If you’re living in the city during a disaster, the last thing you want to do is draw attention to yourself. Whether it’s a short-term disaster like a hurricane or a long-term disaster like an economic crisis, you can expect crime to be very high. Police will be stretched to the limit, and many ordinary people will become criminals if they’re desperate.
Sure, you could stay at home. But there are many scenarios where you would have to venture out into the city. Especially if it’s a long-term disaster. In that case, you might even still have a job to go to. So how do you make yourself unnoticed? You become a “gray man.”
There’s some confusion surrounding this topic, but Black Scout Survival clears it up. Check out his video about it below.
Long ago and far away some wise man said of becoming the Gray Man: “If you live in the ocean, you must become a fish.” If you can follow this reasoning it makes perfect sense. Do, look, speak, act and smell as those around you.
Get the book by Matthew Dermody. Worthwhile and you can hold it in your hands.
Some of this practical info, you’re gonna want to print up now, make a place to keep them.

We have books, papers…so that the wife won’t be too freaked out if something happens to me. We also frequently camp …she knows about shelter and firemaking…
She doesn’t like the guns, but knows how to use them.

What good is a video on blending into the crowd going to do when the SHTF and we’re without computers or even electricity? If I can’t print out a matching article, there’s no point in watching because I can’t possibly remember all the tips that are published daily on the ‘Net.
