In this the land of the free is the land of the free is home of the brave. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate, and your Christian values can't be taught according to this state. You read about the current use in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm and keep our country deep in death. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit them so their children will be... Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? Those sons of the Republic arise. Take a stand. Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republic and each God-given right. And pray to God as Iowoki vanished in the midst of the ones he came. His words were true, not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each God-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. I stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep. What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? And good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the hour of the Intelligence Report. I'm our corny. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories East, South, Northwest and Northeast. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we are on satellite, hi to all of our friends out there both receiving and then, multiply, repeating, sending, and sharing, analog and digital. We're on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States, and it is Wednesday! It's Weapons Wednesday, WW, Weapons Wednesday. It is the 29th of January. It is the 17th year of open, obvious, and in your face, Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist occupation of America with a K2025 old earth calendar. Given Molshes got Captain 125% and, hmm, 2025, Battle for the Republic book to the winter war but it's warming up outside. It's like we're in Michigan. Yes, it has warmed up a little bit. And we have more green grass exposed for the goats, which is good. They're nibbling wherever they feel like it. The ducks are happy too. Got a little bit of water on the ground. Again, some of the ice will be broken up. Unfortunately, as I was talking to one of our ice fishermen, It may get a little warmer tomorrow, or even talking about RAIN rain. It's that window of time, although it's early by five or six days. Normally we get this around the 6th of February. But that's roll of the dice and planetary alignment and all the other fun things. Don't put it in your cold weather gear way because it's the roller coaster winter that we've come to love so much and sub-zero to a little above freezing and which seems very very warm which is typical. So hang on to your cold wet gear. In other words have your wet rain gear ready to go over top of your cold weather gear. Remember cold wet is the worst. Cold dry, run in it all day. Once you're acclimated you're fine. But again, we're not going to have that. We're going to get a little something as expected, but a little more temperature tomorrow maybe. Going to make it a little tough on the ice fishermen. But other than that, we should be good. And unfortunately, though, if it rains and then freezes, not so much. So let's watch that temperature and pay attention. And we are coming up now. We've still got a few days. Don't throw the weekend. Don't throw the work week away yet. But we have a couple days. Then we're into the weekend again, as always. It is weapons Wednesday. Reneer Arms has a couple of really good news on Harry. Go ahead, we've got a caller. Who do we have? Yeah, John up here named. I'll be real quick. Go ahead. You were talking about earthquakes. We had almost 4 point, it was a 3.9 off the southern coast of Maine on Monday and had another one in the same area today, about a 2.3. I would be willing to bet that we probably got hit too. Go ahead. I mean, you know, keep saying. Yeah. Any other thing? Where, as many years as I have been listening, I still have not found the archives. I've run Liberty Tree Radio, and it says archives 2021, 22, 23. But like if I wanted to listen to yesterday's archives where the show cut out in the first two hours, where would I find that? I'm lost. We do have through our Gilded, I believe Ed could probably pop up, where the present archives is a couple of overlapping options. Number one, and not the first choice for everybody, but BitShoot, if you go over to BitShoot and punch in Mark Kornke or Liberty Tree Radio, I think it still pops up under both. They have been posting one of our allies has been posting the Intel report there. So there is an ongoing feed at bit shoot and It takes a day for them to sometimes catch up but and in theory the program from yesterday should be up by now Now that's one. The other option is so they have other out. There we go. We got that there Okay, first libertytreeradio.4mview.com forward slash 2025.html. That's everything except for last night's and tonight's program is already posted there. There's also, uh, https forward slash forward slash archive dot org forward slash detail forward slash the intelligence report 2025. Both of those are posted in the Gilded and are pinned to the top comment on the Gilded page. Again, we have overlaps. On X, we have another ally who is apparently posting this program over there. I don't know how much of it is going up and I can't get on X. So if you can get on X, we'll... On X, I know we've got Militia Radio, which is being run by Kelly and maybe a couple other people, and they're doing global broadcasting over there. They have a unique setup how they're broadcasting, but everybody's been talking about sound good. So I know at least through Militia Radio on X, you can find Liberty Tree Radio's archive through Militia Radio. There's also... There we go. Another program, I haven't checked it out yet, but Gregor451 posted, Viking Preparedness is Live. I think that's a YouTube channel, something you might want to check out too, because apparently they cover a lot of the subjects we do as well. But I don't think it's a rebroadcast of those. So there's a few solutions that way. This will be pinned in the archives. Well, I'm recording this now, so I'll be able to get it. Okay, it is pinned in the gilded under the general section. When you click on general at the top of the page, if you've never used a chat service like this before, at the top of the page on the right-hand side, just like with Discord, just like with Google Groups or whatever the hell that one's called, I can't remember it right now. On the upper right hand side there's a little thing that looks like a push pin with a button next to it. When you click on that, you'll see we have a lot of messages that are pinned there including the detox recipe, a bunch of links to old archives, links to other information that we've talked about on air, stuff that other listeners have posted that I was asked to pin that way people could find it quickly. It is there. It's right there and Let's see Jason Killen just posted again the intelligence report on archives.org But he doesn't have a full month up there. I think he said let me see where he stops that He's got January 1 through 10 up and 11 through yesterday is currently uploading So he's going to be up to the same point where I am today, probably, because he posted that last night when people were asking about it. And before that, I posted the link in the archives. And I'll see what's going on with the website, because the website's been getting problems with the archives page. But yeah, it's there. It's just a number on the date on to the end of the archive. 2024 should be there, too. It shouldn't just go to 2023 and then be nothing. Now look into that and see what's going on with it, but it is up there Beautiful so well that's there we go. Yeah, so anyway, thanks. Yeah Well, you know it's after all Maine and Michigan are connected both above through above above us and below us apparently because we all get hit with the Same kind of weather and we all get hit with the same kind of seismic activity apparently too. So We get to a pretty consistent Well, it's interesting. Was there any discussion about it though in your state that they actually mentioned it somewhere? Yes. Yes, it was on the local news. And that's why I'm curious because you really didn't get any coverage here. Yeah. No, it's a very local thing, so you wouldn't hear it there just like I wouldn't hear yours here. Go figure. You know, in theory. Yeah. Hey Dad, I'm going to come up because I forgot one other thing. If you had a problem with the program last, the other night, in fact, you can still do this because this program is our live program. Right now you can tune into the 8 PM intelligence report from last night by calling 712-432-0990. And then the same participation code 957-464 in the pound sign and we'll start playing our last live conference on the line that was recorded. When these two hours are done or when this block is done, because I don't know if Craig is going to be live or yet tonight, if he is live you'll have to wait till after 8 p.m. to do that. But if he's not, when we're done with these two hours, it should You should be able to call in and automatically it should just start playing the last five broadcast which will be today when we're done with the project. Okay. So there is a way to select programs through that system as far as I know. I haven't used it myself. I know Darzak and a couple of other people have. I know you can fast forward and rewind through it. But I don't know if there's a way to select and go back programs in that system. There might be. Because that's the pre-compet line itself. It's a direct connect. There. So we have a myriad of solutions. Not just one. We have a myriad. And that always sounds impressive when you say myriad. Then some people have to look it up. Well, myriad? What the hell is that? Uh, cornucopia. What the hell is that? Cornucopia? Yeah, a lot. How about that? Well, they could have said that first thing. Yeah, we have a lot. We have quite a few. And actually, remember, a lot of the work that's done, we, it's friendlies that are doing this where they're putting a lot of the postings up. We don't really have anything to do with them, just generate the sound with the first program, you know, live as we go, and then it's picked up from there. And I understand that we are in other venues with regard to other services. I just don't know them all. And if anybody wants to, I'll tell you what I'll remind you again, if you're listening and you are listening on something other than what we've mentioned, send me an email at liberty at provide.net. And we'll pass the information on and that would be easier for somebody to connect. The system, the whole Internet system is hockey-pucked right now. There are so many issues and problems. that it's purely a matter of the many, many overlapping methods that communications are being transmitted. So one area, it might be more efficient for you to use another system rather than directly listen into the program. It's just the way it is. Matter of services and servers and fiber, copper, and don't forget, we're up in microwave. People are shooting the signal back and forth. all over the planet. It's amazing how efficient our communications is considering how many different systems have to be integrated. And again, let me point something out. I talk about satellite. We've got people that are actually, think about this, it goes out from me to the interlink that we have for Ed and the network. And then it goes out, obviously in general, through a number of different connective services. And then, for instance, Somebody is picking us up on satellite, shooting us halfway across the Pacific, or all the way across the Pacific, depending on how they're hooked up to who they're hooked up to. And it goes right around literally, the signal is going right around the planet, planet, planet, planet, echo, echo, echo, echo. I think it'd be interesting, I probably could set up a system off to the side here, and we literally would circumnavigate the globe electronically, and it would be, I don't know what the delay would be, it might be five, six, maybe eight minutes. It's a fascinating experiment with that. But that's how vast our connective services and how many different people are picking us up. I know that we're being bounced all over the place by the Slovakians. The Slovaks have done a fantastic job. They are very American in many ways. And the other is Romanian. I understand Western Romanian assets that we have. are also rebroadcasting us in a number of different ways. And they share us with Poland and I think we go into Serbia from that direction along with other locations, I'm sure down in southeastern Europe, which I think is interesting. And then in Asia itself, we have a long, I don't know, Ed could probably check to see what the readings are right now. And this is a fact, for as long as we've been on the air, We have a reliable, consistent block of listeners in Bangladesh. Now, Bangladesh kind of works, you know, it competes for being, you know, one of the poorest countries. There's like three countries that are, you know, some of the poorest in the world. And Bangladesh is competing with Chad and a couple others, but they do have, they are wrapped around the technology. And they actually, right now they know I'm waving because I know they're listening. And this has been going on for decades. I think in the earliest register we had where Ed could pull up the, you know, who's listening, where are they from, what part of the planet? The internet was smaller, by the way. And Bangladesh showed up and I think it was our top 16 or 17 connected nation states, however many nodes, which is amazing. And again, I appreciate the fact that they've been listening for so long because they're still listening. Which is great that means we have people of like mind in Bangladesh. I'm hopefully it'll say that way Hopefully we've promoted a few people you know get motivated so we have a broad International and listenership, and I don't know how many countries were hooked up to but I would say pretty much probably at least half of them With it with it anyway go ahead jump in there Yeah, when you get done get a hold of me. I get coming. I'll talk to a hemostatic won't spray better than the pre-clock Quick, oh, emesthetic wound spray. When you have time. Absolutely, because we are packing up, and again a reminder for our listeners who are here in the Midwest, remember we are now getting ready to schedule the mass medical pack. I had all the airways come in, that was really the thing I was waiting for, but I still have a, I think there's one more box, or I should say thousands that are coming in. And we will be doing both the iFacts and the both the small and medium dock kits. And in fact today I dug out the dock backpacks. I don't have very many of these. They're kind of rare, but it is a dock backpack which is like a rolling mobile mini surgery. Maybe that's the best way to describe it because anything and everything is on board. I only have 12 of those. I'm trying to get hold of the source. I had a military surplus source for that a few years ago when the coronavirus scan plugged in. And as we all know, a lot of people disappeared. But, you know, just went out of business, did whatever. So, if I can, I'm going to buy him out. I know what he had, and I don't think anybody knows he has them. These are the US military, but they're in the vinyl. They're not in the Cordura. These are in a vinyl pack, and they are, again, more resistant to water and also less, you know, more resistant to blood and other stuff. Remember, you get sticky when you're doing stuff like this. So the big thing is that these backpacks are easier to clean and also will stay dryer. Now we're still packing everything up in Ziploc bags. You're seal and mill right there. We're going to be seal and milling and perforating all of the materials that we can. But some items it's just easier to use the Ziploc bags. So when we do this big packing, it's going to be for two or three battalion strength formations plus I think we've got enough of the IFAX with what somebody just picked up from south of the Michigan border here to do more than a couple thousand of the IFAX themselves. So we will be out fitting whole units top to bottom with a complete new IFAX supplementing. Now they have to pay for it. Guys, I'm not doing this for free. Okay. Someone's got to pay for the materials, but it's been covered. Most of it has been. They've already got everything in the schedule. So heads up, this is not an if, it's just a when. The date is the issue now. And we have a couple of other travel issues we've got to watch out for window wise. So we're going to make sure that we can make this available to as many people that are as friendly as possible, you know, CMM, Mission Militia at large, Ohio Militia, Indiana, Northern, Dragoons, all of those, everybody that wants to participate, you're going to be able to participate. Send a couple medics and or other people that want to learn because what we're doing is we're setting up a production line. I don't want to just pack the stuff up and hand it out. The best way to have the information between the ears is to pack the individual IFACs up. and to repack, repack, you know, there's packing on one, packing on the other, one packing on the other. It's going to be muscle, memory, brain. The brain muscle is going to be well packed with information, but it will become second nature. We are going to do a factory pick production line where everything is going to be laying there on the tables and you go through and everybody is going to clean up, everybody is going to be squared away. We have a quick tutorial on what to do with each of the kits when we do them. And then everybody go through, pick this, pick this, pick this. We will have straw bosses on the line. But the idea is you get to the other end, you are done, swing back around to the front, start over again. Repeat, repeat, repeat. And this way you will remember, you will have handled these things. You will know how they are packed. And the good thing about this is also with the advanced packs, the dock kits, because the dock kits are much more sophisticated in terms of materials. But it is nice for other people to understand how these kits are put together. The dock might have you assisting him. And so we want everybody to know how these work. That's the important thing. Somebody's asking, did we deal with the thing about trying to find saline for the IV packs? I have a, that's a good question actually, because everybody forgot about that. We actually put a feeler out to a source and we have a medical supply resource that donated. a bunch of stuff. So I don't know how much. I know that it's going to take a couple of pickup trucks to pick everything up. And remember, that's not light. That's heavy. But we're looking at bags. We're looking at transportable. And so, yes, we'll be doing complete IV kits. That's going to be another one. In fact, the IV Molly pouches are what we're going to be Standardizing on because we've got a source on those and there's a couple other sources if we run out Don't get enough what we want we can access them from other sites, so that's in motion to and again I can't do this all myself everybody's picking up the weight and helping out a little bit there which makes a big difference and again Won't by the way the listener that is the medical supplier. He's there on the he's listening to the program right now and him it is his untourage. I want to say thank you and we appreciate the fact that that donation is in place. And we're headed towards the bottom of the hour. It's Weapons Wednesday. Well, we've been talking about leaking holes in people, basically medical support and the jiggling earth below us, but we need to talk about weapons. Well, I did mention Renier. Renier Arms, like Mount Renier, has AR-15 mags. They're Hera, 30 round polymer. AR-15 mags for about, we'll say $6 a piece, $5.90 some cents, whatever it is. They actually, I think, have a little better price. You have to buy 10 at a time. If you buy just one, they're full price of like $9.99 or whatever. So needless to say, if you buy 10, you get them for like $6. I think it's, I want to say $5.89, $5.99, whatever it is right there. So, about six dollars. Let's just say six and throw a dart there, you'll catch it. Renier and the good mags, Harrah's, people like them. There's all kinds of Polymer mags out there. Let's remember that you're never going to have enough mags. The Harrah's in this case have the window back so that you can see how many rounds you have. If you're not familiar with that, take a look at the images. Go over to Renier, mount to Renier, no, Renierarms.com. and go take a look at some of the other deals. Oh, they also do have a bundle deal on Glock mags and a few others, but you're going to have to sit through that through the deals section. However, look up AR-15 10 round bundles and the Harrahs will pop up. There are some other more popular brands also in the bundle deal for the moment, but I don't know how long they're going to last. And that is over at Renier. Rainier Arms.com, not firearms, Rainier Arms.com. Pretty sure I got it right, did not slap me in the microphone. So, go ahead, caller, who do we have? Yeah, this is Paul from Tennessee. I was wondering, does these Glock magazines, would they work for the put together Glock 17 put together type, you know, with the call of the day? Yes, all of the poly frame 80%ers that have been built are either going to use a 17 or the 19 mag. It depends obviously on which frame you purchased. But they're all interchangeable, just that if you have the larger, the smaller mag's not going to lock in. But again, any of the Glock or Glock knockoff mags are working all of the what we call them, 92% Glocks because there's a little variance in the pistol but it has nothing to do with the magazine well. So good point, yes. If you have any of the poly home builds, then you want to stack up on the mags. Doesn't make any difference which gun you got. Pay attention to the nomenclature and make sure it matches up with what you've got in your fist. And I would buy at least one bundle of ten. To be quite honest, everybody listening, magazines, especially for the pistol, they disappear so easily. Bad enough dropping rifle mags, because it happens. You think you secure a pouch, you bounce around, then you realize you're reaching for that pocket, and there's nothing there. And you look back at that open field over there, that open area just crossed in the count of one, two, three, well, those mags are sitting there. You're not going back for those. Somebody might shoot you. So, keep in mind that more mags are better, always. I like to do four, in a four mag pouch, where you've got the individual molly pockets for the large capacity, you know, Beretta and Glock mags. Beretta is what they were made for, because that was the standard at the time. For most of these molly pouches, they work perfectly. There's nothing wrong with them. But I like the gang pouches. You can get them from pretty much everybody that will carry four. And that's a great way to have an instant clutch when the time comes. So you figure it out, 15 rounds or 16 or 17 times 4. That's a little bit of fire power. And then still one of the mag, one of the, for it to be one of the mag well and maybe one stuck on a pocket on the holster itself, which most of them do have. So more is better. Six is minimal. As far as I'm concerned with a handgun. There's no reason not to. Mags are late. Ammunition is 9mm. Come on. You have a problem carrying that? There's something wrong with you. And the bottom line is, is pew pew isn't going to last very long anyway. You're going to wonder where all those mags went. These aren't shooting stuff. It's amazing. It's a 30 round mag. Bap, bap, bap, bap, bap, bap, bap. Yep, it is. It's empty. What happened to my ammo? It's gone, sir. It's gone. Your little twitchy finger worked really well. So again, everything, pistol rifle or shotgun. Go ahead, color. Yeah, I like that 9mm Luger cartridge. You know that stands for... Parabellum stands for prepare for war or something like that. Well, originally the 9mm was built for... well, the Bouchard used it, although the Bouchard originally used 30... 30 Luger and we used the larger, a couple of the other rounds depending on what country it was sold to, the Bouchard predates the Luger. The Luger of course, that's what made it famous. Everybody recognizes the 9mm in that. Again, it's had its ups and downs. When the 40 Smith & Wesson came out, everybody had to piss on the 9. And it's interesting that now somebody wants to sell a whole shit load of pistols because they've sold all the .40 cals they can. So now all of a sudden they hate the .40 cal and we've got to go back to 9mm. Well that's great if you're a gun seller but it's not great if you're the people who have a whole bunch of weapons and you're the taxpayers, you don't want to pay for replacements that don't need to be made. But that's exactly what's happening. And it'll continue and there's nothing new. So it's the endless see saw of brown envelopes under the table for the latest greatest is what it comes down to somebody got a payoff yes sir and they're going to get another one. That's a lesson. I never shot one before what's the recoil feel like is it like the nine millimeter? It's nothing worse. Yeah it's just halfway between, look at this way, it's just halfway between the nine and the 45. That's the only way to do that. That's it? Yeah none of them are. I'm sorry, I've shot .357 all the time and for me the recall on that is except for as you're getting older you're gonna feel it with your wrist but it's not so much the idea that it's punishing. It's just as you get older your whole your your hinding gets peebler. That's all we got to worry about. Oh we got some dog or something in the background. New last? Go ahead, we got you going. Connected information right now in the field. Oh, what? Bottom of the hour. Sorry. There is danger and there's danger in our hills. Oh, here you're not just singing of the views of wild and free. But soon you'll know. Hold the rifle, hold the rifle. Get our hand out your rifle. Add a good lead speed. You may not stir in the master. Your forward march with speed. But you'll learn the fact much faster when you meet our mountain boys. And they'll leave their job to start. Glad you make what's a little noise and always hit the mark. Hold the rifle, hold the rifle. In our hands. Alright, we are back! This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine. Remember, without your rifle, you are useless. seal wound care dot-com I spell Sierra echo Alpha Lima whiskey Oscar uniform Delta Charlie Alpha Romeo echo dot-com It's faster and works better than a quick plot very good. It's just listed as he was static prayer does it have a Company name of any kind it seems that it's not me name They have one which is a decent price. They have two sizes of spray, two and a half and one and a half fluid ounces. I want one and a half fluid ounces. For about $107 you get one can of that, a double molly pouch, a trauma scissors and a tourniquet. Which is pretty damn decent. A little more expensive than Quick Clot. It makes a nice package. I reckon you'll get one for each car to keep and your glove locks over. Absolutely. Well again, remember Quick Clot by name isn't cheap either. You can buy it in smaller increments, but you remember when Quick Clot first came out, it was in one pound containers. I don't know if everybody remembers this. Way, way, way back. It's like, oh my God, dump it in! You know, that kind of thing. And I think, though they don't want to talk about it, it slid sideways from another part of the medical industry. Let me give you a hint. It's like the name of that other company we talk about, ShopMedVet.com. And it was already out there in the market in force. The only issue with it is, Well, here's how you think about it. If the person's in shock, they're probably in shock. You have a little window where there isn't any pain issue. Don't worry, that's going to catch up. And depending how bad it is, if you're not feeling it, that's kind of how you determine how much bad, how bad off the casualty is, so to speak. So there's a window there where applying the quick clot isn't really an issue or a problem. But here's the other thing, as I've said many times, if you're the medic, You have to gird yourself and ignore what little discomfort you might create for the patient to save the patient's life and it's not necessarily a little bit of discomfort. And quick clot is one of those things. One more thing. Go ahead. Yeah, it's also antibacterial which quick clot isn't. Yeah. It's a deep wound, dry it open, spray it in. Still spray it in. And close as much as you can to spray it over. And I mean this is a whole lot nicer than all the quick one I get here. Yeah. And again, it's sealwoundcare.com. Hemostatic spray, 2.5 ounce and 1.5 ounce fluid ounces. Comes with a double moly pouch. Comes with a tourniquet. So is there any extra space in the pouch? Would you take a look at it? It looks like it's got a little extra storage space in it for jamming a few more things in. No, it's pretty old and narrow down which is what I like about it. And you have a lot of options. You can buy a small tube to big tubes. You can buy just a pouch. You can buy the combinations. You can buy it with the trauma scissors or not. With the tourniquet or not. You've got a lot of selections there. Very good. And again, take the time if whoever is interested, go over to sealwoundcare.com and then take a look at what the inventory is that they have available, see what fits your needs. Like I said, some people may just want the hemostatic spray. I understand. You've already got everything put together, but you think this might be a solution, and it probably will be. Then that's the direction to go. If you're looking for Adding additional units to the inventory and you want somebody else to put them together, congratulations. It's right there ready to go. Go ahead, jump in there. Yeah, my eFAC is a lot bigger than both of you. That's why it's not in every car and this, that and the other. And this is much more compact package and more likely to have with you during normal times. Over. Right. Again, it's the, well, so one of our listeners just got something kind of like that, probably will wonder what the pouch is, but that's what it is, is an individual, a smaller individual utility pouch for tourniquet, small pair of scissors, and any other items like roll gauze, whatever you want to pack in there. Of course, if you've got the bulkier tourniquet, it's just basically a tourniquet carrier with one or two other tools. But that's one of our listeners, and we'll receive that as part of their thank you gift from the drawing. Just a heads up. Yeah, the dual pouch is about like the M245M Mali pouches. Yeah, perfect. Again, not too bulky. Not so bulky, not in the way, but it's handy when you need it. I usually carry what basically is almost a bat belt, because even if I'm not carrying a tactical rig, I'm usually carrying so much extra junk. I carry two or three different multi-tools because they have two or three different missions. Then on top of that, medical pouch, and on top of that, usually anybody who knows, I'm wearing a multi-pocket utility vest and that's packed with everything for the very same reason we're talking about because depending on the situation, pretty much you just never know what you're going to run into and we've seen that. Again, proper planning prevents piss poor performance. Having the tools in the toolbox makes all the difference in the world. So, heads up, this is something that's useful. Anything else? Jump in there, please, before we go any farther. No, I'm out. Thanks so much. Appreciate it, brother. Thank you for following up. I appreciate that. Thank you. Another thing real quick about medical, that's just like magazines. You never have enough. You're not going to be overburdened because don't worry, once you start using it, the stuff all disappears very quickly. It's put to good use. Or I should say, it's put to use. I prefer not to be shot, but it works. We've got a caller. Go ahead, jump in there. Yeah, I heard a wound, a bullet wound. It's just that that bullet is still in there. I hear whether it is or not. It'll actually, if that type of pain catches up to you, that throbbing type every time your heart beats, that's what I've heard. Like a toothache. Well, the big issue is again, what kind of damage? What does it make contact with? Also, remember most people complain that it's hot. Well, yes, it is, sir. It's hot. It burns. It burns for a number of different reasons, but not the least of which is, yes, it's up to temp when it hits. And depending on how extreme or not extreme with regard to casualty response, it's up and down the spectrum. It's also a matter of what is the pain tolerance level for an individual to begin with. That's as varied as the day is long. You'll remember we've heard that term bite the bullet. A lot of people know how to do that. And again, this is one of those ongoing issues that we're going to be facing. You'll find out soon enough if we get into something exciting, just exactly how difficult it is to deal with the many different problems that develop because of the situation we're facing. Go ahead. Will your medical team have all the tools to remove shrapnel and bulletin things like that? Actually, that's what's interesting. In the past, US military, the aid I should say the medical support slash aid men was not or has not been expected to do minor surgery per se, but we're in a different situation so we have to actually train most people to be light field surgeons simply because we aren't going to have enough people and there is no hospital in a battlefield situation like this, especially if you're irregular forces. You can't go anywhere where the bad guys can grab you, so to speak. You always keep that in mind. I try to, and I recommend this with everybody, that you actually have all the tools in the toolbox to perform up to and including extraction, minor surgery, and also dental work. Dental is a beast unto itself, but you will eventually, if you cross your fingers, everything goes properly. You're going to run to somebody who at least has some background, preferably a doctor would be nice, obviously. But having the tools in the toolbox, what Doc is going to need is more important than anything else, which is why, like I said, the middle-sized kits that we're building have a 21-piece surgical set in them. So, in example probes, let's understand you've got to find the bullet before you can take it out. You also have to identify what kind of damage has been done and you don't want to create more damage while you're trying to extract the bullet. So even with the probe, you have to pay attention and there are different types of probes, but basically what you're doing is you're moving down through the wound channel, you identify where the metal is and then you have to work it back out. Now, if we're talking shrapnel or fragmentation, that's a very different situation. That's a different bird. And the problem is it didn't necessarily go straight in. Remember, things are weeble wobbling or scimitarring or flying through the air, you know, ass over apple cart one end to the other and then it hits you and it does the same thing when it's going into you. So that wound channel may not be all that direct. And that's the other thing everybody needs to remember. You don't just reach in and rip it out. That's movies. It happens with bullets to a degree. But when you're talking all the other things on the battlefield, and again, fragmentation is something that we should be more concerned with, well, as concerned with as direct contact slash kinetic projectile energy weapons of whatever kind, pistol, rifle, shotgun. Because typically that's a very straightforward type of wound. But fragmentation, you see grenades, mortars, you've got aerial devices, which by the way are nothing new. And again, they were just droidotoids. We've had variations on this for as long as we've had warfare in the last 120 years now. This is the year 2025. Well, I'll say 100 years. We'll give you 100 years, but 105, 106, because World War I. everything that we're seeing now, they saw then. In fact, they saw things that you haven't seen. Let me point something out. In World War I, people were being gassed. My grandfather was in World War I. He was gassed three different times. He was hit with mustard gas. Did they get him out of the war? Hell no. They propped his ass up. He coughed out enough of the garbage that he could go back into the field, and they put his ass right back on the line. And you know what happened again? They did the same thing. What do I mean by propped him up? Most people don't realize that when you get hit with gas, what happens is basically you have to sit the person up so they don't drown in their own phlegm. Because if you have any kind of burn with the lungs, the abeoli, the body, is pushing fluids into a burn area to try and flush out. It's kind of like a, it's an histamine effect for all practical purposes, okay? So what happens is with gas casualties is that they would literally drown in their own fluids. So when you got hit with gas, of course some were worse than others and a lot of them did die. But they'd prop you up, let's keep coughing stuff out. Here's the basic rule about surviving a gas attack. As long as you could cough out the debris, you lived. When you got too tired to cough. Now everybody's experiences with some of the stuff that's more recently happened with all the different bios they've been hitting everybody with. My chest gets tired. Well just imagine that many times over where you're trying to hack up a constant infusion of phlegm, but it's actually fluid. It's really more like just fluid. This is where traditionally what they would do with the worst cases, and you've seen this if you've seen stents into the lungs, This is why I'm a healthy believer in gas masks. Most everybody else is stupid who will say something stupid about you don't need that. Well, that dimwitch never done any historical research about the weapons that all masks. Most everybody else is stupid who will say something stupid about you don't need that. Well, that dimwitch never done any historical research about the
