July 8, 2019 Randolph Jason

How NOT to Build Your Medical Kit and What NOT to Do With It by Selco for The Organic Prepper The medical field is one of my favorite fields of prepping, not only because it is my “field of work” for many years but also because it is very often misunderstood in prepping.
