Notes from HJL:

Today, Safecastle (A SurvivalBlog advertiser) is starting their first Mountain House Sale of the year. This sale will only run until the 15th, so visit their site soon!

Mike Williamson (SurvivalBlog’s Editor At Large) sent in a link to an interesting book I am currently listening to: Army Life in a Black Regiment. It’s about some of the adventures of the First South Carolina Volunteers, the first slave regiment mustered into the service of the United States during the late civil war. It makes for more interesting commuting.

Today, we present two guest articles along with our usual reviews from Pat Cascio.

In Staying Mobile in a Collapse Situation, M.C. walks us through his plans for maintaining mobility as a priority. Second, D.D. gives us some history and recipes for making pemmican. This is something I have always wanted to try, but just have never gotten around to. Maybe today is the day.
