Medals: Hey everyone. After spending a little time on this i've gotten to know my way around here pretty well. If you wanna talk or ask a question feel free :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MYSPACE: kymmieisrad (Yeah i know its not the best, but someone else made it for me :(... ) MSN/HOTMAIL: jacobah123@hotmail.com Im not sure if I am meant to have these on here, if I am not... can you just tell me please :) thnx ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When i finish school I am planning on doing my Gap year in the army as a rifleman. (gap year in Australia is the year after you finish school. With the Gap year in the army you sign on for only 1 year instead of 4. I will do this so if i dont like it i wont have to serve for a long period of time). If I am still quite keen on serving for 4 years i will sign up as a fitter/armament (repairs a range of weapons i.e rifles aswell as small generators and such) as serve as that. This will give me alot of skills that would help if any threat arose in the future. MY ZOMBIE FLAG- design 1: design 2: Z= Zombie S=Survivor ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mercobs Survival Plan Firstly, a little about myself just to let you get to know me and if it helps with any of the judging so you know I am NO professional shooter or Survivalist. I am 16 turning 17. I live in Australia where it is very hard to obtain a weapon of any type (whether melee or firearm). I have been planning a survival escape route and defence scenario for quite some time. Ok now to the actual plan; My Bug-Out-Bag (BOB) that is already assembled now. In a small bag that fits into the front part of any backpack I have the following supplies; Two cans of zippo fluid, Knife sharpener, whetstone, compass, three xenon bulb torches with supply of 2 sets of batteries each, four mini screw drivers, ten lighters (3 zippos, 3 jet lighters, 4 bics), three pen knives of good strength, one four bladed knife that detaches into two, two bladed knives, small roll of duct tape, three packets of matches, zippo flints and small packet 1.75 inch nails. In my backpack 3 compartments, 1st small compartment at the front sits the small bag. 2nd small compartment sits; one rain poncho, one set of welding gloves, about 45ft of rope (decent thickness of course), hammer and large box of 2 inch nails. 3rd compartment sits; One large black T-shirt (converts into balaclava, I am sure most people will know how to do this), Two tins of Pringles (they’re not in there now) and two 1.25L bottles that will hold water. Soon to be chocolate and candy also in there, aswell a few pieces of fruit if they can fit (the second compartment takes up a lot of room by the way). Just on my shelf above all of this I have a plastic bag that has; two sets of briefs, two sets of thick wool socks and two sets of singlets. Next to this, on another shelf, I have; a pair of steel capped boots (currently in my dad’s wardrobe), a pair of skinny leg jeans with strong belt, a tight fitting black T-shirt, an averagely thick jumper that is pretty tight over my shirt, about two dozen dust masks and my survival knife (hollow hilted but full-tang, which has a small compass in it, about 30ft of fishing wire, half a dozen different sized hooks, half a dozen matches and a small piece of flint). The knife is in a sheath, which can be put onto my belt. Other weapons and tools lying around my house; italic= I will take, normal= I would consider. Baseball bat – wooden or metal (these things are so hard to find in Australia ha-ha), Kitchen knives, Spades and shovels, Metal or wooden poles, hatchet and small sized sledgehammer. THINGS I AM PLANNING ON GETTING SOON: A map of the local area, spanning 100kms in every direction of my house, if possible. One of those things where they tell you the latitude and longitude of where you are…sorry I don’t know the name. Maybe some flares. Ok finally onto my plan, it’s taken a while but now its time. SURVIVAL PLAN:
My barricade for my house would be chairs and tables in front of the downstairs windows and planks boarding windows up, while upstairs is covered by a bed blocking the main part of the stairs and a couch and chairs in the way. I would have bricks and rocks up there aswell so I can throw them at them if they are on the stairs or below. Firearms The firearms I would like to acquire before or while this is happening would be a .22 semi automatic browning rifle of any make, and a .45 semi automatic pistol of any make. If I come across any other firearms along the way though I will be sure to pick them up, because in my area they are quite rare. Other places to raid and reasons: Sporting goods store, they can have quite good melee weapons (sporting good stores in Australia don’t usually sell firearms. Police station, they can have radios, firearms ( pistols, rifles, shotguns) body armour. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Favourite TV show: Lost, family guy, american dad, simpsons, futurama and the avatar :) Favourite movie: The last samurai Favourite music/genre: Favourite song would be Energy 52 by Cafe Del Mar and favourite genre trance Favourite sport: Footy or most foreign countries know it as rugby league or NRL Favourite book: Ummm probably angels and demons not really my type of book in general but i loved it Favourite zombie movie: 28 weeks later or dawn of the dead (remake) Favourite type of zombie: On Steams Zombie panic- the carrier, he is a white zombie. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ZOMBIE QUESTIONAIRE:Got anyone you want to take with you? Yeah... family, friends, friends families, pets and pretty much whoever we pick up along the way How will you communicate with the outside world, or do you plan to go the hermit route? Try and communicate with as many people as possible to see what is happening and going on How are you planning to get food and water? At the first sign on trouble stock up on all the water that can be possibly stored at the house, raid a supermarket for food and water, go to a nursery and get lots of fruit and vegetable seeds and purify water after that. What's your weapon of choice? Do you need to reload that thing? Gotta plan for that? Well to begin with my survival knife and probabli a makeshift spear but hopefully after a succesful raid on a gunshop, a .22 semi automatic rifle and a .45 pistol. Both of any design or make. Got a survival philosophy? If its still twitching it aint dead. Are you willing to hook up with other survivors? Course, the more the merrier. Nah but safety in numbers is essential for my plan. Plus the more people the more they can bring, i.e. information, skills, supplies... Is your plan based on a book/movie/blog/scientist we may have heard of? Nah not really just got a bit of inspiration here and there really :)
