like cannons or they went to the naval, you know, the coastal naval defense forces. So all kinds of fascinating things that were done and, you know, that were effective, contrary to what everybody thinks. We actually did have an effective, integrated, and highly refined militia force out there. It's just when you have a bunch of corporate whores trying to create a commercial expeditionary force to steal stuff from somebody else, you need a professional military for that, and look what you got. But is that a militia? Yeah. Yeah. Well, we're at the top. Oh my goodness. We spoke over guys. Everybody out there. We're going to go to break. It is the top of the hour. We got to stay a little closer to the time block there. God bless the public. The New World Order. Chapter day, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. And here in the march, both day and night. Wherever the fighting is here, there's always a thousand other places here. where you can strike. And remember, you hunt them harder than the enemy thinks. They're hunting you. Because everybody 24 hours a day can be given equal opportunity to die on time. We're going to break. We'll be back right here. A little bit of true radio. It is Thursday. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is our of the Intelligence Report. I'm our currently... One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters. Both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. Northwest. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. libertytreeradio.org. And we're on satellite. We'll say hi to all our merchant radio operators out there. Beware. Know where the lifeboats are and know where the bad guys might be. Pay attention 24-7. Tag, you might be it. And the Israelis will backstab us in so many different ways to try and orchestrate a conflict. You are in risk. Nonstop if you're in the bad waters. So beware, we're also in a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. It's been Thursday all day. It is the 9th of May. It is the 16th year of open obvious and in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 2024 old earth cap old earth calendar. I'll get that right. 2024 Battle for the Republic, the Dance of Swords. What a day. It's been a busy day. And although I can get as much done as I wanted, I got some critical parts I needed. Had to go to more than a few places. Everybody's out of everything nowadays. And everybody says they reordered, but I don't think so. I have a long memory. And every time I've gone out to try and find certain things, I notice that They're just never returned. They never come back. You know what I mean? Especially in critical parts. This is why like I told you buy spares, buy spares, collect spares, look for spares that other people are getting rid of and hang on to them and put them with the equipment where they need to be. It's especially- That little tag on the shelf stays there for about two months. and then one day you come back and everything on the shelf is moved down and there's something else on the end and that piece is gone forever. What's really cute is I even had a person who actually the guy's been there forever he said well I thought I ordered them and he even went over and looked in the office he goes well I did order them but they're just not showing up and it's like that's not good as we know. So, again, not a surprise. In fact, he even said, well, if we can't find it here, here's where you go. We don't have it, go here. And he gave me a location, and that was the final location I went to when I got what I needed. Well, Ed, I think they only had two or three, four, five pieces left in the little box they had there when they went through it, so, hmm. And this means that again, many of the fasteners, connectors, and parts and pieces that are foldable, malleable, or are detachable, you should have spares. I've been going to auctions here, as I've told you for quite some time, and there's some phenomenal tool auctions. Now, the stuff I grab is the stuff nobody wants, but the stuff that nobody wants is the stuff that I want. Which includes parts drawers multiple, you know tiny tidbit parts drawers full of parts full of everything nuts bolt screws Keepers keyways, you name it retainer pins Etc and I want more Because yes, yeah, I could right now work on something and he goes well You probably don't have it and I would say nope, you're wrong I probably do have it because what I have is probably about a dozen different collections of parts inventory from 12 different estates or mechanics or individuals and it's the same old story. When you work on stuff, electronics, mechanicals, it doesn't make any difference. You save up pieces because you know that you can, you know, improvise, adapt and overcome if you've got it. But if you don't have anything, it's your second vapors real quick. And especially you get tired when you're very last leg of doing something and that one thing you needed just wasn't there. We gotta wait till Monday because that's the time when Schmidlaps has opened up. We'll be there at 8 o'clock when the door's open and we'll get it and then we'll be done. On the other hand, two days earlier, you know, Saturday, could have walked in and, you know, could be right there, pull her off the drawer, pop it in, we're finished. This thing is done and it's leaving the yard. It's leaving the shop, the garage, it's going out. You want to be able to do that and especially as things continue to develop the way that they are. As is pointed out by our caller yesterday, saving up metal, I don't, there's nothing that I scrap unless it's oxidized. It's got to be so oxidized that it's absolutely useless. And then it goes into the scrap to be sold. But otherwise, I have plastic oddments, I have metal oddments, I have, well, steel, copper, and aluminum oddments. Why? Because my dad did teach me how, and I have developed a skill because of other people that taught me how to make things. So if I don't have it, but if I have this, this, this, and this widget, or even a similar widget, I can make the widget work, okay? But also raw materials. So I don't have raw materials. I can't bend or fold or drill or change the angle of whatever and improvise. So I've got to have materials on hand. You need to be thinking this way. The other thing I also was talking about and I can't emphasize enough is a micro or small tool system set up. Get yourself a tackle box or a utility box from somebody's yard sale or whatever, a resale shop. and start collecting micro files, you know, small tools, snips, benders, needle nose, everything you can in the jeweler grade or just above jeweler grade, small tool. Because that's the area that most people are missing. Yeah, you can make it work with a big pair of pliers and you can be crude and rude, but if you have the proper tools for such a little expense. And it's quite easy. Between that and I mentioned before, the China support companies, Teemo is the big thing right now. There's a lot of the odds and ends items that I normally wouldn't have had except for only $1 or $3 because I wait until I go through the scroll and find the one that's on cheapest markdown. And that's the one I buy the one of. I don't need 10 of. I have not done. I have not done Teemo. But for some reason, I was going through the email folder this morning. spamming all the stuff that shows up 10 and 20 at a time. And I saw a Teemu thing and I'm like, these items are under 99 cents now. And I went and looked and I shouldn't have done that Mark. Cause I've got about 28 tabs open right now with items that, Oh, I can't do without that. And it's 35 cents or it's 43 cents or it's 28 cents. And I'm like, even if I get five of each, it's a buck or I get four of each, it's a buck. I mean, That's a no-brainer for a 5.10 program if I need to like an emergency whistle not that we're going to be whistling a whole lot But an OD green whistle with a probably a stupid cheap compass that doesn't work on the top But it's a plastic whistle and you can get them for like 12 cents Well, I mean for first for under 75 cents I've just outfitted my five-man team with an emergency whistle if they need it and it did work very effectively for the For the North Vietnamese, they blow those whistles and beep beep beep beep beep. They knew exactly what that meant. They're gonna hit Rodriguez's hole! Get out! You know, that kind of thing. Over. Well, and again, it's the widget items or odds and ends items where you needed quantity to at least get everything back in order. There's a hundred different subjects like that and the China Sport 5 and Dime makes up the difference so that you've got everything online. No, will it last forever? No. But I'll give you an example. Like I said, the toolbox I have sitting right here next to me, which is my micro toolbox, from Teemu, has a screw-on utility micro vice. I've got three different versions. One has an orbital head, one has the fixed rigid, almost looks like a traditional foundry vice you'd see anywhere, and the other is set up like a wood vice, except it has rubber bumpers built in for softening the clutch while you're holding an object. You're not pressing and scratching, scraping or hopefully compressing anything. So these three items make it possible so that my two hands, my little chubby fingers, can still do the job they need to with a solder gun or with a, you know, again, a hand tool of one type, maybe an object I'm trying to introduce. I've got my hands-free capability. In addition to that, there's a Dremel tool. I've noticed this. If you get tool bins like we're talking about, you will get a handful to a shoebox full of Dremel stuff. And I have not bought a Dremel tool that I paid more than a dollar for. And when I say a dollar, I'm talking about for a tool that, you know, back in the day even, the one with the articulated arm, like a dental drill, which is what I don't think it could be used for. It's safe. Anyway, the, there, The whole kit cost me almost free literally, but then with team who I could round out the difference with a micro series of micro drill sets a spill a series of angle, you know add-on right angle Orbital heads all kinds of stuff and it's pennies so it works. I've already tested this stuff I always want to look at it because well hey, what does it look like? What does it do? You know, will it plug in? Absolutely. So those trinket items that you normally wouldn't have You can afford to have to build up that little toolkit. You can work on watches How many of you have optical devices and I've said this before? there's gonna come a time when we're gonna have to refurbish what we've got and You know for instance like scopes we used to build scopes I was just on the edge of that I just I almost was given that as a project in shop When I was in junior high school And I had the option to do build three things, so instead I built a chandelier for my mom, okay, for the house. And I, you know, did all the wrought iron bending, and I got into the wrought iron line, but the, you know, the other project that was an option was to do your own brass tube rifle scope. And a percentage of the class opted and got into that line, but there are only so many different things you could do. Now, did I do some other, I mean, there's a big difference between a microscope, like a microfine and precision scope, and a wrought iron and a sculpted wood chandelier, of course it was an elaborate chandelier, but I did all the bending, did all whatever. I still had enough time to pick up on a couple of other sheet bender projects. because that's what we had space for with the number of students and the number of machines we had and the time out on the equipment because the guy who was running the class knew exactly what he needed for time, materials, and again, you know, the resources that were at hand and how to make them work. He was an excellent shop manager, okay? So we could do that, but we don't have to build new, but we may have to rebuild what we have, and I guarantee we will have to. Nobody's gonna send us anything for free. Another thing, and by the way, we're gonna have Dave Stone from Hautari also, Chief Cooking Bottle Washer for his township, and In Charge, as a matter of fact, which is why we're getting some feedback from all over, all points of the compass right now. There's a bunch of stuff going on. I've already said this, but at eight o'clock, we're gonna be addressing a few issues. So, guys, if you can, be here at eight o'clock, please. One of the things that we need to look at is that if they start exchanging weapons of any kind, it doesn't even have to be nukes. But if they start doing nukes, everybody has bought into letting one company buy up all of its competitors. And because of this, you now have those other plants having been shut down. You only have one target of opportunity you need to hit, and all production is gone. I was just having a conversation on the engine companies with somebody today on the sub because of what I was working on. And like the guy said, Briggs and Stratton and about four other companies went out of business. A money company came in and bought all of these distressed companies up. And because they're an investment group, they don't care about productivity. They're just worried about the bottom line. So they act four out of five factories, four out of five production facilities. What's interesting is the one that they did keep operational. They're not selling to the United States But you know, what's really cute the equipment is the machine is made in the United States But they're not selling their products to us They're pointing them at Europe and that's it. They don't even care about whether or not they're selling to us So what we have is you've culled down all these different production facilities all of a sudden Wow, that was a mushroom cloud. Yeah, and that complex was within the upper five psi sphere of destruction, circle of destruction. So guess what? None of those are coming out anymore. Does everybody understand that? Everything we're seeing, everything you touch is limited. And especially with the incompetence of NAFTA, with the intentional fragging of a strong America. Remember the globalist knew that they could not make everybody serfs and slaves again as long as there is a strong America. So they are now doing everything they can to cripple America. And the kosher mafia is responsible for this. along with the rest of the turds that they're using as useful idiots. They are to blame. Well, remember what Rockefeller said, Mark, that millions of people will die in opposition to the New World Order because they won't put up with it. Millions, he said. Yeah, and all of the globalists will die because of the millions who are going to decide to shoot the bump in the curtain rather than chase the idiot in the street. Everybody understand that? I've been planting that seed everywhere. So if you're standing there, you look around, those peons, you shoot them anytime. You see that bump in the curtain? You put a hole in that ass. Why? Well, you might find all the rest of the room just fall over like lost in space robots. Because once the brain has been done away with, it's the problem. Well, their side- Yeah. Norman was overwhelmed, Norman coordinated. So we have the thinkers. But the big thing here again is every aspect, you can just keep plugging away at this. I just have an inventory of things I just know I want. It's like fishing. I don't do fishing the way I'd like to. I haven't been able to for a long time. Just don't have the time right now. I'm going to make the time. Have to. But I have been putting fishing kits together that are just perfect. I mean, I can hand it over to you. You can open it up and everything you would need to put your kit together, drop a line in the water and start reeling in bluegill or crappie or maybe some catfish, take your pick and or turtle every once in a while. Let's try not to do too many of the turtles. We'll need them later. They're a good food reserve that's easily caught when you need to. Don't catch them now when you don't need to. Always remember that. This is why I don't shoot deer in my local proximity. I want them to feel comfortable because later on when I go and they don't realize Taylor and Charlie isn't going to follow the rest of them, Taylor and Charlie can disappear out of sight of the mine and the rest won't have a clue. And the same is true with the turkeys. We've got a 30 head count of turkey here at least, maybe more. I counted at least 30 with the clutch that I just watched last week. And I wouldn't go blazing away on those right now. I try to make sure nobody knew about them, if at all possible. But as people get hungrier, everybody will be eyeballing all these creatures. But if they're in closer proximity, you've got a greater opportunity to husband the situation, provide them with opportunities for feed, develop the area with regard to wild production for your own benefit and for theirs. And then when the time comes, you still got protein you can harvest. And the same... And that's a good place to use your thermal imaging too. You can find the smaller critters. Oh, look, there's one over there in the weeds. In a reserve. Thumper, no! So again, what we're looking at here is general preparation. Nuclear, biological, and chemical defense should be a high priority. And NBC, this includes, now we're still using NBC. I don't give a squat whatever bullshit an acronym they've come up with more recently. It typically doesn't make any sense. And does it make sense? NBC is easily remembered. Why? Well, it's the National Broadcasting Corporation. Yeah, or nuclear, biological and chemical. Why would you need to change that? Well, because some asshat general or some asshat paper pushing queers a $3 bill of pedo in the pentagram. got this idea that this is going to be totally new, but there is nothing totally new about it. They just changed it for the sake of BS change, making it complicated. What's really fascinating is again, NBC, nuclear, biological, and chemical defense. NBC, remember that, nuclear, biological, and chemical defense. NBC. Now masks, I will say again Real quick or at the bottom here. So oh I will say it real quick Gun parts corp calm gun parts corp calm they have the masks and they also have spare parts You might want to check see what they have there Also, I noticed bud K had a few deals. They put one or two other items in the deals section I guess the daily deals don't know if it's still in effect. But yesterday I did see it pop up Look to see what they have at budk.com. Are they the priority for stuff like that? No, it's a sidebar thing they do. But they do have some interesting things that pop up in their inventory. They have food tabs. Not everybody has food tabs, but they have food tabs. And I recommend that every one of you get one container of food tabs and put it in your combat rig. Because we can diversify our food stuffs, but make such concentrated supplies that we would actually be able to sustain ourselves for weeks. not for a day or two, weeks. The biggest concern in the field is clean water beyond oxygen is, you know, keeping yourself breathing. Nuclear, biological, and chemical is clean water. In addition to that, you still got to have calories coming in. But we want to minimize the package size so that we can maximize the combat mode to the best of our ability. Food tabs are an excellent solution to help with that. If you look them up, you'll see what I'm talking about. Now, it's not the only thing you eat. What you do is you combine them. Now, they were used separately and on their own. And in fact, during the middle of Vietnam, it's why the containers were made the size of a standard canteen cover. So that you just use a standard canteen cover to carry them. By the way, after it's empty, you can use the carrier, the canteen cover and, oh, by the way, that container that the food tabs were in as a canteen. So while you're in the field use everything up it still has a purpose and you keep using it for another Repurpose in this case more water more water is always good Anyway, we're at the bottom of the hour. It is Liberty tree radio dot 4 mg calm and Liberty tree radio dot o RG that you're listening to right now It is Thursday and since we are at the bottom Let's see I'm trying to think because I know I've got my music list but not where I can reach it. Before I go any farther though, because I'm going to do a few music requests, the Florida Discs just went out. John, your Florida Disc is on the way, maybe more than one. And other items. Also again for the, let's see, what was that? Oh, things dropping on me again. I really need that. Gravity sucks and then it tries to kill you. So, around here. For the Michigan militia at large, we just shipped out a large block. This is a complete block for the company strength training package of SOPs, anti-armor manuals, rifle marksmanship course, all of the range books. And in addition to that, what was the other one here? Hold on. Oh, nuclear biological and chemical instructors course. That was sent out also. So you have both the, for our friends waiting for these. They were shipped out this morning at 10 o'clock. So they are in the mail and that will be traveling in Michigan. So I would say that you should be getting that within no more than two days, probably for lucky as soon as tomorrow. You never know because we did get it in first thing in the morning. So for Michigan Militia at Large, for the 26th Brigade, pretty sure, okay, that's what it looks like, 26th Brigade. Yeah, and Mission Militia at Large, 26th Brigade, your manual request, your manual order is now in the mail. torpedo in the water. So for everybody out there, square that away. And that's a company. This is basically for a company strength unit for course activity, but the SOPs are supposed to be issued out individually. Every one of you should be carrying a militia SOP, wherever you want to on your person. It's something that everybody can constantly use. They were done in pocket size for that purpose. So again, we've just the printer is doing another big pile right now. I don't know how much she'll get done before Friday, but yesterday we put in another request for everything. And it is in motion. Also, even as I speak, we have the machine running pretty well nonstop for the Florida disks and everybody. You may even find an extra one in the mail, even if you've already gotten yours. If you do, I would ask you to give it to someone else that you know is interested in what we're interested in. So the Florida Disc, if you get a spare, and I will say this also, don't send anything back. There's no reason to spend the postage when you could take that money and use it for ammunition for the war effort. You can use it to get another magazine. You can use it to fill in the blank, whatever it is you're doing. If for whatever reason we got extra, you can acknowledge that. and just say, hey, by the way, you sent me a spare, but that's not really a spare, because, well, you can, I guess if you need one. The Florida Manual especially is useful. But find somebody who's of like mind, especially that's serious. Don't just throw, you know, resources to an, you know, an idiot stick. Make sure that you provide it to somebody that is going to appreciate it. And you'll understand what we're talking about when you see what we're talking about. There's a lot of people that are in the firearm circles, especially that definitely do not have some of this information in hand. But they are highly motivated individuals, and we need more libraries out there that are more complete than they are even today. So that's a good way to make it happen. Share what you got. And make more copies. We also expect you to make more copies. Hopefully the quality of the product is good enough. You should be able to crank it out right away. Now let's see music requests. Okay. Let's go ahead jump in there caller. Hey, this is Carl in Virginia I'm interested some of these materials are these gonna be available to everybody at some point You have enough well, they have been we just haven't I don't know that we have a location where they're posted right now But they have been posted in the past They should be on the main page or they were on the main page with Liberty Tree radio. We have the well I'll go through the list We have the militia SOP pocket manual and then we have of course the anti-armor manual. In addition to that we also have the rifle marksmanship course, rifle marksmanship manual for the instructor. It's actually the one single book that is enough to give, to be used as a class structure, a format for instructing a group and giving, bringing them into the system which is actually what we use for most of the different militia units that are out there. This particular manual is the standard. Now, we're not talking about teaching you to do structural shooting from underneath and on an angle in a car, under a car, or through wreckage or anything like that. There's all kinds of special advanced studies on that. This is a basic rifle marchmanship course, and in addition to that, we do produce the range manuals to match up with the system for each of the shooters. So that is available also. I'll have to repost the prices because things have gone up. But we have offered them in the past through LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com. And hold on here, I'm looking to see because I can't pull that up here right now. In addition to that, we do have the reconnaissance, Advanced Reconnaissance Manual also. Which I have to laugh at because some people assume that we don't have the equipment that's listed in this one as some of the information that's there and yes, we do as a matter of fact both in the communications category and with regard to certain Support pieces of machinery mechanical pieces of equipment that well we have We've been in the business for a while. So It is material and technology and resources that can be acquired in fact are over the counter to a degree right now. So that's another manual but I haven't mentioned it yet. I have to upgrade it because there are some things I want to add but the existing manual could be offered still. So I'll let you out. What we'll do is well actually I might even do it by 8 o'clock. We'll see what happens. Again I've got everything sitting around the corner and on the outbound shelf. And I can give you an idea of what else might be readily available because the printer is tied up with a number of larger mapping projects right now too. But that's not going to slow down the system to get the manual in print. So we'll let you know. But just keep an eye on Liberty Tree Radio. Actually, do me a favor because I can't do that from where I am right here. If you want to check Liberty Tree Raider, I don't know, or Ed could come up and if we have it posted, traditionally what we did is we made it possible for you to pick them up through the PayPal and they were, you know, listed in the system. So I'm looking to see and I can't do it from here. This is an isolated system and it's designed that way. So good question. Let me see what I can do, hopefully. Well, let me put it this way. If Carl or anybody else listening, if you want a block of manuals so that you have everything you would need, if you need to get specified, you need 40 pieces. You know, like for instance, if you have 40 people and you want to reissue out the SOP manuals. If you need 40 manuals, I can give you a quote of what 40 manuals would cost. The shipping, of course, is the big issue. The same as the anti-armor manuals if you want to buy enough for pick up enough say for every individual which is possible but The anti-armor manuals typically everybody uses those for classroom purposes in other words you keep them in the class school box and Sit everybody down and you use it as an instructional manual for step-by-step you know tutorial in the classroom. Everybody's got it, everybody's on the same page, everybody understands. Rifle marksmanship manual, I'd order only two or three, but it depends on how many instructors you have and how big the formation is and whether or not you want backups. So maybe four, because that is the primary instructor's manual. You want one that's in circulation service and you want some that are in backup. And if you want to scan them and keep them in retention, I would. Now, the rifle logbook, the range logbook, that you need one per person. And you can't share it because it's, you know, mission specific. So, like the SOP, you'd want to order as many of the range logbooks as possible to go along with the SOP, one per person. Now again, the option out here would be the anti-armor manuals. I've got another, we do have a, by the way, and in fact, this is why I was checking with the printer yesterday, we have a second anti-armor manual. It's been kind of stagnant because we just didn't get around to finishing one or two things. It's always the case. But I did a bunch of the artwork on number one, and I did a bunch of the artwork on number two. If you're familiar with Battle for the Republic, the books, if you go back to the addendums, I did all of that artwork. I had plenty of time, so I could sit down and first I would do a full format, full size image. Then I went to the, I went and using a copy machine I did a reduction and then I did a reduction again. So it really looks cool because it's a micro detail image. But the original artwork for like the infantryman, the armored vehicles, the silhouettes, anything you see there is all stuff that I did in house. It was not commercially done. It wasn't done by anybody else because there wasn't anybody else available that could do the work I wanted done. In this case with the anti-armor, I just did a lot of the graphics, angle images, et cetera, all line drawings. And so the number, the second book is going to kind of follow up but with more detailed information on some of the newer tricks of the trade that everybody's seeing right now and how you can deal with effectively using the weapons stretch or disposal even with the defense systems that have been set up to try and protect most of the equipment out there from the more sophisticated equipment. And again, both of those manuals are the same size. Each one could be pocket capable, but the IIT armor is a little large, about half of an eight-half by 11 page. So what is it, four and a quarter? No, correction, correct. Five and a half by four and a quarter. There we go. No five and a half by eight and a half. There we are. Non-markle slap mark in the microphone. The math on the air is terrible. Well, not terrible. Just I got to think. So we're good there. And let's see if there was, I know I'm leaving one out. I know it's, I know why I'm going into a catatonic brain fart on this right now, but there is one that I'm leaving out. It's already complete because we just cranked out a bunch of them for one of the other. Malicious in Ohio. Tell me about Ohio. Hey Mark. Here we go. Go ahead Carl jump in there please. Yeah, the other thing I'm interested in is the night vision video. I know Don passed away when the second one was being in production, but I mean, I'd be happy with just another copy of the first one. Somebody borrowed mine and then I just never saw him again. That one walked away, but even just the first ones are really good in well-made video and very instructive. I'll tell you what, we actually, he finished the second one. It was the third one that we were working on. So there are two videos. You may not have the other one. So I'll tell you what I'll do because I just had those in hand. I have a stack of DVD blanks, right here to my right. And yes, it's time that we start putting those out again in force. Let me again get with that. We're going to make sure we can do this right so that everything is squared away to deal with the problem. But I don't think the cost will change. I don't think it's changed as a shipping expense like everything. It's the stuff that the government had. Night vision one and night vision two were complete. Night vision three is what we were working on. And Don was doing an entire element on thermal. That was what we were moving towards. providing more direct tutorial in that area because not many people could afford to buy it but they would like to know about it. And so in fact, ATN provided us with 10 thermal scopes just for that purpose. Thors. We have got, there are 10 thors that were provided. Figure out what the cost of just one thor is, even the cheapest one right now. And ATN was very serious about that. But unfortunately, Don got ill and that shut off the program from that direction with his efforts. Go ahead, call her. I heard a voice jump in there. Hey, Mark. This is Irish Whiskey. Concerning manuals, I'm curious, do you have like a suggested donation amount for one of everything in print? Like just like one copy of everything that's currently available? I think you killed him. Oh, I'm sorry. You know what? Well, we're good. There we go. No, no, good. No, it's a good question. I have to sit down and do the math. If I can't do it in the hour, our break, then we'll have, I'll do it tonight. We need to offer it and get it done and out of the way. It's just one of the several irons in the fire. It's not that we can't do that because I can make 20 bundles up real quick and we could shoot them out. So I'll do what I can to get that together for you. We'll treat it as a little bit of a fundraiser. How's that sound? We don't typically make... Absolutely, because I don't have any of the manuals other than... I have one specific one from you, the Green Horse, but I don't have any of the others. So I would be interested in just a bulk amount for everything. Thank you. You know what? That's the one that I wanted to brain fart on. I don't know why I couldn't think of that, but the green horse is also available, yes. So for everybody out there, and the green horse is kind of a redundant kind of a storyline to help you, you know, keep you entertained. But it's incorporating working knowledge, kind of like a less sophisticated version of Patriots surviving in the coming collapse. And when I say less sophisticated, the Patriots has an interwoven action story tied into another to a degree the green horse has that. But the green horse was designed to Pass on specific technical information and it is a it's a useful tool So yes, that is part of the formula too, but you already have that so you wouldn't need to worry about it And we have I think we've we've been up to speed on all of those I've done a ton of artwork finished for the next manual But we also see here's the problem. We shared time. So what I had to do is carve off time to do the recordings that are going in the mail to Ed for the other activity there. But it's not that I'm the only one doing this, but there are certain projects I'm the only one who really could probably finish them up because like I said, I invented them, so to speak. So let me see what I can do. Better sooner rather than later. So whatever we have we have is what I'm going to do Whatever we have will get out and I believe we have enough to do probably 20 bundles right now Barring the stuff that went out. I'll have to look to see what hat well how we depleted one of the piles of SOPs So good point. Yeah, we'll get that done if that helps Anything else? Yeah, please. You're welcome. I know sir. That is it. Thanks so much Another thing real quick is share. I don't have a problem if you want to make copies. Also, somebody said, well, the SOP manual is small. Well, yes, it's designed to be pocket form, but you could, if you're willing to, pull the staples out of it, put it on a copy machine, blow it up to 8.5x11. I don't have a problem with that, people. There's nothing, there's no restriction in how you could use these. The only thing that I ask is no matter what you copy, copy it in its entirety. Make sure that everything that you see there is in the manual that you produce. And don't leave out or leave all, I got part of it, but I couldn't get through it. No, you can't do that. We need to make sure that all the information is imparted so we have uniformity and consistency in training. And again, not that it's perfect. The SOP, for instance, covers the M17 gas mask, which at the time when we did that also, worked out because many people were buying the M10M. And as far as I'm concerned, that mask is just as serviceable now as it was when it came out. The M17 is also, but all you would do is alter in your inspection and process. The only difference would be that you would be using an external filter mask of any number of different types. There's no manual we could do that would, it would have to be about an extra 8-10 pages because we could cover each of the individual masks, but the basics for standard operating procedure with regard to gas masks is pretty much the same. Keep that in mind. The basic procedure for operating a gas mask is consistently and repetitiously the same because there's only so much that a simple tool like that can do. The only difference, the only thing is donning and clearing. And what I mean by that is when you don a mask, pretty much every mask out there, you don the same way. You grab the mask by the left and right body of the mask itself, along the outer flaps and with the suspension system. Move your chin into the mask, then you pull the mask over the head and obviously pull back. The next thing is you bring your hands forward. Now with the M17, The idea is that when you clear or when you know, which remember you're donning and clearing with the M17 you take your left and right hand and What you will do for well, forgive me No correction reverse order reverse order slap me in the face Step one is you take your right hand and cut the top of the voice mitter Step two is that you cup the bottom of the voice mitter where the exhaust is you then blow out Immediately after you have evacuated your lungs and blown out, what you do is you blossom the mask so that all of the lips make contact with your skin properly and help to promote the seal. Everything now should be laying appropriately as it should because everything with the process of that exhaust blow that you did where you covered the exhaust, so it's not going out the exhaust port. You then when you blew out it the air had to go somewhere path of least resistance Once you do that you immediately because you only got so many seconds here You've evacuated all your air you take your left hand and cover the right intake You take your right hand and you cover the right intake and suck in What does that do that seats the mask the rest of the way? Okay, now you can breathe normally so You'll probably be taking a few extra breaths because you were excited. The adrenaline rush is there because, oh my god, I had to use a gas mask. And then on top of that, you blew all your oxygen out. Now you need denied oxygen when you cover the ports. Now you know what the difference is? The first step would be the same with any other gas mask. You cover the exhaust and you blow. But the only change is that with a single filter mask and a single filter intake, all you do is take whatever, wherever the filter is, left or right, because some are center. You take your hand, you lay it over top of the intake area. and suck. And what happens is that compresses and seeks to mask the rest of the way just like it would with the M17 or the M10 or the three or four Eastern European variants that have come out of surplus that look like an M17 gas mask. So that's the only difference. Everything else is identical. Hoods operate the same way. Drinking straws operate the same way. So there's nothing that you're going to be able to write home about and go, wow, this is different. This is really alien because there aren't any there aren't any alien gas masks out there They all work pretty much the same way. Go ahead call or jump in there. Hey, this is Carl in Virginia. Hey, I just want to say You know to everybody be on the lookout for spare parts to your gas mask Things like harnesses harnesses will the elastic will will wear out on them if they're rubber they'll dry rot And yeah, pick up more. I remember back in the day I bought a three pack. I only needed one harness for by M40. But as a three pack, you couldn't buy less than three. Well, I've used all three of those. Now I'm trying to find more. You know, never assume that there's always going to be more parts out there because there's not. There's not always going to be parts. And the other thing is if you... find randomly stumble across parts of the gas mask that you don't own currently, we'll snatch it up anyway. You're probably going to find somebody else who has that mask, or you'll find a deal on it where it's stupid cheap and there's no reason not to buy it. Now you got a good gas mask and spare parts. Exactly. We all look out for the part, especially the surplus stores. Also, again, watch with all these online companies because in many cases, go through their odds and ends. The company has a specialty. Typically, there's something they're better at than everybody else. We've talked about this many times. But they always pick stuff up, like you said, either maybe another store went out of business or they bought it because they bought pallets of surplus. Well, in there was a typical government fair of stuff. And lo and behold, they picked up a bunch of NBC equipment. Well, they're not going to throw it out. But it's an odd man out for the company. They're not really interested in it. Now, the bad part is if they get really disinterested or get frustrated or something, they might throw it away. But more often than not, they usually market it out to somebody else and give it to them for a great price. In the meantime though, they're offering them as an odd man out item and you will find them listed for usually a pretty good price. Now, an example of a very common item are the out-serts for your gas mask lenses. The out-serts are made of, they're not made typically out of ballistic glass, I'm afraid of plastic. They're actually made out of glass. They're very high quality optical glass. Government spent a lot of money on this equipment. Well, the most common over, you know, an out-surf that you're going to find are made for the M17. But what's really cool is because they are a pyramidal type lens, they match up pretty close to most of the other pyramidal type lenses that are on any of the other gas masks. So you can take the outserts that were made for the M17 and use them on the M9. You can also use them at about 60%, if not 80%, if we count out the different masks that are out there now. You can use them on all of those other foreign masks that are out there. Now, what's the advantage of this? The outserts purpose is to create a defensive shield so that your primary lens is not compromised. And so what you have is your standard lens. This is why they went with glass. Okay, because the quality of the optic is such that, you know, it doesn't interfere. It's not going to scratch, fog, fade. So the inner lens is plastic, is glass. And then the out-cert, which basically it's a the same size lens, or pretty close, with an outer rubber baby buggy bumper flap. Now what you do is you roll that back. When you're wanting to install it, you roll it back around the lens, you know, from the inside out, lay it up to the lens that you're putting it out, where you're putting it on the gas mask, and then you take that little flipper layer around the outside, the flap, and roll it around the edge of your existing eyepiece. Now you have a secondary shield, but it will not interfere with your ability to see And it also, of course, assists with anti-fogging because it creates a thermal pocket to retain a certain amount of heat, but also allow for a certain amount of cooling. And the other thing about the outserts is that if you are able to find enough hoods, and by the way, even hoods that are not made for your mask can be used with your mask. Most of your masks, if they have an external filter, typically will accommodate a left hand mounted filter. If you're looking forward, it'll be on the left hand side. Even if the intake area is not big enough, you can cut that out. You don't go crazy, you don't excessively cut, defeats the purpose of the hood. What you do is you determine the basic spec and you can open that up and if you have like an M17 hood it will fit the M9, it will fit most of these others. However... If you take a piece of duct tape, remember Mr. Duct Tape is our friend. Cut a square piece of duct tape, put it on the patch hole on the other side, the other intake hole. Put a piece on the inside, take another piece, put it on the outside, squeeze them together. Now you have a seal and the hood is doing its job. So, see, you can make it work. Almost all of the masks, and here's the interesting thing, the M17 is close enough so that with the combination voice mitter and filter intake, if it's in the center of the gas mask, that same hood will work. All you have to do is take two pieces of duct tape and seal each cheek intake point on the M17 hood. improvise, adapt, and overcome. Now, by the way, try to use a tactical color. Don't use orange or blue, you know, tactical color, but when I say, you know, one on the inside, one on the outside, it's pretty simple. You'll understand when you see it. I bring this up because there are cases of M17 hoods up in the location. If they're still there, I will have them tomorrow or Saturday, and then we will distribute them accordingly. We're at the top. That didn't take long. God bless our Republic. Death to the new world order. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen of the Empire. Voila rah. And we're on the march, may I say in nice. Voila, improvise that death will overcome. If you don't have a hood, you can make them from a number of different materials, like very simply a garbage bag of wood. And gentlemen, this is the evening intelligence report. I'm Mark Kornke. I'm Dave Stellan. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories Central, East, West, and South. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org. We're on WBCQ, the planet, 6.160, regular shortwave. And we're on satellite. I want to say hi to all our merchant operators out there, whatever body of water you're on. Pay attention to where the lifeboats are. In many cases, you're in a war zone. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies inside and outside the United States. It is 30. Yes, it is the 9th of May. It has been all day rainy. Cool! Winds coming out of the north, winds coming out of the east, winds coming out of the west. Wait a minute. Yeah, we actually have had some pretty interesting, classic spring weather today, and the temperature dropped, so pay attention. You'll need a jacket out there if you didn't know that already. It is the 16th year of open, obvious, and in-your-face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K-2024 old Earth calendar. I'll give it all she's got, Captain. And 2024 Battle for the Republic, Book One, The Dance of Swords. We got Dave Stonewall with us again. Dave, there's been a lot of stuff going on around the state, and needless to say, we got a lot of stuff going on around the country and the planet right now. Let's jump it off in your neck of the woods, sir. Well, you know, first off, I mean, let's talk here about for a second. about our little black SUVs meeting with the local law enforcement. And let's just send this out. Any local law enforcement that's not meeting with black SUVs and the three letter agencies, well, guess what? Look in the mirror, you're the cannon fodder. You're the first ones they plan on sending to die. The other ones, well, they got secret plans and... They're continuing to build because, you know, let's face it, the feds suck. There's not enough of them. They got to have all the local cops to do their dirty work. Because without them, well, then what? A war would last an afternoon. I mean, we could pick a picnic basket, and by the time we got done eating, well, it'd all be dead. So, with that being said, you know, I know there's other sheriffs that we're making contact with to find out exactly if they've been contacted or not, because it seems like it's not every sheriff. Hint, hint. So they're trying to pick and choose probably what areas they plan on doing some kind of dirty, secret little shenanigans at. And let's just be very clear. If you think you're invisible, you're not. Because everybody's wise to your little SUVs and your little, you know, there's a certain look to the FBI and you can just tell whenever they come in the area. I mean, if it's a federal agent, you kind of kind of, oh, crap, that guy don't fit. And people pay attention to that because you keep making more and more enemies. Remember, you're the ones just beating down grandma. So you keep making more and more people mad. Well, whenever you come floating in and you think you're invisible and you're all dark out windows black SUV sticking out like a sore thumb people follow and Whenever you're meeting in areas like the fairgrounds at the fairground building where you're going inside the building and You think that your conversations are secret, you know how that goes mark It's a secret. Well, always remember this. If the United States government makes it and, you know, our federal agencies get to use it or whatever to have you, we like sending all that over to the secret police over in foreign, you know, foreign countries. And a good country that, you know, you can always go to to buy your secret spy equipment from is good old Israel. Because the Jews, they'll sell their youngest child to you if you have enough money. So anything that you want, if you've got enough money, you can buy it from them. Hint, hint. So if you think your secret meeting can't be heard, hmm, maybe we need to rethink this. So anyways, just wanted to touch on that for a second. Anything you want to add in there, Mark? Well, we've had contacts. Everybody knows that there is a major wave of activity that spiked here over the last two days and has increased actually. And we're getting feedback from people who are virtually across the state, including the Upper Peninsula, have been reporting that there are a series of mechanisms, organizations out there that have been calling in, like you said, select Not everybody but select individuals to try and win them over to whatever it is that they're Thinking about trying to act upon. I don't think that they're going to do very well, but there certainly is a lot. There's a lot of There are percentage of people not a lot. There's a percentage of people who at least will listen and the problem that the bad guys have is that many of them will share what they've heard which is what's happening right now, so There is a lot of there's a lot of my radio screen is gone. Great place my radio screen is down. It was music. It was out of the ambulance music. Oh, that makes sense. Okay, well, Edward, we might want to check our live stream. It appears that whatever we're drilling the tooth in the right spot right now, or at least we're kind of informing people. Everybody has got their ear to the rail and they're eyeballing a number of different locations where we have a lot of comings and goings taking place. So again, pay attention. Ed, if you could, you might want to check the live stream. We've got feedback from one of our rebroadcasters. He can come up and let you know he's probably checking even as we speak right now. And again, we appreciate that. Any time that we have difficulty with broadcasting, give us a holler and then Ed can confirm or deny whether or not we've caught it. What are you talking about the people before I messed up? Interesting. Okay, so basically what's happening is we have a series of meetings that have been taking place all over the state of Michigan, both sides, west and east. There we go. Ed's got it, hopefully, we'll see what happens. And again, I cannot emphasize enough that we are in a very tense situation, not us, not just personally us, but the country in general, the bad guys are becoming very, very frustrated. Nothing's working for them. And everybody is, nobody can be properly quote unquote distracted. I mean, certainly they'll try to get us killed in a war overseas, more on that in a minute, if they can, because that's the last option that they have and the way it's going, because we have these crazy town fruit loop, purple haired nutcase, satanic petal queers, running the government, running the system. and having their way, they've casually talked about going into World War III or at least a mild version, which I will remind you, as we all know, there is no such thing, especially for all of you out there. There's nobody with anything to help you if they create that situation. In fact, all of you are perceived automatic enemies of the state. The only person that's going to help you in any situation up and coming will go in the bathroom, look in the mirror. There's your savior right there. You're going to have to deal with whatever problems develop. So anyway, what we have is a series of already confirmed contacts, but we also are different locations that we're observing where there have been a series of a flurry of, let's just say, very rapid and not all of them scheduled contacts with county and state representatives. So this indicates that there's a motion afoot to perform some scurrilous deed. Some things we've got information on we're not going to necessarily talk about, but Dave, go ahead, jump in there, please. I'm going to see if I can... Well, it just came the lead in this kind of leads into our second part here to you know, I want to get into Now, you know, I got some information and Let me just kind of run this down Kind of how things kind of flow through the world I took a two-year vacation. Remember that mark and one year I was for one whole year. I was in this wonderful place and And they had all these people from all over the world they sent in there and I made friends. I made allies. I made contacts. And it's amazing that there was one guy from Ukraine, fluent Ukrainian and fluent in Russian. That's very important to keep that in mind here, people. There was a little Chinese guy and made real good friends with him. Guy from Turkey the guy from Iran and an El Salvadorian so with that being said So whenever I need to check a story I kind of make some some contact because well we made friends and we exchanged information Whenever I have a question I send off a question sometimes it might take a little while, but I'll get an answer back If they got a question, it might take a little while, and I'd get an answer back. Because, no, I'm sorry to disappoint the NSA, but we don't make phone calls. Anyways, very important part of some information come down about some advanced nuclear war protocols. Now, Russia and China, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, They've all been doing some well Russia and China in Iran. He's especially he's been doing some advanced nuclear war defensive Positioning where they've been training to for defense on nuclear war the Russians upset they're gonna send some advisors into Venezuela where they've got missile launchers and We're gonna do some advanced training with the Venezuelans and then they're gonna send some advisors into Cuba where all that's right We've got nuclear vessels in Cuba again And we're going to do some training there, some advanced training. Say, something you're not hearing about, and I'm pretty sure NBC and ABC hasn't mentioned it, we went into advanced nuclear war training for a preemptive strike. That's right, preemptive strike, because NATO and the West decided we need this, we need, evidently need a nuclear war. The information coming back is, well, NATO thinks they can do a tactical nuke and get the upper hand over in Europe and if need be threaten tech nukes over Taiwan with the Chinese. The response coming back is there is no such thing as a small nuclear war. If there's a tech nuke launched, it's an all-out war. So we could see a scenario where the feds were talking to the local PD because they understand there could be an exchange. And if it's a big nuclear war, well, guess what? Then we're in the crosshairs. So I would suggest digging out your training, the word training, NBC gear, and doing some training. Now there's nothing like doing training with your gas band scone trying to suck air while you're running and trying to go through your maneuvers with all that mop gear on. That's less shooting with with all that gear on. It's a whole new challenge. We've done it in past and I'm gonna push our guys and we're gonna set up for a couple more trainings of nuclear biological chemical warfare systems. So need to break out the training masks, the training filters, the training mock gear because you should have a set to train in much less ones sitting back for whenever you really do need it. This is why, you know, for a long time we've talked about gas masks. Mark has been, you know, constantly talking about gas masks to get filters and get filters. If you can't... train in that gear, you're not going to fight in that gear. And if there's mushroom clouds, then I'm pretty sure you're gonna wanna put that gear on. You're gonna have to learn to operate with it on. Can't emphasize again, urban areas, if you're in it, you should've already left. Sell your house and buy you a place in the country, for God's sakes. The urban areas is a lockdown and kill everybody in any ways. You should have already moved to the country. Yeah, realistically, let's understand. There is no solution to help anyone. The mass of resources that would be needed have never been accumulated or I should say re-accumulated to anywhere near the level of what we had with a true civil defense system. Since FEMA, which is it, the FEMA's policy is execution. For that reason, we are protecting ourselves from the regime and at the same time from the threat from above and down range. One of the things to remember is if you don't have enough NBC systems to do the job right, you may have to improvise to create training aids. One of the things that I've mentioned before is watch for equipment that has been opened or compromised. It's not junk. It becomes your training tech. It's the equipment that you pull so that you don't wear down or open up and compromise other equipment that's new in the package, old inventory. There isn't anything that's outdated. Nothing in NBC is outdated, nuclear, biological, and chemical defense. Nothing. every piece of equipment that has been made still applies. The biggest tech change is always the filters. And even there, there's only so much that can be done with them, the more sophisticated filters require, again, I have a time date for a reason because in some cases, many, they actually have an active agent that is designed to neutralize but not kill the operator when it comes to biological threat. Let me point something out. You can get a full range NBC filter for your 40 millimeter gas mask and for many of the other masks that will protect it against almost any kind of threat that could possibly exist. However, you will also pay the price for that. And I mean literally the cost is outrageous. So, that's where the sticker shock is. So, we can do only so much, but because people have committed to certain resources like that, there's people listening that have the money, have done actually gone through the motion. We need training technology. So, you select units that have already been in use. Certainly you need to train with the mask that's the basic mask that you're using now that you will be using And for that matter you can simply use what are already active used in use filters for your Training phase in any situation. I recommend that now if you have the Israeli masks and some of the euro masks you got when you pick up that Israeli civil defense mask or the M15 there's a white a cylindrical object with threads and it has a cap on the end but with a hole about the size of your little finger. You know what that is? That's a training filter. Oh, that's not a filter, Mark. You're right. It's not a filter, but it's a training filter. What does it do? When you take that white plastic device and screw it in where your filter belongs and you train with it, except for the difference in weight, because obviously it doesn't have the big tank there, it produces the same resistance when you operate the mask as if you were wearing a filter. It actually served a purpose. It wasn't just a plug to fill in the hole. It wasn't as a useful tool, so hopefully you didn't throw that out because if you're working with all of your people to practice donning the gas mask, this is a good solution. It eliminates some of the bulk only temporarily. You really do want to train with a filter of some kind. There are lesser grades of filter. They're actually out there. But in many cases, you will find that you can buy filters that actually have been opened. Well, they're not perfect. Actually, it would still be good for radiological, by the way. But again, this gives you a training tech piece of equipment so that you can repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat. And everybody needs to practice. Donning and then you know again extracting themselves from the mask reinserting the mask in the bag where it belongs appropriately stationed and Then repeat the process of donning the mask Chem suits are the same way. There's open to chem suits that are out there. In fact, we just picked up a ton of them at a particular site Although many of them are actually in sizes that are tough to get so I don't care what condition are in they're actually fully fully functional but And I hate doing this. I even said this in the last several with many items over the last couple of months. I hate having to open something up and compromise it, but we need one for training. It's like our medical supplies. We're going to commit and open up one of everything. Not all items, but most all items. Some items are so rare I can't even open one. But once you've opened it, you reinsert it into the packaging and you'll use that as your replaceable training aid, as your reusable training aid over and over again. The same is true with NBC, Nuclear Biological and Chemical Defense Technology. With regard to rubber boots, there's a number of different systems out there. We just found, we had a source here that we ran into that has the old fish boots, which were specifically made for chemical defense. They're not that common anymore. It used to be they're everywhere. Nobody knew what to do with them. Now people can't find them. Rubber rain boots will work. Okay? And let's not forget that again, U.S. military, for instance, the green rubber boot that is the regular U.S. military stretchy rubber buckler boot, not the five buckle before it was the five buckle boot. Those are the NBC boots, the over boot that the military uses. So rain boots are an option. Rubber gloves are going to be a mix. You can find all kinds of different sources. There are surplus sites available still that have the actual US military NBC rubber gloves. They are sized. They do come in sizes. It's tough to find bigger sizes because everybody's been buying the bigger sizes for industrial work and things of that nature, but they are out there. So that's another priority too. And don't forget, Mr. Duck Tape is your friend. Buy more duck tape. Buy more duck tape. Buy more duck tape. Go ahead, Dave. Well, and also keep in mind, if you have dug down... your intake has got to have an NBC filter on it and you got to have backups. You've got to suck air in. But also keep in mind that if you suck air in, you've got to have an exhaust. And if you have an exhaust, you've got to make sure that you disguise it the best you can. Because the exhaust fumes can be detected. Do you catch that? Even they're a big fancy bunkers. They gotta suck air in and they gotta get air out. So if you run across one of their big bunkers, very simple. Just you ain't gotta blow your way into it. Just close off the air going in and the air coming out. Because that's the best way to get anybody out of a bunker. But on that note as well. If you have a bunker in you have dug down if you do not have two Emergency exits to get out of that thing other than the normal way of getting in and out then you have stood up Go back and redesign dig down and fix the problem if you have to The best way to kit somebody is a keep them in their bunker is you just got to sit on the hole They go in and out of but if you've got x holes It's a lot harder to catch you in your own, you know, dug grave, because that's what you're doing. You're digging in your own grave if you ain't got all the ways out. Also, don't forget your house. If you're mugging in, in your house, because I know a lot of people plan on doing that. Every window, every door, everywhere there can be air coming in, you've got to seal it up. But on the same note, Remember, your house sucks air from the outside. Your plumbing sucks air from the outside. You gotta have filters for that. And you gotta have an exhaust. I mean, normally we just, we breathe in our houses because we pull air in and we dump air out because we open doors, we open windows, and generally you gotta have that sealed up of a system of an exit. for carbon dioxide, but you've got to in an NBC environment. So don't forget those things, extremely, extremely important. NBC filters have got to be used for intakes, no matter what you have that you're planning on staying in. And practice it, practice changing them out. Because these things have got to be, you got to be doing these things on a regular basis so that you can instantly Go over to your filter change it out and put a new one on it. It's as fast as possible You don't get 10 15 minutes to change that builder out people Because every second counts if they do what they're talking about doing Then we have got to be prepared for it The better we get prepared the farther we push them out because if they see everybody digging in and getting ready Then it makes their whole plan worthless And that's the ticket right there. One of the things that's going on right now with the conversations has to do with the idea that they're going to be shutting the system down in October. Now, we've always heard, you know, Black October, you know, the October surprise, et cetera, et cetera. But right now, they're approaching public individuals with specific timelines and scenarios. And because of that, it's obvious that, as we've said many times, they don't know what to do about the election. They don't want the election. They only have so many options as far as what they can do. And again, if it's going to be a major conflagration or take us right up to the edge and then through some stupid act they proceed. And even though they didn't plan on doing it, but certain parties inside the, you know, Satanic, pedo-queer agenda, you know, driven ranks, somebody does want it. If the situation proceeds to the, you know, catastrophic result of unconventional nuclear and biological and chemical warfare, biological is certainly It's the one thing that everybody is, you know, let's just say that's the last on the list. They'd rather nuke and fry things. They figured that that's relatively sterile. And it literally is. I mean, with regard to what the devices do. It's more likely that that is in their mind is something that they could accept because it terrorizes the population. You and me and everybody else were supposed to be so fearful that we'll just surrender our freedom, surrender our country, and let the globalists have their way. Now, mind you, they do really plan on killing a whole bunch of other people in the process. They've been bragging about that, which means whoever's bragging about that are the people that are in our sights to be hunted down no matter what. So there's no place that they are going to be able to hide. I don't care if they do go underground, everybody will be finding them. There's only somebody, there's not enough places to hide, let's put it that way. But right now they're trying to recruit the peons. They're trying to make them feel special when we know for a fact that ain't nobody special on the list, as they say. Everybody is perishable slash expendable, but there are fools stupid enough to drink the Kool-Aid. And that's what they're trying to find people who will not only drink the Kool-Aid, but mix the bowl, mix the jar up and try to get others to partake at the same time. And this is a very, very bad situation for everybody because, again, it's not that they can win, but the bad guys can do damage. And since they hate our country, look what they're doing with the invasion from outside. These people hate you. They hate America. They hate Christian people. They hate white people. They hate heterosexual people. They, H-A-T-E is their vocabulary. And these wicked little monsters are in motion. There is no doubt. Now to what degree they're going to Flip the switch I'm counting on the idea that you know the best laid plans are rats and rodents always You know come to a bad end they always fail and what we have here is a situation where their mistakes can quite easily cost everybody else a tremendous amount of blood and wealth so Nuclear biological chemical defense technology. It's pretty straightforward. You can go to a number of different sources As was asked, you know, was well not asked, mentioned in the two-hour block, spare parts for your gas mask. Now let's not forget GunPartsCorp.com, GunPartsCorp.com, GunPartsCorp.com has an extensive spare parts inventory. They actually have quite a few items. They're not the only ones. Most companies that are surplus companies have some NBC technology hanging around. Most people don't know what it does. or don't see the need right away, but if you have particular items that you need to bring back online or maybe need to be rebuilt, a lot of people have M17 gas masks still laying around. They've been told they're not as good. They do work. We're going to need every mask we've got. We're going to need spares. We're going to have battle damage, et cetera. M17s are actually quite easily rebuilt with virtually brand new parts. So, head harnesses or even air intake, voice emitters, baffles and diaphragms, all of them are available, brand new old inventory. So, you literally could rebuild that mask. Go ahead, jump in there. And for God's sake, if you got the gas mask by the hood... because just putting a mask on doesn't protect you. It'll come in through your ears, it'll come in through your skin, it'll come in through the top of your head. Get the hood that goes with your mask and make sure you have it as a complete unit. As a matter of fact, again, sarcoinc.com has some material, but they don't list all of their items on their page. Coleman's.com, Coleman's.com, they're an old style surplus store business. They have a lot of things on the shelf that they do not have listed on the computer. So if you're thinking that your computer search is going to get, you know, deny, confirm or deny that somebody has something, you're wrong. This type of inventory with a surplus company is tedious. There's too much little tiny stuff. Typically your best bet is to call the company. Hey, I'm looking for These items. What do you have or is there anything in stock and then they'll usually refer to somebody Bob Hal or whoever Whose job it is to take care of that particular niche of their inventory and they're gonna tell you because they're pretty well familiar with the inventory what it is that you need. So, or what is they have? Then you figure out what you want. That's that simple. Another thing is there are a number of other companies that have masks. Some only have hoods. And the reason for that is that they got stuff in surplus or they bought stuff with part of an inventory for someone else. And I think right now we need to scour the system. So everybody want to pitch in. I would also say this. You may have a local store. There's a couple down on the ridge like around where Fort Knox was and also Fort Campbell outside that area. There are some phenomenal surplus stores that have a lot of this inventory, but you may know about it. But if you could, share it with everybody else because it's not generally known. Now, some of the other sources have eaten up, have been eaten up and have little material available at all in any surplus. That's one of the problems with when you have a war like we're having now where everything gets sent out of the country, a lot of the material and inventory that everybody was counting on or assuming would always be there isn't. So the other half of this is why Mr. Ductape is your friend is we may have to be improvising, adapting and overcoming. One of the other things all of you need to purchase is go to Menards or Lowe's and whatever big box store you choose out there that's a hardware store. And buy a couple of boxes of the heavy gauge industrial garbage bags. They are by themselves a tube. A big tube with a sealed end. All you have to do is take your scissors, cut a head hole, cut a couple of arm holes. And your torso protection is built right there. Boom. The other important thing is that we're talking heavier gauge plastic that can hold up pretty well. It's still a disposable item, but garbage bags can be used to produce a slick side chem suit with that. And again, duct tape pretty much can get away with anything. So we have to be thinking ahead. These are raw material items that you can put on the shelf. They serve more than one purpose. There are any number of different other things we can do with them. It's a cheap small piece of visequeen if needed. All you do is cut two sides and you've got a flat sheet. One of the things I would watch for, pay attention, they're still out there. I used to buy them for nothing. I used to get them when I was buying surplus by the ton are the World War II desiccant covers. Now, this literally is kind of like a big garbage bag made in chem suit material, and it was designed as a first cover in the event of a chemical artillery or chemical bomb or spray attack. And what it's designed to do is you rip the package open, shake it, and it opens up into a big bag. You get into it, literally put it over you, and while you're putting everything else on, it protects you, and even as you're being, as the attack takes place, the spray would be, because in many cases it could be any one of the different skin irritants. etc. that was designed to take the hit while you're busy donning the mask, prepping the rest of your gear, and switching over, say, to your chem suit. Now, I used to take these literally a head hole in them and arm holes in them and use them as a final over layer when I ran the gas chambers because it prevented saturation of my primary equipment. They're out there. They're the size of, well, they're about 10 inches long. They're about an inch thick and about, oh, 4 inches to 4.5 inches wide, depending on what year they were made. They have a gray-green cover on the outside. They typically have a black line on one end. narrow, you know, from one side of the narrow side to the other. They're coarse. They're the same material. The outer packaging material is the same as the actual cover itself. So they look kind of like a cross between a chem suit hood and the chemical suit that everybody's familiar with, even the newer ones. So another thing to look for, usually most people don't know what they're for. If you see them, especially since they're, you know, again, an odd man out, you probably can get them cheap and always peruse all of your old surplus stores for stuff like that. You never know what you're going to find. And now the bubble stores, they're buying all new stuff, so there's not a whole lot that you're going to find that typically is, you know, genuine surplus, not very much of it. They're not really interested in it. So this is one of the things where, again, there's a lot of niches all over the place, all over the country where surplus like this is sitting around. Another thing, don't forget Granger. I mentioned it a minute ago. Everything we're talking about, if you are pulling your hair out because I can't find surplus, well, it just may not be available. There's never been enough NBC technology. So once again, if you go to Grainger and go to the PPE section, Personal Protective Equipment, Industrial, everything we're talking about is there. Now, how much does it cost? Well, that's the whole problem. Some of it, if you think, I want the best there is, well, then you'll pay the price. But there are lesser solutions to help you deal with at least touching that base to cover that particular subject. and get the job done. And by the way, again, as I mentioned, filters for all of your gas masks, standard 40 millimeter in every range of defense level is at Grainger over the counter. You go take a look, you can go to Grainger online, go to their PPE department. 40 millimeter chemical protection or gas mask filters. I know how you'd search. You can do a couple different searches with the methods. It will take you to the department and you look at what's available. And you can spend $4,000 and $500 on one filter. In this day and age with the devaluation of currency, it's probably going up to about $500 or $600. But those filters, they do guarantee they will stop. Fill in the blank, some of the worst biological threats you can imagine. But that's what it costs if you're looking at if you really perceive that you're going to be hit with worst of the worst of the worst So then by the way the reason they build this the laboratories that build the worst of the worst of the worst Well, they have to have this equipment around. Oh That's right. Yeah, think about that one So, we have a threat that's being presented. The general population is going to get caught flat-footed and will probably do the typical face-brah panic. One of the problems is gas masks have already gone up in price because people very quietly have been turning to this issue and the products are being absorbed. They have disappeared off the market to a degree. There is no replacement. and the industry knows it, so the prices are reflecting availability. That's where the problem is. The other problem is that we haven't seen it yet. When we get to a real serious hyper threat environment, the scallywags go in there and buy all the cheap stuff up and mark it up 10 times over. It's the same product you could have bought for 6, 10, 20, $30. Now it will be 3, 4, 5, $600. So whoever's ahead of the curve logically will have more goodies for less money. And I highly recommend that you do that. More goodies? More is better. More good-erer, as they say. Anything else, Dave? Jump in there, please. Well, yeah, and one more, you know, a couple more things here. Now, I'm understanding that for most nuclear attacks or any bad scenario, all I need is an old school desk. Because if we if we hide underneath that I'm pretty sure that protects us from everything There's like a magic force field or something. I mean that's what we did back in the 70s remember that But anyways serious note pay attention to your sheriff's department Because them NBC vehicles They're not small and most of them are coming in with six or eight wheels on them. They're called the L a B's Pay attention if they're rolling them in Your area's prime target area they plan on doing something in your area So and it won't be like they might be in your main capital state police areas But most generally they put them at the sheriff's department and they'll have a special garage for that But you gotta remember these Honex they like opening the door and bringing it out and they give it a bath and look at us Look what we got. That's great But pay attention They don't like the track ones. I know two different sheriffs department that had track ones and well, you know Tracks are require somebody to be able to work on a track And well, they got the little rubber pads. Well, then they tear up their pavement and their concrete and they don't like that. So they've opted for the wheeled versions. So pay attention. They roll them in. They're not going to paint them a nice white or a nice anything. They're going to be coming in green. I seen two today on my way home from Wisconsin and they were headed south and they were coming out of Oshkosh. So They're headed some wares and people just pay attention to those things and that that's what made me think about I thought hold it I Need to go wander in past our sheriff's permit a few more times Because they have one garage that they don't have anything in as of yet but They used to house a special thing and they got rid of so pay attention if you got you know friendly that, you know, ghost or sheriff's department or whatever have you, or you got somebody just a nosy Karen. Make sure you find out if they have a special vehicle. That's important piece of equipment. We'll especially point the nosy Karens that we don't like towards them. That's really fun. It kills two birds with one stone. Certain people that we didn't want around anyway, yeah, you know what, they're planning on blah, blah, blah, oh, no, they're not. I'm going to find out about that. Oh, my God, you know, I asked about it. They threatened me. Really? They threatened you. Wow, I'm surprised. I would never have expected that. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. But in reality, again, that is something that is possible. You can utilize resources that are available by dropping, you know, an idea. and letting somebody else do all the footwork for you. It wouldn't be the first time we've been able to get that accomplished. Now, I would point out that... With the arrangements that apparently are being made to try and recruit, this of course also ties into the anti-gun agenda. They're going to be pushing to try to disarm more aggressively, obviously. They've been up to this in several different parts of the country that have run up to the wall. They can't really go any farther without actually acting. It is obvious that the first perceived threat is the American people. That's you and me, all of us. The invaders, they don't worry about. The illegal alien invaders, they have been brought in through the side door so that they do not swear allegiance to America. They are foreign operatives on American soil. Everybody has been lamenting over the last couple of days about them voting, which is bad, but it's not the least of what should be your concerns because it's obvious that there is another agenda afoot right now. Congress has asked several times if the illegal aliens are being put into uniform, if they're bringing them in the military. They first couldn't answer. In fact, there was a long pregnant pause because they were trying to figure out what verbiage to use to lie to Congress. I'm serious. If you watched any of the questions that were direct, The character literally went into brain hiccups. You could see his brain gears were going, trying to figure out how he could lie his ass off when he responded. And he did. And so basically using word salad, he confirmed that, yes, they're putting illegal aliens in uniform. So, that's not an if, just the one you're going to be facing off against these foreign nationals. Now, remember, they brought them in and they have not sworn allegiance to the United States. They are foreign operatives on American soil brought in by traders for the purpose of attacking the American people, period. That is their goal, to fight you. So on top of the rest of the issues that we're facing, remember that at some point they're going to jump off on part of the agenda because they simply, they have no choice. They actually have to act. They can't get away with what they're proposing within their own sphere unless they eradicate the armed American, which represents a strong America. And that is something they are trying to destroy. So we all have a mission all of our own and the tasks at hand are obvious. Make sure that if you are training, trainers you will fight for, you will fight as you have trained. And every time that you get together, first of all, remind everybody you need to have the proper materials in hand. Here's the biggest problem right now. You should be, when you train, you should be ready to fully deploy if you are training. This has been my big that's the toughest thing was sitting up a training operation and I you do not want to confuse training materials with Active components of your your militia be one of the things to remember a live live ammunition If you think you're gonna be using blanks somebody has to be Absolutely in control of the environment while you're doing that But in the same breath, you know, it's like what happened actually in the past year. Well units have been mobilized militia units mobilized as They were training and it's actually it gave us an edge Because these forces were already readily available and we're deploying quickly So you when you have the training aids for say NBC For most of what you might run into in civilian circle anti-personnel gas Even whatever training filter you had on the mask is going to work because that particular filter is low end or should be considered rated low end because it may be tired. So we don't know how heavy, how much it's loaded up. But it will serve especially if gas is deployed. The important thing is to make sure that you have your spares with you, which you should have anyway at least one in your kit, your deployment kit. And if you have to, again, if you expect or anticipate because other units have reported a chemical attack or reported confrontation which chemical was deployed, then you need to be prepared to be able to switch out to the advanced filters as needed. It's not likely you're going to see biological threat initially, but you are going to see better chemical threat. Higher concentrations of CSCN, the higher concentrations or higher grades of capsium oil spray, a sludge agent of whatever type. The aggressor will use this, the system will use this, and you need to be prepared to deal with it. It's not difficult to deal with the threat, but you have to have the tools in the toolbox. And then once you know how to use them, it's pretty straightforward. So the important thing is to have it in the hand. and know how to use it. So every time that we train, you should set aside an hour approximately and maybe two, depending upon what the subject is, on deployment of your NBC defense technology. And you make it a religious process because breathing is fundamental. You know, you can go without food for weeks, go without water for days, but we count minutes if you don't have air. So again prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. We're gonna make sure that we're ahead of the curve here We're almost to the top Dave anything else jump in there, please Nope, I think we've pretty well covered everything we needed to cover tonight now again for all of our friends if you have any other reports usual channels and again We've had stuff going on in at least half a dozen local areas. We've had direct feedback already We've had more than probably a dozen overall with people reporting something unique taking place all within the last day here, two days at the most, because some of the reports were retarded, in other words they were late. The individual had to wait until they could make contact. But definitely there is a lot of activity in the system right now. So we all need to be paying attention and again be ready for whatever threat develops. And again, I wouldn't be surprised if the idiots are stupid enough. Are they stupid enough to try and come after the weapons or try to create a confrontation? It's not so much they're stupid, but they're desperate. Well, they are stupid. But I'm not giving them the benefit of anything. They are stupid. But again, they're dangerous. And this is a situation where the bad guys are literally panicking because of the conditions that they created. We didn't do this. They did. But each one of the, each lie that they've generated and each action that they've taken has exacerbated the system, the situation in the system that much more. And it is cascading. You can see this in their failures or their activities that are so public with regard to their attacks on Trump. I mean, come on, people. It's about as, well, it's as ludicrous as we can imagine. And most people say, well, they couldn't do that. They aren't that. They wouldn't be that crazy to do that. And then they do it. Then they actually perform the act. And it's like, oh my God, that's so obvious. Yes, well, they're simple minded. They're wicked. They're evil. And they're desperate. That's simple. And because of that, they're dangerous. And it's dangerous for you and your family. Most important to remember, it is dangerous for you and your family. Because crazy town won't stop once crazy town starts moving. And like Dave said, we're in the crosshairs. Not just us personally, but all of us. We are in the crosshairs. A nuclear exchange knows that no nuclear weapon has any friends, just like Mr. Grenade is not your friend. Once the pin is pulled, Mr. Grenade is not your friend. It's common sense. So act accordingly. Be prepared to deal with the threat. and you need to take care of your own. So go through the process of finding out what you need in the way of supply, implement procurement, and then make a point of practicing with a percentage of the equipment. And everybody should know their personal equipment. Take the time, look at what you have, and understand that it has to be a priority. By the way, most of your NBC gear, as far as your chem suits, also make great cold weather suits. So you're not losing a penny if you think, well, I'll just give you a sit there. Guys, the American-made chem suits are fantastic cold weather gear. And I'll remind you that the Brits have always considered their NBC equipment cold weather equipment. That's part of their training, just in case, because why not? It's already there. We're at the top. For everybody out there, God bless the Republic. Death to the New Order. We shall prevail ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. We are on the run today and night. Day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day and night for the day So one of the sponsors is on their job. And we will be back tomorrow. Bye-bye. Pure linen. We're home from the races. Congratulations. Afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the first hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm Mark Carkey. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. West, East, South, and Southeast. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite. I want to say hi to all our merchant marine operators out there, no matter what body of water you are operating on right now, and God bless you. Appreciate you doing the part, rebroadcasting Liberty Tree Radio in whatever venue you choose. And we again greatly appreciate the work that you guys have been doing for now a lot longer than I realized. So again, thank you. We're also in a myriad, a plethora, a bouquet of other communications technologies both inside and outside. These United States it is. Friday. It does not seem like Friday. I swear Thursday should be another full 48 hours with the way things have been, especially with yesterday. But it is Friday. It is CECO, the ammo day and quartermaster Friday. It's a 10th of May 16th year of open, obvious sitting your face. Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K 20 24 old earth calendar 2020. Battle for the Republic, The Dance of Swords, which is book one. So for everybody, again, beautiful day. You could not have asked for a more perfect day to get outside, get stuff done. Ran into some great tool solutions today. There's always something on a Friday, any yard sale or estate sale. And yep, there were. And oh my goodness. I've got more work for myself. Every time I get new tools, first thing I do is you go through everything, look for anything. It might be a dot spot or a questionable point where it might start oxidation, and you get rid of it. Number two is everything gets lubricated with a permanent lubricant that's going to stay with what you are using. I like to use PLS, but it's gotten a little expensive. There's a couple of other lubricants out there. One that's a little less expensive. It's a fluid film. Runs about anywhere from $9 to $12 a can. Powerful rust and corrosion protectant. Protects all metals. Lanolin base. Superior lubricant. No solvents. Long-lasting. Non-toxic. Non-hazardous. This stuff sticks well. And it's been around since 1943. World War II. The interesting thing about this is it is in the same family line as the PLS mid-grade products for coating metals or for sealing crystalline structure. And I use this on all of the tools that are in the auxiliary or in the vehicle toolboxes so when they're sitting, they're not going to break down right away. The cool thing is even if the stuff slopped off, it's inside the toolbox, which it's not going to do very easily. Even with heat, This stuff bonds really well. You know, if it gets a little warm, sunny, whatever. And you can actually, a lot of guys are using this under the vehicles, spraying all of the working parts and nuts, bolts, and screws so that there's no rust down. And in Michigan, we have a big problem with that. One of our guys has a bunch of Colorado trucks like we have our Texas trucks. and religiously before the season begins for these salts slinging in Michigan acid for blood. He coats the whole bottom side of his vehicles. He's doing that for a decade that I know of. And another person, well actually one of our other friends uses oil, crankcase oil, saves all the crankcase oil up. He doesn't use it for fire or anything else. He gets his kids, crawl up under there, of course they're getting bigger now, probably gets his grandkids, but gets up there first thing at the end of the fall season and, or I should say mid-fall, and paints the entire undercarriage with motor oil. Everything gets a generous coating of motor oil and puts cardboard under everything. Anything that drips down, rolls the cardboard up. puts that over into the toolbox furnace and you know for the shop and everything gets used up. Nothing goes to waste, doesn't make a mess. But the lubricant helps to push back on the high salt content issues we have if you're going to use your vehicle 365 days out of the year on a Michigan highway or road. just how it is and you need to think ahead. Another interesting thing with the, again, watch, keep an eye out. I got a bunch of canteen cups today, just an accident thing, same place I got the tools. And also some phenomenal historical stuff, a whole bunch. I've been running it too, of course, a lot of bicentennial stuff. People from that window of time are passing away or their states are popping up, they're going into, you know, whatever retirement. And I got some phenomenal pristine coffee mugs and such with impressed steel, well steel, but bronzed medallions for the Patriot years, you know, 1976 to, you know, 1976, really cool. And one of a kind, most people aren't thinking about it because they've been living with it or grown up with it, so stuff gets tossed and it's actually worth a little bit of money. So. I don't plan on getting rid of it because I'm planning on preserving it. I'll make sure it's somewhere else because it's obvious that I'm one of the targets when the times come. It could have been the last day or two here that are thinking about going after everybody here in Michigan. It's okay. We need to go to war. I don't have a problem with that. I think we should. I believe that whatever they want to start, we'll finish. But I also have to think ahead to protect some of the cool stuff that I found because It's historical and I collected it for a reason to preserve it and pass it on. So just something to think about there. A lot of stuff needs to be put aside right now, set out of the line of fire, just like your valuable, you know, caches in preparation for war so that you have them when you need them. Okay, and more on the cache in a minute too. Go ahead, call or jump in there. Hey Mark, this is Irish whiskey. Just wanted to mention what I found at Walmart clearance this week Check the hunting section because I found cellular game cameras 50% off so a hundred and twenty dollar cellular game camera for 60 bucks Yes, so they had one non cellular models for 40. That's all I have to say Excellent. Very good. Thank you for bringing that up And again, there's a little bit of a glut because they really pushed that last year. So the neat thing is you can run into deals like that. But Walmart is where he's talking about Walmart, guys. Check them out. They also have their quarterly cycle out. It doesn't seem like they're doing it the way they've done in the past. And it has nothing to do with COVID or, you know, the coronavirus virus scam. It has to do with... their policy and how they finally changed it, perhaps because somebody did some crunching of the numbers and realized, damn, we're losing a pile of money. Somebody might have actually realized just exactly how wasteful some of the stuff is that they were doing. Sadly enough, because we have been benefiting from that with regard to war materials. And again, preps and just basic material for all subjects you can imagine. Keep an eye on the clearance. One other thing about Walmart is they do strange things with clearance. You never know where it's going to be. But, you know, there's three basic models for the stores. Number one, it's up front when you come in the main door. Now, there may be another subsection way back in the back, like for the sporting goods, sometimes on the end caps with those types of stores. The other, there is a big ass section right beyond the cash registers. That's an island area. Well, usually just beyond the boots. And it's interesting how much stuff we've gotten out of those with regard to really good buys, great deals. And then the other is the clearances are in their respective departments and are just left in place, you know, with an end cap or something like that. So you have to know your store. Once you know what your store is doing, it's pretty consistent. with Walmart, but there are differences. Even though they have big stores, middle stores, small stores, that doesn't seem to make any difference. It really does, it's not part of the formula. It's a flavor choice. Maybe they're given a certain option with construction. If you were going to management, you'd know more about it. And so they configure accordingly, you know, as they choose. The big thing is they want to do want to keep track of inventory. So it's obvious that they would be making the effort to do the right thing, well you would think. But clearance has gone, have not gone down as deep as they were also. They're not as cheap as they have been in the past. But they're still good deals. So as is pointed out, 50% off on the game cameras, yes. One nice thing about that is remember you can leave those as first tier. If the bad guys figure out where they are, we don't have as much money into them. Do you really care what happens to them? No, great. You don't want to throw money away. But the neat thing is you can afford to put sacrifice units up that can actually be tripwires unto themselves. Now, when I say tripwire, I'm going to remind you something. Just because you set it up to let you know that something's going on, don't jump on the four-wheelers and go charge it out in the middle of BFE because you could be moving out into a trap slash an ambush. Instead, prior to proper planning prevents piss poor performance, pay attention when you're moving. Utilize overwatch cameras so that you can identify what might be out there waiting for you. This is especially critical. And again, prior to proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Overwatch when you are mechanized, just as Overwatch when you are infantry. The other thing, when you get to the area of interest, spread out. My God, I've seen so many cluster screws, especially in videos where people are responding to stuff that you see in these drama videos that are on YouTube or one of the other services. Guys spread out and learn to take position automatically. This is part of the team team and leadership mechanism One person if there's only four each should be observing a quadrant of their own while moving into an area that has a threat disposition And again, if you have a second element that can overwatch your first, have them hang back, but have them observe not just to the front where you're moving, but their area of operation, 360 degrees as you'd be panning and scanning. Always remember that. The technology's good, but your enemy is creative too. Not that they're the smartest, you know, on the block, but they are conniving. So let's, you know, keep it in mind. We're going to be dealing with conniving minds that are going to try to do harm to you. Our job is to do great harm to them first, exterminate all of them, strip the enemy dead, take what you find, including intelligence, and go down the road and hunt the bastards that sent these bastards to find you. And kill them all. Just all there is to it. Get rid of every last one of them. That's the most important aspect of the mission. Make sure you get them all. And when you got all that are right in front of you, go find the other ones that aren't right there in front of you because they're part of the problem too. Prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Another thing here real quick. Well, we're at 20 minutes after. Also, don't forget freeze dried food. Now they don't have much and I just checked them Walmart yesterday. in the afternoon before we actually came up on the program just to see what they had laying around. The freeze dried foods seem to have disappeared from some of the stores, which I think is interesting because it has been a regular fare for quite some time. Not everybody has it, but those that do typically also have been cycling down, in other words, doing the clearance that was just talked about to move product out but bring new product in. Now, what was really kind of comical with the freeze dried is The freeze-dried shelf life is indefinite and the shelf the shelf-outdate life is nowhere near anywhere that would justify clearing it. But because of the nature of the zombie-esque inventory system that Walmart has, a lot of this stuff gets kicked out the back door as clearance or thrown out and destroyed, which is not good, but if that happens too, oh well, that's their problem, not ours. The big thing here is that That seems that the freeze dried because they didn't have it moving as fast or maybe the sources of dried up that are reasonably priced within the parameters of Walmart Maybe they just can't get it. I don't know. I mean a lot of people can't so they've discontinued in most of the stores the freeze-dried food that was in the sporting goods section And so that is something, if you do spot it, pay attention, go look in the clearance section. A lot of that, about 50% of whatever they were bringing in, was ending up in the clearance department. So definitely a double plus good thing if you can take advantage of that. And again, what's the shelf life of freeze dried? Indefinite, we don't know. And it's not because they haven't tried, it's just that it is the nature of freeze dried food. And again, with a packaging system, it's so optimal. that it has an indefinite storage life. So this is why, as I've said many times on the air, that's the last food that you eat. You don't go, oh, freeze-dry, because I feel bored with my, no you don't. Oh, so you're bored with what you've been eating. Oh, well, the hell with that garbage. Don't open up those freeze-dry units until very last. Why? As long as you don't disturb them, move them around, bounce them a lot, how can they actually go bad? And if you're smart, you won't move them around a lot. You're going to leave them right where they are, stored underground or under basements, whatever, in a nice climate or semi-climate controlled environment. They will sit there and stare at you indefinitely. Now, it doesn't mean you aren't going to eat them. It just means that you got a lot of the stuff needs to be eaten first and... Food fatigue has nothing to do with the formula. I want to remind you that I was heard that oh eating the same thing over and over again Yeah, I can think of a lot of people who aren't eating anything shut up. Hey dad. Just shut up. Go ahead. We got a direct way Out in the back today, you know what I've been doing to earn a little extra money Found a new place that's pretty interesting down here geebo's low prices every day farm home pet and corving Walking into it's like walking into a tractor supply, but they have good prices They still have like the old prices on everything Which makes them definitely worth you know checking out? And they had an ammo tech if they have ammo cans a sporting section down here some other stuff I think some information on them. They also have their own line of gummies But what I'm calling in is while I was in there they had food dehydrators and food freeze dryers on sale. That's I don't know if that's just the gee boat. Yeah, I don't know if it's Just the gee-boas in our area if this is a chain or just something that's locally, but this was out in the middle of BFE dad. One of those situations where the GPS led me out, you know, when we say, will we get to your doom? The drop-off where they had me going was like literally I was at four corners and there was nothing but fields. And on the far end there was a farmhouse and there was like a warehouse on the other end. And that's what this was. Well, we definitely need more information on them because, and again, on that point, freeze, if you can pick up your own freeze dryer, it doesn't make any difference what amount it can freeze dry. That particular food process, in reality, is one of the best that we could possibly commit to. So any type of freeze dryers that are reasonably priced and again, you'll take a look here for for anything that does larger volume and I know a lot of people want to do quantity Your there's two things they make noise which doesn't bother me. I'm like I said, I'm tired of the panty waste. I mean, yeah, he makes noise Oh, would you shut up? I worked in a factory. I mean worked in factories and other situations Not the one mentioned the military with my god. Come on think about some of the equipment. We're around Oh wow, that makes a lot of noise. Oh my God, I'm peeing my pants, it makes so much noise. Oh my God. So freeze dryers definitely are a good solution. So yeah, Ed passed on the information. Send us the prices if you could. And for anybody else out there, we'll share them when we can. But what model so we can take a look at it, we'll probably commit to one of those, maybe two or three, depending on what they have on the shelf, of course. And the name of the company again is? It's off to the side there. I'm here. Gevos. G-E-D-O-P-O-T-S. Gevo! Oh, it's the band! The guys went out. Yeah, the band went out, so they ended up down in Texas. You know, are we not men? Are we not gevo? No, gevos. Gevos. G-E-D-S. Oh, gee, oh, I'm sorry. I thought you said D, Delta. No, gee. Gevos. Well, that's an interesting one. Jeevo. Well, maybe it's the other band that was competing against Jeevo and realized they had nowhere to go and their hardware looked like fun, so they moved sideways. You never know. Could be any number of reasons. But Jeevo. So, again, Jeevos, let's see what we can dig up on them. Because like you said, there's at least one. If there's one, there may be more. And again, This is something that isn't a surprise because some companies have run their course where originally they were a great idea and what happens is different people take over and they totally destroy the original concept of the store because they got a great new idea. It's not really a great new idea. It's just an idea. And what happened with Big Lot. Big Lot went from being a bulk surplus store, and I mean bulk as in in many cases depending on where you were in the country like here in Michigan, they carried open bin surplus items where they bought industrial items from the different companies out there depending on what they had and they'd offer that stuff up for a pretty reasonable price and it was you know grab it out of the box. Hot sauce by the pallets not by cases and counting only one case at a time. So yes, that's one thing that shows you that things have gone to hell in a hand card in general with most of these operations because If you're wealthy you can have lots of product on the shelf But if your country has the facade of wealth Well, then there's not so much on the shelf and that's exactly what you're seeing with pretty much everything around the country. So Again, it would be rather interesting to see how this develops or where they also do see where they came from, which I think would be fascinating. Any place like that, check the food, check the tools, and don't forget, paint is becoming ludicrously priced. I looked at $15 a can of paint yesterday with the new prices. Ed realized I'm not buying that paint real quick, okay? So, Ed, whatever. Well, they have some other interesting items in there, Dad. They were selling like pre-tied lassos and stuff for like doing big animals because well that's where they're at, you know. Right. A lot of tools that I didn't get to look long because I was trying to get back. Well I said I did a walk through the store. I did see something interesting like in the they had like a sportman's area. And there was one item that I might go back and see if I can buy one if they still have them there. There were Patriot ties, Dad. And it's those 12 things that Don Betcher taught me how to make that are technically illegal. Right. Patriot neck ties. Right. Well, that's rather interesting. So they're not very politically correct either. Hey, by the way, we really don't care what no, we really don't care. Well, but yeah my god, you know, she's got it No, you really don't care. What if you shut up? You buy if you want it if not move on We're gonna say something who cares. Well, that's what they were talking about was Patriot deck ties But it's like anybody who looks that do what that was that's a that's a pretty big, you know statement in and of itself Yeah, hold still we're gonna help you out Well, again, so that's in the Lubbock area, right? Yes, just south of Lubbock, literally. It's straight down slide where it starts to turn into, I'm not sure if they're doing cotton or what out there. Because I know that you start going that area, you've got cotton, a little wheat, but there's a point where it turns into peanuts. Right. Well, that's a cycle to remember cotton peanuts and then you do something in like a rye grass or you know like actually rye wheat. Well, rye, not rye wheat, but rye and that helps to you know build the soil back and there's a whole you know they have an actually they have a cycle. I don't know what they're doing with their fertilizers now because they can cut part of that too which is a cheat but oh well that happens. So again that would be worthwhile. One of the other things about the freeze-dried technology is again, you are still going to need consistent power. Don't forget that. Obviously, you're going to run machinery, so you have to make that part of your math formula for future activities. Having the energy, the capacity to operate the equipment as needed. That should be a high, high priority because food processing, next to your food processing is really where we need to be focusing now. If you've built up an inventory, fantastic, but you need to be ready when things run out, where will you go? What are you going to do? And so prior prepper planning prevents piss poor performance. We need to have production capacity in place now in preparation for that moment in time, because it's not an if, it's just a when that's going to happen. So remember that, not an if, just a when. Anyway, oh my goodness, we're at the bottom. Let's do this real quick. You are listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. Ed, I'll tell you what, if you could, let's pull up. The latest guns and gadgets first of all then we'll do a few songs here We got to go through our music request list. I got a case stay up on that you guys have been sending more downrange I got a couple of letters yesterday to appreciate that from Marge in Arizona and also Danny in South Dakota So we got your mail. Thank you. We appreciate that And again, for everybody, Guns N Gadgets is over on YouTube. Take the time, go over there, check out, see what they've got, what he's got posted, but also make a point of giving him a thumbs up and passing on, if you can, share the videos that are produced. That changes the numbers and that's all. Again, cost nothing. It's free. All you have to do is spend a little bit of time. And we appreciate it if you can pitch in. We don't get anything from Guns and Gadgets for that just in case. We must get some numbers. And it is Friday Tree Radio. That was Guns and Gadgets on YouTube. Please take the time to go over, subscribe, and give a thumbs up as you can. Mike and the Mechanics, silent running for our friends in South Dakota. We didn't forget you. Mike and the Mechanics. Silent running somebody said in the letter mark you haven't played that song in a while and can you play it? So I said yes, yes, we can but I was talking to the wall because it's a letter done for everybody out there It is Friday. We're headed in the weekend with the height of Camp Emory camp Emerson New Camp Stasa camp Wayland north the ogum arranges Nagi hitchum wolf and Fox And also Fort Benning, Michigan. We got a lot of activity up in Fort Benning, Michigan this weekend. It is fantastic and yes I was talking about Fort Hood. We're thinking about naming one of the other facilities that's the unnamed Fort Hood. So we're going to have a Fort Hood, Michigan. That's going to be cool. And again, big buildup. I'll explain something in a little bit here about a really cool kit. We started working on decades ago and we've developed it to the point where it's a package off the shelf science. It's so simple it's ridiculous for shelters and housing or for shelters and especially for covering supplies. Here the music will be back. The mechanics. You're on Liberty Tree Radio. the again silent running album, title Craig, silent running, Mike and the Mechanics. That was the mid-length version. There's three versions. They've got the full length with the extension, which is long and demi instrumental. Then you've got the version you just heard. Then you've got the shortcut version that was done when people have heard the song so much. And on radio, what they do is they have a shortcut version so that you can get it in there and fit more of what people have already heard. And they usually hear it and they get satisfied, but they may be like hearing it as background music. So they don't necessarily pay attention to the fact there's another minute or a minute and a quarter or a minute and a half shaved off the song. Did this all the time back in the day, guys. And that's why it's actually collectible. I have a collection here. I've mentioned this many times through this year. I bought a collection and I've been editing. I have to sit down for, oh, half an hour at a time and I have to plug the CD in. And I've been listening. And one of the things that I've gotten a big collection of are what are promo CDs. And these are not for resale. They have... or repeat of the song multiple times, but they have all three versions. They have the long full play with maybe an additional instrumental. They have the mid-play, which is the one you typically would hear 99% of the time on any radio. And even typically was on the album, but the long play might be on the last part of a flip on the albums on the old LPs. And then you have the short version for, okay, you got to punch a bunch of these in because you're promoting our record. And it goes to the radio station and they would flip a whole bunch of the compressed versions to get all of their obligations in with the network or with the record affiliate that they've got a contract with. It's kind of cool. I've got one of a kind of stuff that I've... It's been 50 years since I've heard it. What's really fascinating is I have a vast collection of live concert from pigeonhole locations. The old hole-in-the-wall bars and such that used to be all over the country. There's still some out there, but nothing like there used to be. And several locations are right here in Michigan and were classic. In fact, in Ann Arbor, Michigan, there was a hole in the wall bar that was multi-tiered. It went up because it was crammed into a stupid little business. I don't know how they held a fire. They got over the fire code. They probably bribed somebody or somebody in the city, you know, owned it. But it actually was opened up for three stories. So you were looking down and everybody from Bob Seeger to the three dog night to Pink Floyd to anybody you can imagine would show up there and what's funny is they always had a Gnome de Guerre for the different each band had its own Gnome de Guerre would use so people come in there sitting there goes that looks like Well, it looks like a big Floyd band, man. Now, we're not talking a big place. We're talking a place where literally if you stand on the second tier, they hold out each of the floors in the middle. So it was like a big globe amphitheater is what it was like on the inside. But everything was painted flat black, everything was subdued, and you'd look down on the band on the stage. And everybody you could think of showed up in that little hole in the wall at one time or another in a year. I ran into a place like that out in Arizona off Fort Wegotcha the same way. Sat down and lo and behold we had Fleetwood Mac out of the blue. We were like, oh, looks like Fleetwood Mac. Everybody's sitting there because we're just going something in the evening on a Friday. And usually it'd be a live band there and it was free. So it was like, okay, and all of a sudden it's like, that girl looks a lot like Stevie Nicks. Yeah, yeah, look at the drummer man. He looks all psychedelic out to you, dude. Like, is that who I think it is? And of course, on the marquee, they didn't have Fleetwood Mac. They had some off-the-wall name that was made up. But as soon as everybody started to see who it was, and again, once they started playing, there was no doubt. But it was obvious if you paid any attention to the artist. And people were running over to the telephone, didn't have cell phones back then, and they're calling their buddies, dude, get everybody over here, man. We want Max over here live. And it'd be like, whoa, no way. Yes way. Okay. So that's how it used to be. And a lot of the stuff was recorded because whoever owned the place was smart enough to have decent recording technology. A lot of that was unreal to real. In this case, the collection I captured was from a guy who, one of the things that he was doing is preserving by creating a CD library of all of the reel-to-reel cassette and all the other stuff that we, you know, even records, some are even custom-cut records. There used to be private record machines. You could buy just like tape recorders. Several of our people had them. That's how they were able to get, you know, in the old days before you had all the internet and everything else. And before cassettes, et cetera, guys, people used to cut records of speakers. And if you might, you might run into it once in a while, there'll be a burgundy-colored vinyl. If you ever see a burgundy-colored vinyl record, it literally will be burgundy. That's not a plumb. It's burgundy. It's the best way to describe it. Full-sized LP, 33 and a third. And those albums are all custom. If you ever run into those, they are worth money because you might have something here that no one else has. Dead cold serious. You want to make money? You want to buy the next AR-15 for free? Or so to speak. Somebody else paid for it. This is the kind of stuff you need to be cognizant of. So if you see any of these burgundy albums, they were typically cut in-house. In many cases, they were cut either at speakeasies or hole-in-the-walls like we're talking about. Or they were done in private session. And they were done for courtesy or for promotional purposes. In many cases, somebody wanted, hey, you know, you guys are here. Could you play some music for me? Well, sure, Bob. I can do that. Hold on. Let me get the machine set up. And they had a platter cutter right there. And they were privately owned. This is stuff you could buy put in your house the size of a stereo system about a chin-high stereo system is what they look like. Again old 50s to 60s or very early 70s didn't see much done in the 70s, but they were out there. So just a heads up on that. We're at the top and hopefully that makes our friends in South Dakota feel better. Mike and the mechanics silent running. We are at the top of the hour here. God bless our Republic. Death to the new. We shall prevail. Ladies and gentlemen, the Empire is on the run. We're on the march. We'll pay a night. Ooh-rah. Kick him in the slats. Beat him down hard. When they try to get back up, kick him in the head. Make sure they never get up again. We're going to war in 24, and we will win. And to do that, we've got to get rid of them. Anyway, we'll be back. Oh, grab a cup of coffee. Run, use the bathroom. It is the end of the first hour. It is Friday on Liberty Tree Radio. We'll be back. We're going farther. Oh, ho, ho. This is some special coffee Nancy made. Smell, taste, the deffreever of the coffee rolling around on the tongue. It is, of course, 50% of the espresso. Very fine espresso. And, of course, a very high grade of creamer. that one of our friends produces down the road with the cows by the way he owns the farm he owns the dairy and of course I had to have some of this because he just dropped them by so taste mmm mmm mmm and gentlemen this is the second hour of the afternoon intelligence report I'm our car key one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, North, West, and South. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org, and we are on satellite. Want to say hi to all our merchant marine operators out there. Know where your lifeboats are. Remember, The backstabbing Israelis are going to do something really wicked here pretty soon. If they haven't already, and they're just covering it up and waiting to throw it out there on the carpet. So pay attention and be safe. And we thank you again for your work. We're in a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. It is, oh, it has been a beautiful Friday and I'm inside and it's a beautiful Friday and I could be getting more done, but we have to do this. So guess what? If you get a chance, get back outside. My tasty friends. The beautiful spring air. We had first the air from the north. Now we have some coming off Lake Erie and it's clean. The air has been scrubbed. And now today, a beautiful bright day. It is, of course, Cinco Diamo Day. This is the day when the señoras, the señorita, the señoras, all of you will go to the gun shop and you will buy a pistola. or perhaps a rifle or perhaps a shotgun. But if you do, because it is Cinco di Amo Day. Today is the day when you must buy ammunition. And if you are not celebrating it, there is something wrong with you. For today is payday, perhaps. Take some of your centables, pesos, euros, maybe American gringo dollars and buy all the ammunition you can get your hands on. So anyway, it is Cinco di Amo Day. Aye, chindawa. So and again, that means it's the 10th of May it is the 16th year of open obvious and in your face Fabian socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a k2024 older calendar Give her all she's got captain hundred and twenty-five percent She'll blow up any minute course. I'm lying. We actually can go 150, but that's okay. It makes everybody think what did he say in the movie? I'm a miracle worker bloody hell So anyway, that means it is the 16th year of Open Obvious and In your face Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K Absolutely Make no mistake about it with what you saw yesterday and today in Congress Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist Occupation of America with a K. I cannot emphasize that enough 2024 battle for the Republic the dance of swords, of course, so What a beautiful day. Let's see, songs. I was trying to think of some new stuff we could put out there. Taking the overseas, slow down, you're shooting too fast. You gotta make your ammo last. Kicking up the cobblestones. Shooting the commies and feeling in the notch and groovy. Especially if you have a K-98 Mauser. If you have one of those beautiful Swiss K or M31s. Guess what? You know, notch and groove. Get it? I want to bring that up because you don't need to put optics on those rifles. But if you do, yeah, they're even more of a thing. They will, the performance will, of course, be fantastic. But there's a ton of these K43s, or forgive me, the 31s coming in right now. And you're going all the way back to the earlier model and variants that are pre-1898, no FSL. all the way through to the post-World War I models and variants, which they produced all through actually I think what, up to the 40s at least, maybe the, and I'm probably wrong, closer to the 50s. The Schmidt-Rueben straight pulls in whatever variant are heavier than Zinn. I was going to say something really great there for them. No, they're heavier than since. They really are. They're a beast rifle to carry. They are built like a brick doghouse. Most everything Swiss made during that, you know, the philosophy was they were going to pass it off to the next generation. Well, they did. And this stuff is just phenomenally engineered. The metallurgy was fantastic. There are stripper clips. Now most people don't realize this. I was buying them years ago and nobody thought about it because nobody wanted them. I used to go to the different wholesalers and they would always have cases, boxes of loose Schmidt-Rubin stripper clips. They're a little different. They were non-strategic material. They didn't make them out of metal. They do make a metal stripper clip and you can buy them with the stripper clip guides, but there is a non-strategic material guide stripper clip that was an ammo carrier mechanism and they were pennies. They weren't even pennies. I think I get ten for, you know, like five cents at one time. So we piled them up because he's, well, we got some at Rubens. I just don't have any, but somebody does. They'll take them. I took them with all bunch of other stuff. And, well, now there's so many of these Schmidt Rubens out there that, because as you've seen those stripper clips and Mann-Lincher stripper clips and everything have gone stupid price, you can make money hand over fist on the accoutrements. I mean hand over fist. But if you're going to buy one of those Schmidt Rubens, there are still a few niches, a few holes, places where those stripper clips are actually cheap. And most people don't even realize they're there. Like I've said, a lot of these companies buy arms and ammunition and pieces and parts. And some of the stuff they get when they buy out a gun shop or a store are things they don't really normally carry. They're not interested in. They have a lot of them. They're going to throw them out. They've got a good price on them. They sell a few. They can pay for all. And then everything else is profit. Well, now those things have become goofy profit. OK? This is like World War II stuff. Now Vietnam stuff is going the same way so and again, it's far enough in the taillights we'd expect that now the Schmidt Rubens one really cool thing about them if you get a chance to take a look at the rifle if one of your friends has one and you should familiarize yourself with the Schmidt Rubens straight pull rifle because there are a lot of them out there now they're in the 7.5 swifts which is a 30 caliber load. Basically, its counterpart is a 7.62x51 NATO. There was a period of time when one company, and it was a precision machining company, so they did really good work, were actually re-chambering the Schmidt Rubens from the 7.5 to other cases. And because of the quality of the barrel is so phenomenal, the only thing you had to watch is that I believe that there was a short period when they were doing a stellite type liner for the barrels. If you're familiar with that, guys, you're not machining that. That was a very rare item. And these were Marksman's guns. There's a special whole history on those that they cropped up back in the early 80s. as surplus, but they're out there and it's more likely you'll probably see one of those nowadays. But 7.5 Swiss is out there as surplus a little bit and it's typically, everybody considers it match great ammunition, rightly so because the ammunition is, the Swiss don't do anything cheap. And the quality of their ammunition is phenomenal, okay? However, I would not shoot the military ball ammo. Once again, Mark will tell you to save it. You may want to grab a box, sandbag the gun, and find out where it prints with that ammunition so you can understand and relate to it. But if I was doing any regular shooting with a Schmidt Rubin for training to give people some live fire experience, I go to aimsurplus.com and pick up PPU 7.5 Swiss. It's as cheap as anything else out there that PPU makes. They do offer it both in ball and I have seen it in soft point. It's again an excellent solution. You shoot for a particular rifle, make sure you reload for that rifle and it's a lot easier to reload. Take the brass, mark the box for that rifle and keep shooting it out of that weapon and you'll get more life out of the reloaded brass. First rule, more shooting, less cost. Okay. The Schmidt Rubens though, take a look at the muzzle crown. Now this is something I've talked about a lot because most of your K98 Mausers, be they the Czech, Polish or German, and of course there's Spanish out there, a lot of Spanish. Right now there's some Spanish surplus showing up because that's coming from the Ethiopian hordes. The cash is there. Most of the Mauser types use what is a ball crown. Now what do I mean by that? Well if you're looking at it from the side, it looks like, if you look at the barrel, get up close, it looks like from the side like half a donut. In other words, cut half a donut, put that on the end of a tube, and that's what the crown looks like on the typical Mauser rifle. And the crown, where the half of the donut is cut on the inside circle there, that's where the rifling ends. Now, what happens with most rifles, no matter how hard you try, and one of the reasons that people go, it's an old rifle, it's not shooting. Well, you don't know anything about gunsmithing or you don't think about the guns, so you're thinking that because it's got an issue that you can't fix it. You can back set your crown in it very quickly and bring and tighten that barrel right back up with whatever rifling is left in it. Now, rifling is the other half of the formula, but a lot of the Euro guns, especially the K98s, have very deep lands and grooves. The Polish Mausers especially were good for that. Along with the Czechs, they were all competing against the K98 Mauser in Germany for marketing overseas. Well, the Schmidt Rubens weren't really marketer overseas. They were just making them for themselves. But if you look, they did a canted crown, and there's a reason for that, to reduce the possibility of wear and tear on the crown with cleaning of the weapon, because that's really, it's not the bullets that get you. It is the repeated cleaning which is necessary and was traditionally necessary for the last hundred years because of corrosive ammunition. Now because of this, most of these countries made crown protectors and they're still out there. You can still find them. Your SKS carbine and AKA if you got the Chinese or if you got the Romanian cleaning kit for the SKS or the Bulgarian. Have you looked to see how that cleaning kit works? You have a crown protector part of your cleaning kit that little module when you click take it apart remember part of it's a handle but part of it if you'll notice there's a hole and it's dimpled in a particular way and You actually have a little set of claws And if you look you can take that little cap that's only about what maybe an inch long Or maybe not even 3-quarters of an inch. You have to double measure it again. But anyway, you put that on the end of the muzzle, you click it into place to the site. Congratulations, you now have a ramrod guide that takes the abuse instead of the crown of your rifle. Have you ever used that when you've cleaned your weapon? Well, here's a little hint. You should. Now, they make a variety, and I believe, and I was slightly in the microphone, I could be wrong. I think. that over at JGSales.com if you've got the Spanish Mausers or the M95 Steyr Strait Poles which are Austrian, Austro-Hungarian or anything like that, there are a number of guides out there. They're wood handled. They actually look like a screwdriver handle, a very nice wooden screwdriver handle. They have a shaft hole in the middle. They also have a knuckle slash a lock point at the other end and this goes over the muzzle of the rifle. Once that little notch is parallel with the front sight, you just turn it sideways and that locks it onto the rifle. Very simple. And most important is that the metals that were typically used are also softer non-aggressive metals for the guides. So the cleaning rod, of course, the guide should be taking the abuse if it were to wear out. It's a penny item. It's a trinket item. The barrel is a significant component of the weapon, right? So you don't want to wear that down. So heads up, again, these are simple little tools that were built for most, all the firearms out there. JG sales, the one that they have, I think will fit the M95, but it'll also fit a lot of the other earlier mousers. Pre-98s especially, so you might want to experiment if you've got a bunch of Model 91s, Model 93s, Model 95s, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. You might want to check that out because again, a lot of the Spanish M1916s are coming out right now that are basically a Model 93. And the neat thing about these is that, again, they're not looking too shabby. But let's protect them because they are as old as they are, and they have seen some miles sometimes. You can of course fix the crown if you have to experiment, but you might not have to so let's protect it so it doesn't wear down. Go ahead, call or jump in there, please. Hey Mark, it's John from Kentucky. I use a, I think it's a 243 case cut in half in a 30 caliber. The neck fits right into the barrel, you know, and then the ramrod goes through the center of it. Over. Exactly. Because again, the brass, it will wear out, but the brass is not going to be abusive to the barrel. It's going to absorb and prevent any chafing or wear on the muzzle crown. And again, the price is right, what you're doing. And you can create them. Remember, just experiment with whatever case out there fits, break out your drill index and match up accordingly for the hole for your ram rod or for your cleaning rod. Forgive me. Go ahead. I just cut the case in half. I sacrifice one case. It's the cheapest and easiest. Put two on your cleaning box and forget about it. I'm out. Yep, exactly. Thank you again. Well improvised the depth and overcome good solution I think one of the big things here again is the Swiss rifles actually do come with an in their kit and you might notice The for $10 this is there's still a steal right now you can get these Swiss Army cleaning kits. They are they have a black handle. It's actually a plastic handle They're a very well constructed cleaning kit. They're built for 30 caliber because, oh, that's right. The Schmidt Rubens are 30 caliber. So you can get a phenomenal cleaning kit that you wouldn't just use on the 30 caliber, you know, the K31s, but you can use it on all the rest of your 30 caliber weapons. So there's all kinds of neat solutions out there. All of them work. All of them are good. So take advantage of them while you can. And again, that's a simple solution there. The big thing is that when the brass wears out, take that piece of brass, throw it over into your scrap pile. Don't ever throw it away. And find yourself another piece, modify accordingly, and you're back in business. And so again, repeat, repeat, repeat. The one thing I brought the the other thing about the sires is everybody has been asking me about this. You know, what do you think about them? They're heavy I mean, I'm gonna tell you if you haven't picked up a That's the first thing everybody says when they've you know ordered one. I've noticed this. Oh, we're kind of heavy Well, yeah, they're an infantry rifle Remember they weren't concentrating on volume fire But you can get a great deal of volume fire going with a straight pull gun once you get used to it And what we say by straight pull, guys, you just grab the charging, you grab the bolt handle, pull straight to the rear. Once you've pulled it all the way to the rear, jam it forward with significant force. Next round is picked up. Aim, boom. The Steyr straight pull works the same way and right now there are a bunch of Steyr straight pulls in the full Gewehr or long rifle over at Royal Tiger imports. Now that's a totally different weapon from the, that's the Austro-Hungarian M95. That rifle had a number of developments just like the Schmidt-Rueben and it stayed in service for about the same period of time. In fact, even up until just a little bit ago, the reason you're seeing some of these that look like they've been in an arsenal, not in the desert in Ethiopia, or I should say the dry popcorn fart era of Ethiopia, is because there are still caches of these things around in Europe and they've been, you know, putting them out there. And actually, I think it's the Rent-A-Revolution companies. Up until the A90s, or actually back in the 90s, the Rent-A-Revolution companies were selling the styrostrace bulls to African natives to defend themselves from the other tribes who bought AKs. Or they just bought the styro, because it was, they bought them because they were cheap. They probably got them for about anywhere from three to seven dollars a gun over-the-counter retail. But which is a big chunk of money for people who are dirt poor in Africa But they also could get ammunition where not all ammunition was available for more modern guns So the Steyr, the ammunition all coming in stripper clips was purchased in big quantity and it was used as a local or tribal defense gun for quite some time. Still hanging around out there. Problem, they do require stripper clips if you want to use the mag. So when they lost the stripper clips, if they weren't paying attention, it's a single shot rifle. Other things about the Swiss Schmidt Ruben, it will reach comfortably with iron sights a thousand yards. Comparatively speaking, it's as good as a many match grade Springfield that you're going to run into or a match grade M1A or M1 Grand as an average rifle. The performance on these things has been fantastic because first of all, they were well maintained by the population. They have a deep, they have had a deep Ordnance Support System for the Civilian Marksmanship End, which is what everybody is a part of. Everybody's supposed to be in the militia in Switzerland. And so these guns actually have been well maintained as either cash guns that were hidden away by the population. They're given to the people by the government. They're told to hide them so we can't find them. Oh, you thought that they hit him from the government because the government is going to come and confiscate him. No, the government gave him to him and told him that we better not be able to find these easily because when the other side shows up, they're going to want to try and steal them from us. So let's make sure we've got all the guns out where we need them, which is what they did. So that's why these things have never really fully been withdrawn. And you still see videos of a lot of the Swiss shooting the Schmitts on the range, the Schmitt Rubens on the range on a regular basis. with you know the younger adults firing and operating newer weapons that they've been issued but usually if you see them on the range they have a Schmidt a 22 of some kind and and again the issue wet rifle that they have to qualify with If not more, I mean they're doing the same thing we do Would you carry it to keep you alive? Well, yeah, I'm going to tell you right now, the Schmidt-Rueben rifles that are out there, I'm sure I could probably take it, like I said, like the M14 to about 700 yards of the iron sights comfortably, 750, and the rifle's fully capable of it. I have not seen a bad one yet. I've not seen an abused Schmidt-Rueben. I've seen abused everything else but because these all were held by the pasty-faced white people of Switzerland, you know, the white people took care of what they had and maintained it. It's just that simple. And so what you're seeing coming out are decent. Now, it's a bastard caliber. I'm going to say it's an orphan caliber. You're not going to find anybody carrying 7.5 Swiss. Nobody. But if you're an American Defense Force and you also like to collect guns, it's an effective weapon. You just need to buy dyes. Make sure you buy all the brass that can be reloaded you can. Go to AIM surplus, buy PPU, and buy a lot of it. But also watch for the Swiss 7.5 ammunition that pops out here and there and buy a case or two of it at a time. Usually a case. It's in the black milk carton cardboard containers. They're heavily waxed. It has a black outer coating or it's just a black outer coloring for the cardboard. It is very waterproof. We're very well packed, quite intricate. And again, in most cases also was in a transport can. Mostly when it got here, they dumped the transport can and sold it separately. You know, people trying to make as much money off whatever was imported. And so the transport cans, you can find them, the proper can for that ammunition in the bricks that it's made in. But it's few and far between, and it's not collectible. I mean, they are considering it collectible. That's the problem. So it's not worth it if you're paying an ungodly amount. You can make it work, make that ammunition work with other cans. So I just go with a can that's closer to the mark and be done with it if you're gonna think about putting it in separate ammo cans, which you should by the way. They were at the bottom of the hour. Okay, we had two people. We already took care of the Dakotas. So for everybody out there, you're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. We're headed in the weekend. I want to say hi to Camp Emory, Camp Emerson, New Camp Stasa, Camp Wayland North, where all the work was done earlier this year and it's paying off. Let's see the Ogama ranges, Naga-Hitcham, and especially Naga-Hitcham is busy this weekend, Fox-Wolf and new Fort Benning, Michigan, along with the Rustics, but the Rustics are going to start changing names here pretty soon. They aren't just dots on the map. And I was going to talk about temporary or cheap structure construction that you can do anywhere. Actually, you can make it a kit. More on that in a minute because I've got to make sure I put that out this hour. Anyway, Ed, if you could, let's see what was the first request here that we had. We covered the one, so we got the mic and the mechanics out of the way. Let's do, I got three here, let's do, oh, you know what, I'm gonna do, this is one, somebody else mentioned this in random today, it's one of those matrix things. It's an attitude song, okay? And you might recall the John Wayne movie, North to Alaska. Johnny Horton north to Alaska Ed if you could play that although that's for our friends way down in the south in the southwest Okay, probably heading up to Alaska or something. No, you just like the song. Okay. I appreciate that So north to Alaska Johnny Horton, you might recall the song was the theme for a John Wayne movie by the same title north to Alaska. I'm pretty sure that was the name of it matter of fact And you are listening to us on LibertyTreeRadio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. Don't forget we're also on 6th. This is going to keep me happy too. Johnny Horton, we weren't sure who had done this originally because I pulled it out of another inventory. for all of you that are mechanized this weekend. We're pulling out all the stops and all the activity we've had around the state. Everybody figures keep your best weapons close to you and make sure that they're squared away and ready to fight. So we are in battle mode this weekend for training and that means all our mech heads will be out there. Some of you have been with the Gary Owen. So for everybody again, here we go. A fighting song live. and then you read and help me with the core. It's set as long as... Sit to the chopper. And don't forget, we will be, in fact, in Southern Michigan. We have an Air Mobile unit that we'll be deploying this weekend, and we are going to be working on our... coordinated ground and air tech in the Lenaway County area and also in Ohio. So we will be down that neck of the woods with a small ab section, should be three OH-58s, and we have one UH-1 that's going to be participating. Also a bunch of our little crotch rocket, uh, mosquito helicopters. And this will be, of course, in conjunction with some of the CMM units in Northern Ohio. So you guys, we're going to stop in. Don't worry, you're not that far away. We're going to be stopping in. I don't know what day, but we will be there because it's just fun. And also 18th regimental combat team, Colonial Marine Militia Mechanize. You guys will be out there. That's Gary Owen. That's why the Gary Owen theme is again part of the repertoire for today and the 18th, which are my guard as a matter of fact. And I want to say thank you guys. I appreciate the The honor that you give me been a while But we are adding a few more vehicles to the inventory that We have dug out of mothballs. Remember there's a collection about a month and a half ago We found took time to get the rest of everything We don't move stuff until we know for sure what we've got, you know, what happened to something And it turned out with one of the vehicles we had a transmission issue that was locked up. That's why it was parked, which was not surprised. It's a tracked vehicle, which means it's, you know, you ever tried dragging a rock that weighs like, you know, 13 tons. You know, and so instead, how about we be smart? So the wrench heads all got in there and it turns out that it was simply transmission follies that we see with vehicles of the type that were resurrecting. In this case, it's an assault. It's an odd man out because I can't even recall the nomenclature for the vehicle. There were a bunch of them in the southern part of the state. We have more than one of these that we have found. But it was an assault gun version of the chafee. Now, if they made these things, their serial numbers are not XM. The serial numbers are M's which means that you know, usually the government does is so by a vehicle they put a series of them into service and they call them an XM model Sometimes like with trucks it can be 500 of them and they're still experimental because they're gonna tweak the design So they put them into service and let us beat them to death and then they figure out what broke and then they change it and then they make it the M model well, it's interesting these vehicles which I've cracked the history down of forgive me off the top of my head they had A main gun was a Hawitzer, typically they're there. But they were in the Chafee 105s, by the way, just to let you know, they're a 105 Hawitzer. But they were our answer to the Stungeschutz Hawitzer variant and its open hull. There are a lot of vehicles like this built during the middle end of the war. In this case, very nimble, very easy to work on. Later on, after the World War II, European countries developed the overhead cover and armor for them, so mimicking that is your best bet. In this case, for what we plan on using it for until it dies, whatever, The price was right. It's a gimme thing. We already have it. So anyway, we got that dragged out. You might see that this weekend. I don't know if the guys have rebuilt the trans. In this case, it's a Chrysler transmission. I don't know why, because I know that there have been others. I know a lot of those were Dodgems, and a lot of them were Ford. So apparently Chrysler, which is big here in southern Michigan, northern Ohio. back in the day. These were built here and, or at least the rebuild of the upper hull was done here. And these vehicles are still dotting on the map. We're still finding them. They run like a rape date. Once they're put together, everything's squared away. They are a phenomenal piece of equipment. They're actually pretty nimble and they're good for speed. So... Again, thank you to the guys and Double Plus Good. If I dig up another sanctuary of iron dinosaurs, we're pulling them into service, you know that. Now, real quick, I want to talk about something else here. And this is, of course, over the weekend, you can even experiment a little bit. As Ed knows, we built greenhouses. We started out doing a design that somebody else had been putting out on information bases like YouTube. And it was like, interesting, but what can we do to make it better? And we did, we started playing with it. We originally the design called for using VisiQueen, which it is you make a frame out of one inch PVC pipe. You take 10 foot pieces of PVC pipe, you use a normal joiner, a straight joiner is what was originally proposed, which works. And what you do is create ribs every two feet. You can make it as long as you want. And every two feet, what you do is make another rib. Now, the way to do this is you either you can use, say, half inch or used iron pipe. You can use rerod or I should say reinforcing, rebar. You can buy it in sections which are actually just exactly what you want from any of the big box stores. You go over to their hardware section. We should say their raw material section. or you can cut them, you can find scrap later on, which is what we do. And what you do is you map it out first by creating a rectangle the size that you want. Again, the idea behind this is you're creating a Quonset hut. So what you want is an arc, basically a half circle. And the idea behind this is that you have a uniform material you can purchase anywhere, 10 foot pieces of PVC pipe. The joiners are minimal cost because it's a straight jointer originally. In addition to that, the VisiQueen was off the shelf and to keep the VisiQueen in place. Now this design is still not bad. You take one and a quarter inch PVC pipe, cut it into four inch or five inch sections, and then what you do is map out, you make a jig if you want, which is actually quite easy to do, and you cut about a fingers width, any finger will do, but about a fingers width, a little more or a little less, no not less, more. Actually you can do almost, one and a quarter you do actually, now one large thumb, let's do it that way. You cut that much out of it lengthwise, round the corners, after you cut the pipe, take a grinder and round them out, use a standard, round them out. And what you have are clips to hold the VisiQueen in place. So you can use canvas, you can use VisiQueen, and the one and a quarter PVC pipe internal dimension matches the one inch external. So when you clip it on, it locks into place, especially when it has a load, an additional material filling out the dimension when you clip these things together. Initially we did the VisiQueen. Later on, we started experimenting with other materials. I mean, after all, we want it kind of to be semi-permanent. The greenhouse is built this way. You also need about the four-foot mark or five-foot mark, five-foot even because that's halfway up the height of the PVC pipe on the inside. You need a crossbar. Now, the first thing that was recommended, and it actually is pretty cool, is cement. fascia bars that you use for screwing to cement to create a mock steel stud for installing drywall or whatever else you want in a basement or a cement surface area. You can use it for a lot of other projects. Now this is actually like a U-channel. And it was cheap, used to be cheap. It disappeared from the market for a while. I mean, when I see disappeared, people told me that the thing, that the hardware never existed. And you could buy this material at any common hardware in the country. But newer people who had no clue about hardware and had no clue of history would tell you that, oh, you know, they never made anything like that. There's nothing available yet. Then I went to another part of the industry and thought it was still there. Now, the steel channel is 10 foot long. You're going to need a couple of those for each side, but it varies depending upon what are you building. Now, if you want to make a longer greenhouse using these PVC pipe, they're cheap. Now, first question we have is how do they hold up? Well, they actually hold up quite well. In fact, we had the first prototype up for two years, and the only thing that really took a meeting was the VisiQueen. Using other materials, this is the next step. Since you know that you have a 10-foot high PVC pipe, and let's say that I don't need a clear surface, but rather I'm trying to make a... How about a protective overhead shed to cover... How about small tractor or maybe a piece of equipment? You map out the same greenhouse format. You make it 10-foot long or make it 20-feet long. Wait a minute, Mark. Why didn't you just go somewhere in between? Here's why. And I'm abbreviating this. If you go to buy vinyl siding and you want to purchase vinyl siding, it comes in one box that it will cover one 10 foot height times a 10 foot length. Well, or whatever length you buy your vinyl siding in because you can get that in different lengths. So the interesting thing is, is since you know that every two feet you're going to put up a rib, you're going to put your crossbar on the inside. What's really great about this is you use all the same material used for vinyl siding finishing. You get a tractor edge for the base. You screw that in. A couple of screws per each of the PVC pipe. And now you have a guide. And then all you do is take one panel of vinyl siding out, click it into place. screw it into the PVC pipe across the whole length. In other words, from left to right. Grab it on the piece, click it into place. You know how quickly you can put this up? How durable is this? Well, by the way, now we do both sides. We get all the way to the top. What are we going to use for a cap? Well, amazingly enough, I found that what really works well as a cap are the corner guides. Now, it doesn't have to be the same color, and I try to find at resale points like, let's see, Habitat for Humanity, but I also look for throwouts or tossouts or returns from menards, loaves. Some have them, some don't, so you figure out who does and who doesn't, or look for odds and ends, pieces from friends. Are you talking about dry, small corner beads, Mark? No, no, no. Or some other type of corner like this. Plastic, vinyl side corner bead that's used in corners. And that becomes a natural crown for the building. Think about it. It's peaked. And it has two sides. And what you do is lay that down along the top, and everything comes right up to that 10-foot mark, locks right into where that other piece is overlapping, and you have yourself a small vinyl-sided PVC tube building that will hold up to a Michigan winter. How do we know this? Because we built them, we built it, and it did. Now, if you put your little guide bar on the inside just a little higher than four feet, in other words, you want it to the bottom rail of your two horizontal bars for support. The lower part of it is at 4 feet, just at 4 feet, maybe a little higher than that much by maybe an eighth of an inch. You can then buy 4 by 8 sheets of polyvinyl, take your pick, plastic, whatever, and screw that into the lower surface. It will arc and will cover efficiently and help to reinforce that outer arc. And you've got yourself one hell of a strong structure. But before you put that inner panel in, go buy yourself some inexpensive Styrofoam, cut it to fit within the two-foot distance, you know, less than two feet of the PVC pipe. Insert that. Now remember, you can buy that in 8-foot and 10-foot sections. So if you're smart, you might buy 10-foot sections, cut them the width between the two PVC pipe, slide them into place. You don't have to glue them or anything. And then take that inner panel, screw it into place, and you have a very rigid lower base that will handle weight because remember, we're in Michigan. We get snow. Now, did I leave the ends open? Well, yes, you can. However, what I did with our greenhouse is I took leftover two by twos, that's a little heavier than the PVC pipe, but literally, designing it after a quonset hut, a standard quonset hut, I took a little throw out windows from a couple of campers that somebody got rid of and put out by the road, which have louvers, made a frame to fit those at one end. I made a frame for a standard size, biggest screen drawer I could find. And you got to make sure, remember, for height, it's got to be able to fit the space that you have with the arc of the roof, the arc of the PVC pipes. The neat thing about this is that you can use either a 2x2 or you can use PVC pipe But you have to be willing to you know calculate and cut your little tapers on either end you want to cut little arcs into the pipe You line them up you screw it in place on either side and by the way what kind of screws I use a pan self tapping wide head sheet metal pan screw because it offers more reinforcing it catches more you don't need a washer you can put washers on them I try to use stainless why well because I might want to take it apart I don't want it to fall apart right away. Amazingly enough, we had one that we put up like this for two years, and what killed it was the tornado that hit us. And even then, one of the branches had come down and crushed it and damaged it. Now parts of it did get pulled away to Oz. But considering that it had been up for two full Michigan winters, this very simple design doesn't rust, doesn't corrode, doesn't break down. You don't even care. Okay, you know, for instance, if I wanted to get out of the weather, Michigan rain being what it is like we had the last couple days, the neat thing is that even with the ends open, this is a very efficient, simple design that allows you to put equipment, material, supplies out of sight, out of mind. Now, other tricks, what can you do? Well, number one, you can gravel the inside of the area so that you got, you know, again, a surface area. You want to kill off the grass if you can, scab it off, you know, and then fill with pea gravel or limestone or whatever you want. That's one solution. Or maybe one you want to keep in place first, but then you can put, as you collect stuff that's being thrown away, you could use pallets and pallet the floor and then cover it with a plywood or whatever materials you have. And now you have a standoff from the ground, so you're not in contact with that. You have good drainage. Again, if you do it with materials you don't care about, if it is something that eventually gets tired, you just drag it all out, sort of burn it in the fire pile for the, you know, the campfire, and put another batch down. So this is a very simple building. This is what we're going to be putting up at the new Fort Benning site. In fact, I've been shopping around and looking around and for instance for $100 at one of the lumber companies here, they had five full cases of returned vinyl siding from a contract. They had the corrugated Eve panels. They have the guide panels and the corner panel, the corner slips, everything I was talking about to put, you know, put away, you know, a little project together like this, but any, I think, else can be done with it too, but it's $100 for everything. And you know what's really cool? It's in, like, grass green. It's in a grass green. It's not in just the regular pack colors, which really isn't a problem because the colonial gray green, you know gray green or gray are actually great field colors and a lot of the vinyl siding colors that are out there that are factory standard, you know red's not a really good choice. Barn red isn't really needed but the other field grade field colors or earth colors are perfect for tactical deployment. Now, one of the things I did experiment with, I used the colonial blue, I used the gray, and I used the medium loam green siding from down the road, and I created a camouflage pattern using the vinyl siding. So it disrupted it because it wasn't a solid color.
