Survival Cheat sheet

I found this on an old drive I was clearing:

Survival Cheat Sheet

Laminated this might be handy to have.

That's the one that The Urban Prepper from YouTube put together, right?

I believe so, yes. It's been on this old D drive of mine for a long time. The drive is now 12 years old so I figured it was probably time to replace it.

Thats very cool.

I have a color laser printer, a full-page laminator, a case of laminating pouches, a USPS commercial account, and plenty of time on my hands. I could possibly be convinced to send a laminated double-sided one to anyone who wants one... for a suitable donation to the site warchest.

Okay, it's all setup! If you want one just get the "Cheat Sheet" paid subscription (in your profile area) and PM me the address to mail it to.

Hey, I stumbled across a 2020 video by The Urban Prepper, where he announced the updated version of this:

The Video
The 2020 1-Page Cheat Cheat (with a few corrections)
The 2020 3-Page Cheat Cheat (larger font size, for you blind old folks

)

Nicely done.

For a bit more, consider:
Aircrew Survival by Department of The Air Force Pamphlet 36-2246 SB 1985 GPO
112 pages, sprial bound, notepad style. Check prices, this should be sorta cheap, it is a GPO product.

Umm... $92.99 on Amazon: https://a.co/d/1K1qiy7

Yes, there's much lower priced copies out there, some that are literal copies run off by companies like Rothco. I just found it interesting that the first one Google directed me to was the most expensive.

I think The Urban Prepper is an under-rated prepping channel. Partly because he doesn't have any kind of wilderness survival vibe. Not surprising given the name of his channel, but it's almost a unspoken requirement for many preppers.

I've tucked TUP's (updated) cheat sheet into all my emergency kits. Depending on the purpose of the particular kit, it's not all directly applicable, but I figure it can't hurt. Unfortunately, I don't have access to a laminator, so they're just folded and sealed in ziploc baggies. I think Staples may offer laminating services, but I'm too lazy to investigate that.

I did try to do a DIY lamination by sandwiching it between two pieces of clear contact paper, but that effort ended in tears.
