with those with the whatever scam they're going to come up with for the next animal or lizard, bird or whatever that's supposed to be the endangered thing and why we need to kill humans because Well, the endangered fill in the blank. So we haven't found that out yet, but I guarantee there's some BS propaganda tied into it. Okay. So you might want to take that into consideration too. Just something to think about there. We've got to try and track that down. There'll have to be something that they can do for the brainwashed, especially where you've got all these different eco-freak operations that hate humans that are attacking the farmers out west. and attacking the ranchers as we expected surprise but we do need everybody to pitch into ID the problem and we need to track down what the next you know fake scam is going to be what are they going to beat the gong on this is going to be the lizard lizard bird Is it going to be the famous fish snake of central Nevada that we've never seen before? Is it going to be the fox tortoise? Very fast pointy ears, but kind of like scaly all over with a really orangish shell. Yeah, you've never seen them before, but they're very rare. That's why we need to kill all humanity, because those very rare fox tortoises, the buggers have killed them all! Well, they never existed in the first place. Oh, that's okay! Oh, don't worry, it's like Wag the Dog. It's going to be just like Wag the Dog. In fact, it's what you're seeing is a big, gross version of Wag the Dog. Okay? So, let's prep for that one and act accordingly. We can track it down. We should be able to see this amongst the Eco Freak circles first. That's what we really need to be paying attention to is that you're going to see the propaganda in their circles And that's not that hard to keep track of guys remember they got to beat the gong for box Also to promote the propaganda to get everybody plugged in and then you know act accordingly do what you can to get the job done so We'll track them down, and then we'll point you'll point the light into that shadow as quickly as We can what do you say? Yeah, I think we can handle that one. So as it is here we are It is so well, let's see We're already into the first week of November. I would point out also that again with the situation developing the way that it is and With most of our people prepping for a late winter early spring campaign Cold weather gear, cold weather equipment, and wet weather gear is something y'all need to prioritize on. I'm going to tell you something right now. Gore-Tex's stupid price is outrageously expensive. Okay. Uh oh, wait a minute. Anyway, one of the things we need to be looking at with regard to logistics is trying to find a better source for wet weather gear in general. Military type ponchos guys used to be a drug in the market used to be everywhere they run every street corner so to speak there is one by every surplus operator out there uh... it isn't what it used to be uh... one of the reasons pay is that a lot of wars going on a lot of stuff has been consumed eaten up and dragged away right now all the next thing coming out for just a bit there's another wave of these are the all-star in military ode green ponchos There's a couple of them that are being called ponchos, which they are. There's a Czech poncho. It's not like the U.S. Military one you're familiar with. It's good material. It's well made. But it's more like a monk's frock. Large hood, steeple hood, OD green. But it's more of a rain coat than it is a traditional military type poncho of the rectangular type that you're familiar with, with the hole in the center and the hood. It's a good unit, but it's not as versatile. Now, the Austrian ones are in the nylon poncho configuration that most of you guys going into the Vietnam era and post Vietnam era are familiar with. Price is going to be still, I think, steep, but it's just where the world is. Remakes or copies that were made overseas have gone to stupid price. And when I say stupid price, we're talking 24, 25 dollars, 18, 19 dollars a piece. Brand new and in camouflage patterns if you're lucky. You might still be able to find them, but even those are becoming harder to get. It's not that they aren't out there in the retail end. The problem is finding them at the wholesale end. And at the retail end, the market is very narrow, very fixed, and exorbitant as far as the surplus world is concerned. Panchos were one of those things like entrenching tools that everybody thought would be there forever. The Austrian are actual military panchos. They're coming out. There's a little clutch of them being released again. It's only so many thousands. and you should see it the sportsman's guide and most of the other like cheaper than dirt sites may already be there right now uh... if you can you need at least two ponchos per person uh... if you can find a deal locally with an older surplus store where somebody got stuff laying around are check the prices pay attention in this day and age finding more of the better stuff is harder and uh... again you can get the china sport copy some of the china sport copy stuff is comparable to the last of the euro military stuff but usually it's a separate grade below and while you can get it in black car you can get it even tiger uh... they'll be stupid price uh... but the camouflage patterns are more expensive in general even the woodland uh... major surplus dot com major surplus had and i have not looked to see whether or not they have a poncho now everybody's probably going well mark what about vortex Guys, if ponchos are stupid priced now, Gore-Tex has gone up into crazy land. Okay, if you use Gore-Tex, it's going for what we used to pay for, new Gore-Tex. And that's in the surplus, and it doesn't mean we can't get it. Problem is, you're looking at 20, 30, 40 dollars a unit for stuff that, you know, it's decent, it's well made. If you've got to go that direction, go that direction. And I do recommend that if all else fails, hey, that wet weather protection is critical. You're going to be living in the field. You're going to be outside. Look at the weather out there right now. I'm looking out the window and we've got another wave of wet coming through even while I'm speaking and the sun's setting. It's getting dark out there, but it's getting dark and it's also the cloud cover's coming down and we're getting more moisture beyond even what we already got today. Not real heavy, just constant pittering. It's that fall soaking rain. If you're outside in that fall soaking rain, that will kill you. Okay, it'll be that'll do a real good job over this matter of fact dudes. So anyway real quick I'm gonna check on this www dot major Surplus dot com now the reason I'm bringing them up is only because They did have or they have had Wow, that's interesting. And why did that do? Oh, I see what they did. Www major surplus major surplus dot let's put a dot in there how that sound dot com instead of a comma Anyway, the reason for that is because they're on the west coast, right in California, they have... On the left side of the country you'll see more of the China Sport variety in terms of stuff that shows up. But what's interesting is you may find again wet weather gear ponchos there still for a little better price. They were actually more expensive by comparison two and three years ago. But with the inventory completely eaten up, That's not so much the case in that you know things are finally kind of caught up with them Let's see what they have if they have the ring gear now I do know yeah, you're looking right now milspec gi style ponchos $29 $28 forgive me milspec rubberized heavy-duty ponchos $32 a unit and they do have combo special one poncho one liner and they you know a range of Camouflages, let's see what they have or what they're offering OD, obviously black OD, coyote and ACU. They're not even offering the fleck turn or the rest the way that they were. And that's something I was pointing out to somebody the other day that the variety of patterns is disappearing. So again, while they do have the liners in black, OD, woodland camo and ACU, the other patterns, in fact, if you look at the picture right there, you'll notice that a couple of the colors are missing. even with the imagery that they're showing now sportsman's guide may have some i haven't looked to see what they've got but i would point out again you're looking at like knock for power liner and poncho combination for thirty three dollars which is not bad for a combo again these are going to be the copy they're not military but their mil spec they're serviceable enough but again look at the price what i've been talking about with regard to where things have gone in terms of even the copies now if you do have anything like that laying around in decent shape like i said hang on to it gets there in the other just isn't anymore laying around are coming out of the inventory a lot of its head into the war zone it's not uh... coming back to this neck of the woods it's heading out to where the people are you know they're actually shoot with each other That's why a lot of this stuff has dried up the way that it has now. They do have some clearance items at major surplus And I do recommend that when you get a chance always check to see what they have Available if they have any specials or clearances or anything like that no matter where you go, but I'm not seeing a whole lot in the way of specials the the other poncho that is a good option is the Swiss Alpine Flauge The biggest thing there is again whether or not they have them for the same price. Typically they're in around the $8 to $10 range now. So we've seen the price creep on those for quite some time. Wet weather gear is a priority. If all else fails, again look at some of the industrial stuff that's out there. They make it an OD green and an OD green will work just fine. The big thing is keeping the water off. You're just keeping it dry. Yeah, uh, when I was a kid, you know, in the scouts, the pond shows like it had it was real thick with a hood and it was just like a you were in a tent with a hood. Is that? Do you know what you're talking about? Well, basically they're rectangular. The one that they used to make for the US military was the 50s to 60s Vietnam era was a much heavier gauge. Halfway through Vietnam they started to come up with the tropical poncho, which is the nylon with the rubberized cover. That was to lighten up the combat load. But it was a mix. I used to try and grab all of from the government auctions all of the older style ponchos that we could in many cases that would come through brand new. The older style, the ones that were actually a heavy striated nylon, they're rubberized, they're actually more of a full plastic slash rubber but with a striation through them to reinforce them. I still have many of those in all my gear, that's what I have on my combat gear. Those are few and far between their Vietnam or pre-Vietnam era. They're part of the Type 56 gear that came out. The Vietnam era ones later are nylon with an outer rubber cover on one side, and nylon striations on the other. It's really easy. They're lighter weight by half the weight. That was a big thing, carving weight off of the combat load. They're not as durable. Mostly, the rubber has a tendency to flack off if they get old. That's why replacing them is really critical. They try to get everybody to grab all of them that you could. They're the US military spec, the Pancho's Austrian is the other direction to go because, like I said, the Austrian ones are Odi Green. They're a direct copy of the US military system. In fact, almost everything the Austrians were using here up until recently is a direct copy of our 1970s era equipment and uniforms. Even their web gear, they went to an Alice kind of system, and their equipment is pretty well made. So if you... Will it cover your pack? Will it cover your pack if you weren't? I mean, like if you got a pack on, like a 50 pound pack... Oh, that's why the poncho, that's why I was saying the poncho, yes, it covers everything. That was the advantage of the poncho. It will cover all your gear, it covers you, and keeps you relatively dry. Remember it snapped on the sides and you put your hands through the corners. That was the general cover. In fact, if you look at how they were cut, when you put the poncho on, the back is a little longer than the front panel, the way that they snap together. The reason for that was to accommodate the backpack. So, they actually allowed for the idea that you're wearing a backpack, an Alice pack or a combat recon pack of some kind. That's the advantage of the ponchos, they go over everything. Even if you had the Gore-Tex and you're running a Gore-Tex suit, I would still take and have the ponchos in the system. Now, there's a couple different reasons. Number one, I don't always carry the shelter half. We use the shelter halves, and most of my shelter halves are all In the reversible camouflage, it's kind of hard to find, but I kept cherry picking them out of the surplus. All of my tent shelter halves are like the helmet covers from the Vietnam era. They've got the oak pattern camo brown on one side and the oak camo green on the other. I'll normally carry a couple of ponchos and use those for shelter halves. Travel light freeze at night, but travel light and you pick out the right equipment, you won't freeze so much. The big thing is that even if I was wearing the Gore-Tex, you're looking at cold wet anyway, so another layer is not going to be a problem. You can open up and breathe, but like you said, the poncho covers everything. It keeps all your gear dry. It covers all the equipment. If you've got to get rid of it, it's not a big deal to drop it. I think everybody needs to remember that. We're going to be looking at... Well, we're looking at some really unique weather already this year. The solar flares have created this kind of in-between weather condition we have right now, which is still, it's fall. But I think it's going to stay this way for a little bit longer. And then we're going to drop off the ledge into cold wet real quick, like cold frozen wet real quick. So we'll see what happens. But because either way, that poncho layer, and remember you can buy the liners, I just mentioned those. The poncho liners do not have a hole in the middle. They were designed to be used as like a light sleeping bag, as a cover. So what you want to do is cut a slit in the middle that matches up with where the head hole is when you lace on the cover. And you can actually wear the poncho with the liner as a field item. And again, in motion, it's something to help keep you a little warmer. It's a hole-a-fill liner, so remember it's... It's not wool. It takes more to dry it out, but it's so lightweight that they do dry out pretty quick if they get wet. But if it's under the poncho, chances are it won't. So you're looking at another thermal air. They get good ground cloth, too. Yeah, well, yeah, always. That's the whole point. The ponchos are used for ground cloth. If you're using the shelter halves, most people don't realize that everybody was supposed to carry a couple of ponchos and a shelter half system. You take one poncho and you use it for the ground cloth and it's inside on the ground to cover the surface inside the pup tent. The other poncho, if you pay attention, the grommets that are on the ponchos, right in the middle point for the poncho line up with the pull points for the standard pup tent. You put those on top, you lace that in, you put your tension lines on that to tighten it up. And then you have your dew cover for your canvas, which nobody was ever taught to do. All of these systems were integrated systems. The poncho was designed to support the pup tent. And if you do that, you've got a Cadillac piece of housing in the field. Because you've got the ground cover, you make sure you do what you call your wet trench all the way around the tent. You dig your e-tool and dig a little trench, so you've got drainage, guys. Then you take that other poncho, after you've set up and tightened up your pup tent, you then take the other poncho, line the grommets up, take a little piece of nylon parachute cord. On the peak points you pull that out to the stake that holds the ridge pole, the front pole, front and back pole on the pup tent. And then on the corners and on the middle grommet, On the sides, you run those out with little stakes and now you've got a dew cloth and a moisture cloth that drops 90% of the moisture right off and into that slip trench you made around the position. I don't think anybody has done a video on this and it's probably something we need to break down and do because it's real simple and there's a lot of shelter halves out there. The Canva shelter half system is a good system. I don't like nylon tents. I really don't. They're very flimsy. They typically get busted up over a short period of time. And they get wet, and when they get wet, they don't hold back anything. Now, canvas, it's going to be heavier if it gets wet. I'll suffer with a little more weight. I only have to carry one if somebody carries the other. You're working as a team. And once you've got them set up, you can leave them in place, and they're pretty reliable, pretty permanent. Not forever, I mean obviously, but there's a lot of tricks that you should have learned that most of the time that nobody was taught Even though it was in the system and once they're all plugged in it works out pretty well for everybody You know, the whole system you're talking about is what, nine, ten pounds? I mean, jeez Well another thing I would point out of course you're bringing your gear into the tent You want it really where you don't want to get too warm or whatever you want your equipment to be stabilized to the weather but uh... easily we always uh... swept could sleep three people in a pop cap you know you put a person left right and still have enough room to go for some of the way down in the middle without any problem at all fact that usually i slept i usually didn't unpack much of anything could usually too many things going on so the ideas be a lay down for a little bit you throw up a ground pad down or you throw something down just like a blanket and lay down on that. You're in out of the weather, you're dry, you can sleep, you get up, you're already, again, loosen your boot laces up, but tighten everything up real quick, get back out and get to work. That is at the place just to rest. But as far as making up a nice little outpost living quarter, there's all kinds of things that can be done with a pup tent system that works really well for you. But if you don't teach anybody, they all think, man, I don't see how this works and it doesn't hold back that much. Well, the canvas still does better, I think, in general than the nylon does with wet weather. Even though it's going to get, it's going to, you know, it's cotton, you know, it's a cotton-canvas, you know, hemp combination. It's going to get wet, but it's still, because of the thickness of the material, especially with wind and air, it does a better job of holding back or holding, first of all, holding back the cold and also deflecting that wind. Just something to think about there. It doesn't mean we don't use other tents. We got tons of them. Hell, I've got a bunch of them I got for free as far as the nylon tents go. I'm not going to toss them out. We're certainly going to use them. But it's the idea that typically in the field for myself, the shelter half that you can actually make with one shelter half, guys, we were taught to make basically a one man tent. I notice that not many people really experiment, but think about it. If you have one set of poles, one set of the support poles, and you have your stakes, and you have your rope, a few other pieces of nylon cordage, you can set up your half of the shelter half, a one man, like a snail tent. The other option is you can actually put shelter halves together and make a bigger tent. There are all kinds of things. The shelter quarters are even more of an option. The shelter quarters, key word quarters not half, the Euro shelter quarters were designed so you could button them together and button together and button together and make a bigger and bigger cover if you wanted to depending on how much space you needed or what you were trying to do. Remember, most of the Euro ones are camouflage. The Norwegian, the East German, the Swiss, whatever. You don't see many of those anymore. I think the Norwegian is the last of the shelter quarters that's still out there. They want a lot more for them. They're not as cheap as they used to be. We used to get those wholesale for under $4 or so. The shelter quarters are also a poncho. Their tents were also ponchos. That was a Euro pattern, a Euro design that pretty well was standard for about 100 years with the European armies. It worked. You didn't always use it as a poncho because they had other poncho systems, but it was another wet weather item and camouflage item because typically your shelter quarter was a camouflage piece of equipment. It worked well also to use as seasonal camouflage depending on where you were and because it was canvas did a pretty good job keeping the water off you. So just something to think about. One heavy gauge, not all of them were very heavy gauge and there's again 3M products that are made to seal up canvas tents and I recommend using it. But you can use that with US pup tents the same way. But if purely a matter of what era they were made that determines how heavy they are, what gauge they are, etc. So, Mark, how heavy is your gravity go pack? I mean, if you've got to leave the house in a hurry, how heavy is that pack? About 65 to 80 pounds, depending on what I load in it. What I've got I catch five. Yeah, 80 pounds. Well, 80 pounds with everything, you've got to figure. Combat load with the house load and the fighting load, because the fighting load is separate, but the fighting load is packed up. Again, chipmunk cheeks for all the mag pouches. everything is loaded, everything is full. There are not many blank spaces. The big thing with the backpack is, again, as much as anything, all the little trinkets to keep you in the field because you're not coming back. Most people have been talking to the idea that there will always be more showing up. Really? I emphasize tools for a reason, guys. Like I said, once you get into a situation, what you carried in with you in the first wave is probably all you've got. So all those little trinket items that you're going to need to improvise, adapt, and overcome, which can be used for any number of different objectives, need to be on board. You can always drop the backpack wherever you are. And then your fighting load is doing what it always does. But the big thing is to have the tools, the fixtures, and the fittings, and everything you need because you can build it if you've got the tools, but making it from sand? And by hand, don't do it. It doesn't make it. Combination tools are especially good. I love the sawback machetes, especially the Ontario. They're not as easy to find now. But if you go to Bud-K, there's a couple of the different buccaneer types. They originally didn't put the hand guard on the machetes. Well, if you're using the saw back, the handguard on the machete is really kind of handy because if you ever slip when you use that back saw side, guys, the blade's on the top, remember? On the other hand, with the buccaneer with that handguard combined with the saw back and the blade front, you've got a mayhem weapon. You can punch somebody with it. You've got good protection for your knuckles. Remember, we don't need to do any more medical where we can help. It's a utility tool. I can chop and defoliate with one side. I can saw and assemble and build with the other. Universal tools the same way. One of the things here a few years ago, there's only one or two types left, but for a little while there, these really well built wire tools were coming out from the different militaries. The only ones left are British that I've seen. And they're not pricey, but they weren't necessarily the best made, but they were designed to collapse and become a smaller package. These handheld wire cutters, very high quality, used to be they were issued out to only certain people during operations, guys. Tools were not something you just handed out by the buckets. So remember that these were built and then were issued for specific missions, and then were retracted from being issued, and then were issued out to somebody else. The tools that we're talking about, a quality wire cutter makes all the difference in the world. With wire and wood, you can make a whole lot of things work for you. Nowadays, it would be wire, wood, and PVC pipe. You can build things. You can build fortifications. You can build antenna masks. You can build tools. You can build weapons. You can build housing. If you have just a handful of tools, you can be a whole hell of a lot more comfortable in the field. You can create anti-personnel devices because you've got the tools to cut things with and to bind things with and to hurt people with. Because that's what your plan is. You're not out there for the fun of it. You're out there to hurt somebody on the other side who thinks they're going to come and hurt you. So you take advantage of what you've got in hand and you start making things to make life miserable for them and more comfortable for you. The reason to bring up the ponchos though is because if you look, you'll find what I'm talking about pretty much to be true as far as finding anybody that's got these things out there in any good number, even the importers. I've been contacting the importers just to see what they had available. Two things, number one, very little of anything really in the inventory that they offer now. and ridiculous price by comparison. The American dollar does not have the throw weight that it had 10, 20, and 30 years ago, guys. That's reflected in why you're seeing them charge the prices that they are on the market. And it's there across the board. As far as wholesale goes, there are some items that are decent that crop up, but they're also not necessarily military application items. They're stuff that's coming in, like I said, from the, for instance, the European Civil Service. Military surplus is being eaten up because of the wars. So now they're going into the civil service stuff that we never used to see in surplus in the United States. That's why you're seeing these male, British male service clothing or Italian IRS clothing. Go ahead and do a search for Sportsman's Guide. Take a look at what I'm talking about. You never saw that in the past, guys. Why are you seeing it now? Because surplus is becoming harder to get hold of. Now, when you can see stuff on the cheap, or like I said, the clearance section on the slide, you're still getting a good price, but it's a military surplus item, that's how I would go with most everything that I can. That's actually going to determine how I would sculpt putting people, you know, putting equipment together like a 510 program nowadays. Point it out, Woodland camouflage, probably the best example. Right now, Woodland is, Woodland and OD Green are the two best ways to go for price. In many cases, it's cheaper to go with Woodland camo items, example these Croatian camouflage shirts from Sportsman's Guide. I know where they got them from. Right now they're charging to try and clear what they bought. They're charging what the regular wholesale price is for two shirts. It's like two, up to extra large shirts for $9. Well, they're brand new Woodland camo. Again, there's a lot of woodwind camo pants, there's web gear, $20 woodwind camouflage, salt vests, backpacks, everything you want in that pattern without any problems. OD Green is the other because there's a lot of OD Green Swiss and other country stuff coming out and hey that works everybody in the same gear all the equipment the same and you'll find OD Green in the nylon equipment coming out either the TA90 gear the Austrian Web Gear which by the way is a really good price and got some really good equipment that they're dumping right now and then there's the aftermarket stuff that's made for airsoft and paintball. And I'm telling you right now we have beat the snot out of that for what it is for the price especially marked down to about $20 and $10 and $5 for whole systems Yeah, it's worth picking up and putting a soldier in not a problem at all Again, you see a guy shows up bare-butt naked doesn't have Jack squat and what's he gonna say? Oh, it's pink ball stuff. Really? You didn't have anything a moment ago. Oh Yeah, oh, that's right. Yeah, what's better than standing around here of my we hanging in the wind Not only that, but the stuff will work. You know what? You're going to teach them how to make it work. That's the other half of the business. And by the way, do you want better? Well, let's go out and kill Qingli. And once we're done killing Qingli, the Chinese communist troops that are going to be on the ground, or the foreign, or the characters that are working as prostitutes for the Chinese here. strip them they strip their dead or whatever they got while they're still warm and be easier to get off and you can upgrade you might not really be too satisfied because you're gonna find out that the same stuff that you've got already is the same stuff they're wearing oh It's like wow, I'm not really upgrading no your stuff's already probably better made or just as well made but yours doesn't have blood on it How's that sound yeah the other guy can have the bloody stuff there you go see how it works But you will take the stuff out of the pockets. You know, magazines are nice, ammunition's good, food rations and stuff are okay. That you can take out of their gear, put it in yours, and we'll hand down the other stuff to the other kids that show up that also don't have anything right away. Or, at least put spares away that way too. Go ahead. Were you able to get those shoulder to the guys, Mark? We were talking a couple weeks ago. You know, you've done a deal on those shoulder passes. or I don't know if it was a shoulder sling or something. And I just wanted to have to, you know, I helped you with that a little bit. I was just wondering if you got them out okay, the guys. I forget, it was some kind of a pouch you put on your shoulder. Oh yeah, as a matter of fact, some of the guys did. Well, they're coming here. We're going to be packing that stuff up and taking it south. The debate was with what just happened with the Bundy's, whether or not we're going to be actually arming up a group, re-equipping people or going west as opposed to south. We've already committed to the south project, so I think that's where we're going to be staying focused for the moment. They just decided, in fact it was notation, it's in the colonial marine militia dot 4 mg dot com page, they are sending people out to the Bundy area to replace people that are out there already. We've been monitoring radio traffic out there since we put the radio trailer out by the Bundy's. It's in place and it can pretty well cover three full counties from its location. And those are big counties out there, by the way. Nevada ain't a small state, kids. But any military or police or other radio traffic that's popping up that's unique, we can monitor. We don't want to worry about hearing everywhere. We can at least ID the extent of traffic. Some of the stuff we can hear, some of it we can't. But we know that it's what's going on. And most important is the more that we see encrypted, that sends up more of a flare. That ID is something else is going on. We're going to be sending personnel out to replace who's there because there's a rotation that's been happening. We only need five people on the site at any given time. We're taking and sending radio people out there that have some experience, but we need to get them experience on this kind of system. Then we have a security detachment that's there, and those guys, of course, are practicing aggressive patrolling, and they're, of course, using full deployment techniques, so they're treating it as a fighting situation. Everybody's camouflaged up. All the positions are hardened and camouflaged up. We commit to so many hours per week improving the sites no matter what. In other words, better fighting positions, more of an integrated defense system, and the idea is to work on overhead camouflage and concealment because we need to have the thermal signature reduced. and we need to keep with your positions from being detected while once you start what you know once you start shooting at each other will be very difficult figure out where things are but the idea that with an lpop or radio signal communications monitoring point uh... you're not doing a whole lot of fighting you're just doing a whole lot of sitting and listening and the idea of pasty intelligence information on what so we've already prepped that area the border situation is the same problem where so i guarantee that there's a whole bunch of in the clear traffic that could easily be intercepted but i don't believe anybody has made any significant effort to do so i think we could pretty well predict the crossings for any of the foreign you know the mexican cartels anywhere along the border if we wanted to i believe they're totally sloppy no matter what they come up with their totally sloppy with their signal And because of that, they could be plugged anytime, they could be stopped anytime by just putting manpower in place and making lots of noise. But the problem is, again, government could do this too, but they're not making that effort. The border could be completely secured right now on the whole drug trade thing. Again, the invaders bringing their backpacks full of death to America could be stopped right off the bat. Ain't nobody making any great effort to do it because they're table scraping and they're stealing money left and right or they're taking bribes left and right It's all there is to it Right, you know that's that's why again like this election thing you don't hear any Republic rats talking about secure in the border Do you guys did you anybody about anybody making that a significant issue at all anywhere? Yeah, I'm just taking a lot of these clowns very very ticket to drugs themselves That's what I'm saying. That's what they're doing. It's table scraping. Now, when I talk about table scraping, they're either using it for themselves or sucking them blowing, kids, sucking them blowing, or they're picking it up and they're the other half of the drug trade. I'll guarantee it. That's why they didn't want the guys down there at the bottom of Texas. and they created that incident where they shot at the guys that were the militia people that were deployed. Those feds didn't want that interference with their profits. It has nothing to do with enforcement. It has to do with profits. For everyone that goes back across the border, if they come over here with backpacks, guys, well, how'd they get paid? Somebody's got to go back across the border with money, don't they? Did I miss something? Drugs finance everything now the hell they got freighters full like you said last night. They got freighters coming over here full. Good lord Well the freighters before were coming in full I mean the thing is like I said that 90 pound that story where there was 90 pounds guys 90 pounds of cocaine could fit into a Box that be about half the size of a 50 gallon barrel You know what I figured that was is a container probably a barrel of some kind stuffed in something and it could have been better complete setup As far as I'm concerned, that's what it sounds like because they figured out real quick who it was, who owns the business. When you see that, remember that dope dealers typically, well, 90 pounds of cocaine, it might even be pure, but that's chump change. In this market, in this industry, that's chump, I mean, it's a good chunk of money, but it's not big money. That's not even major money. I mean, for a guy who runs a shipping company, that's not gonna keep him afloat, pardon the pun. but nobody should have financed McConnell's champagne. how many mules carried how many 25 or 40 pound backpacks full of dope across the US border. Every column, yeah, every column, well think about it, let's say every column of invaders who have no problem bringing dope in, they know, I have no respect for these fools, they're all a bunch of skanks to begin with. They know when they pick that backpack up, they're bringing dope into America. And they're all here thinking, we're going to pay the coyote! I don't feel bad about that. Number one, they paid the coyote, and then they're still going to be backpacking dope into America. They know exactly what they are doing. They're hoping it will kill one of your kids. Think about it. And so then they bring them back. There are 50 people in, say, a column. They come across the border and they drop that backpack. I guarantee that between any one of those columns, there's about three to five hundred pounds of dope that just came in. That's what I'm saying, times how many columns last night that came across the border into the United States. So that 90 pounds was on that freighter with chump change. Seriously, think about it. But anyway, the whole point is one way or another it's coming in, but it's mostly coming in on foot. Why bother to skip walking across the border? If you lose one, don't worry, there were 24 other bags in the cross. Anyway, we are at the top. We're going to go to break here for a minute. God bless the Republic. That's a new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire's on the run. We're on the march today at night. Hurrah. Moving back a little bit. It is night time. Look at how dark it is out there, guys. Plus we got some dampness, some glow clouds, wet. Oh my goodness. Moving back just a little bit here. Second hour of the Intel report coming up. It's Tuesday. The sound of the revolution.
