“Nuclear Blast to your Front! React!” – How the Army Trains to Survive an ‘Atomic Battlefield’
The title of this article is the exact preparatory command (situation), and the command of execution given to us in the Army to drill a nuclear attack. Readers, we all hope every day that our “society does not come to a screeching halt via a nuclear attack. But what if it does? OK, we’ve “gamed” it from a perspective that you haven’t become a shadow-silhouette on a burned wall and been vaporized…that you’re not living in a “ground zero” targeted area. If you are, then you have several options beforehand: if there’s warning, bug outand get out of the blast area, or move out of the area to a place that is not a target.
Their will be skeptics, and their ilk that will ask a litany of questions like: “How are you gonna save everyone?”, “What about those who can’t afford property…?”, “Yeah, like we’re going to get warning!”
AD INFINITVM, AD NAVSEVM.
Survival is not a guarantee.
Are you’re willing to examine your lifestyle and do what it takes? Make the necessary changes and act? That is called “adaptation,” and it is what has enabled the species to survive…the minority who emerge from the rubble when the skeptical majority are dead. We’re talking “hardball,” here, and it is “sink or swim,” although we don’t shoot for that…we want others to make it through…but there comes a time when you must cut your losses and take care of you and yours.
If you’re willing to do what it takes (sometimes in the face of skepticism and even ridicule) and go “against the grain,” you may give yourself the edge helping you survive.
Enough said there. What if the worst does happen, and you happen to be five to ten miles away from a blast? Skeptics, we do have information that will work besides the results of Hiroshima and Nagasaki: the “Atomic Soldiers” of the United States armed forces. Yes, during the 1950’s, whole battalions were emplaced in the southwestern deserts of the U.S. and subjected to be the “test” subjects of nuclear explosions. Those tests were real, and the results they generated were real. We don’t want it to have been for nothing: take the knowledge they earned, and use it.
