U Guys Know Selco? - let's meet this prepper guru ....

1. ''Selco survived the Balkan war of the 90s in a city under siege, without electricity, running water, or food distribution.
   In his online works, he gives an inside view of the reality of survival under the harshest conditions. He reviews what works and what doesn’t, tells you the hard lessons he learned, and shares how he prepares today.
   
   He never stopped learning about survival and preparedness since the war. Regardless what happens, chances are you will never experience extreme situations like Selco did. But you have the chance to learn from him and how he faced death for months.
   
   Real survival is not romantic or idealistic. It is brutal, hard and unfair. Let Selco take you into that world.''

I read all his blog post. He sure kills the romantic notions about SHTF. Been there, done that, ain't fun.

 

I also have read them and consider them to be excellent. I saw Sarajevo right afterwards (1995) and thought I had stepped back in history to WW2, especially around the airport, place was torn apart from bullets and bomb blasts, can't explain it. Seems right out of a horror movie but around dusk, the roads being covered in debris, we had a flat tire... I swear I could feel thousands of eyes on me as we changed it yet I knew no one lived there anymore, couldn't as place was blown apart. I think that is when I started believing in ghosts...and later when we went up to the ski station and saw the site where they hung people from the great wooden rafters (so many that the ropes had dug huge gouges into the wood) then sent the bodies down the gondola into Sarajevo...well, I still believe in ghosts to this day...

 

Wow Bandit. That's pretty creepy.

 

I must have been right before you Bandit99. I will never forget flying into the airport in Sarajevo and seeing the destruction! The smell was the worst thing I have ever experienced, it permeated every thing, even my skin! To this day, I can still smell it as if I was just stepping off the plane, that smell of death.
We had to set up security around our part of the base, and until we got reinforced, had to patrol our AO, freaky is not a word I would use lightly! Having seen war and destruction in other parts of the world, Sarajevo still haunts me, keeps me up at night! So sad the crimes that took place there in such a beautiful part of the world, you wouldn' think it possible, but it happened! Every thing was smoldering, the ruins of stores and homes, and the ever present stench of rotting corpses human and animal alike! Seeing the starving people clinging to what little was left, digging through rotting heeps of debris and gardens and eating rotting onions and potatoes! Worse thing i have ever experienced!
