Survive the End Days
But as I learned more about my grandfather’s hobby, I knew in my heart that one day
God would allow me to share my knowledge with other people who would need advice on
surviving.
One day he said to me, “Nathan, do you know that one of these transmitters saved my
best friend’s life?” I couldn’t wait for the story and the only thing which kept me silence was
the sight of some tears rolling down on his face. Boy, he was a man indeed! The concepts of
friendship and survival were dear to him and it was hard for me to imagine that such a
strong man who had experienced the atrocities of several wars and saved many lives could
ever have tears in his eyes. But he did! And this made him even more dear and spe cial to
me.
“We had been in the tranches for 2 days”, he said. “No water or food except some
rotten bread which we’d cut into small pieces so it would last longer. I told Johnny, we
needed to separate so we could make an advance. Take this radio with you and you’ll be
able to tell me where you are. Make sure Mike covers your back. I will make sure that we
distract the front line and make a breakthrough”. He then told me what happened next.
He explained it was utterly important that they would break the enemy defense that
day. The mission seemed impossible and my grandfather was also injured. (He was actually
proud to show me a big scar on his left shoulder, as much as it hurt to remember). But as
days passed by Johnny and Mike never got back and no matter how much my grandfather
tried to contact him by means of radio, he couldn’t make contact with them.
He would find out later that they were ambushed. Mike was shot to death and Johnny
was badly injured. Somehow, he managed to escape, but he had been lying unconscious in
the forest for two days. He found a cave-like shelter and stood there. But he held on tight to
the radio transmitter. He struggled to come out and eventually managed to contact my
grandfather by radio. They went after him. The mission succeeded and my grandfather’s
friend was saved. Johnny spent the rest of his life in a wheel chair but he was saved that
day due to that radio device. Later on, I heard that Johnny was able to get back to his wife
and kids and lived a happy life.
“You see, Nathan, it’s important to be prepared for any circumstance when you struggle
for survival, and sometimes, a radio transmitter has a lot to do with surviving. Always be
prepared!” he said, while I was holding in my hands the device that saved his friend’s life. I
will never forget his words. As for myself, I’m pretty sure that those old radio transmitters
they used in the past would outrun the more complex ones we have today on the market.
And the reason is simple: both use the same principles, but the present-day devices are
more exposed to an EMP attack because of their multi-functional character and circuit
complexity.
Being able to convey useful information through radio can be beyond helpful, especially
when it is about a life-and-death situation. More so, you could receive critical, updated
information on the best alternative routes, for instance, which will in fact, allow you to make
