Episode 53 – 72 hour kit

In past episodes we’ve discussed car kits and home emergency kits.  This week we will talk about 72 Hour kits / get out of dodge (GOOD) / Bug Out Bag /Evacuation kits.  Unlike many who identify themselves as survivalists this is NOT a battle kit, this is a “I have to evacuate NOW due to a chemical spill and I need supplies for 3 days” kit.

I shamelessly stole the list that I use in this episode from about.com and modified it a bit to make it fit my ideas a bit better.  Below the podcast I will include some other links as well as some things I thought to add recently.  Let me know if you think of anything else.

Things I forgot…

  • Self defense items (firearm, knife, pepper spray)
  • Small portable hard drive / thumb drive with backed up computer information.
  • Large contractor sized garbage bags (55 gal), these can be used for so many things.

Stuff to buy (hopefully)…
