    There is NOT a whole lot of "how to" deal with human waste disposal, but there is enough to warrant the reading. There is a LOT more than burying lumps in the manual, all relevant to both individual and group operations.

    Yeah, the "shovel ready" part is in the Appendix starting at A-33. It is all inter-related to keeping healthy in post SHTF conditions, though many of the chemicals may not be available.

    Infiltrate suspected enemy positions at night and do your dumpin' in his water supply or Wheaties! It might be useful to have a Typhoid carrier for these "really special missions!" JAT!
