GET READY FOR SURVIVAL MODE
One of the most comprehensive manuals written, with proven wilderness survival tactics for every situation.
Written for use in formal United
States Air Force survival training courses, the U.S. Air Force
Survival Handbook is the bible for pilots who want to stay alive—no
matter what. Assuming, as the Air Force does, that flight
personnel may be faced at any time with a bailout or crash landing in
hostile territory without supplies, the advice here is superlatively
practical, but also surprisingly readable and interesting.
Detailing specific survival threats at sea, in the tropics, in the
desert, in Arctic conditions, and the psychological perils of
imprisonment and torture, this handbook is replete with fascinating and
useful (if unsettling) information. Precisely written, profusely
illustrated, and completely authoritative, this is an essential book for
anyone—soldier or civilian—looking for knowledge that could prove to be
the difference between life and death in a dangerous situation.
