Thank you for clarifying these terms. I want to pull up my hair and correct people but I have given up long ago now I will just send them to this video.
Regards from Central America. Here's an interesting tip. When we changed from using a ceramic filter to using iodine pills, some of us caught parasites during a Pacific-Atlantic crossing through the Tropical Rainforest. We failed to follow a rule: if you submerge your canteen in a water source, after putting your iodine (or other chemical), wait until it has dissolved or mixed, then put your canteen upside down and loosen the cap so that the treated water flushes the thread in the cap and in the canteen. Otherwise, when you put your lips in your canteen, you can get the parasites anyway. Hope this helps.
I love the video Shawn. Brings back memories of when I was a medic in the Army, and having to disinfect our drinking water. I love your mid-week videos just as much as your sunday bushcraft videos. Outstanding AF!!
Best Corporals Corner mid-week video of the year. This one will be on a memory stick and the cellphones for our young troops to practice over & over until the information is 100% embedded in their grey matter. Basic but critical survival skills, expertly explained.
Thank you Sir! Much as some call a firearm's magazine a "clip", you defined the correct terms and conditions, clearly and accurately. It is so much easier to communicate with others when all the terms are defined. Love this vid!
Great job Corporal ! Glad to see you are still trying to educate us and also use Wednesday afternoons to train us on common subjects. Keep them coming.
This is why I enjoy your content. Not only is it good sense. You probably just saved lives by sharing this. As drastic as some cases would have to be for the overall survival skill. When people are out in the woods hiking and such. You just never know what type of situation you could be faced with where safe water is necessity and not readily available. Thank you. 😎👍
Rolling (or fast churning or highly agitated) boil. Some people think a rolling boil is when the bubbles start to form. Previous videos I have seen the person did not understand what a rolling boil is and I am glad you used the word agitated.
One actually great use of the bleach method is for extended natural disaster situations where you want to conserve fuel. After certain natural disasters, you might be under a boil order AND have lost use of your house's stove, and restoration can sometimes take a week or more. Bleach can get you safe cold water to amend with boiled water to wash up for bathing. It can help extend your fuel stores when you don't know how long the boil order is going to last for things like bathing and dishes.
See! This is why I love these mid-week videos. The idea of covering the mouth of the bottle BEFORE putting it into the stream to filter the water…. SMH! Thanks again for making these.
Miniature clear glass liquor bottles have always worked great for packing a small amount of bleach. A small clean glass *hot sauce bottle should also work well. Whatever you use, test to make sure the bleach doesn't have a chemical reaction with the lid or seal, nor melts them. *Such as the small tobasco bottles in the old MREs.
I love this channel. Disinfecting the water will not remove all poisons or chemicals, I recommend filtering the water after you disinfect it. For some water you may want to distill the water also. I remember when they had a problem with certain bodies of water that would catch fire and burn in Ohio.
I have a lifestraw, a sawyer, and a big MSR filter. Their weakness is that they easily stop up. The advantage is that you immediately can drink cold water. I agree boiling is the best method. Another outstanding video! Thank you for your service.
I've tried the old Horace Kephart trick when boiling standing water of tossing some bean-sized chunks of charcoal into the water and boiling them for five minutes. It really does help with the funky taste.
One thing about filters is they clog and they clog faster if the water is dirtier. Straining with cloth (sand, rocks, etc.) and using iodine generally makes more water potable than a filter and for less money.
I really needed this today ! Almost bed ridden with my back . Videos from my favorite TH-camrs (your way at the top of the list ) make this a little more bearable ! Informative and entertaining content , and always " Awesome AF " 👍👍

Thank you! I got Giardia once, I'll take a bullet next time
I'm really enjoying these mid-week skill based videos! Thanks! That's a great way to create a dropper - First time I've seen that one.
Thank you for clarifying these terms. I want to pull up my hair and correct people but I have given up long ago now I will just send them to this video.
Thankyou Sean, for the in depth class on water safety consumption. Its a big help, brother 🙂
These midweek videos are great, but TH-cam is sending out notifications about 20 hours after you post them. Thank you sir, keep up the great work!

These mid week videos are becoming my favorites
Thanks! Great information.
Great information!!! This info should be preached more often from all bushcrafters. Keep up the good work and God bless.
Great point on why filtering before boiling needs to be considered if it’s even needed. 😎🇺🇸
I love the video Shawn. Brings back memories of when I was a medic in the Army, and having to disinfect our drinking water. I love your mid-week videos just as much as your sunday bushcraft videos. Outstanding AF!!
you should make a desalination video for using salt or brackish water .Many cities have brackish rivers and little access to fresh water.
This was great and educational. Please do more like this. Thank you for making these.

Very cool improvised dropper, Sean. Thanks!
Keep posting these useful short vids corporal its a darn shame you don't get the viewings you need cause you always work hard but useful things too.
These are important steps people don’t always think of. Like you said water is life.
I needed this refresher, Marine. You used to beat this into our heads in your early vids. Thankfully, I remembered most of it because of that fact.
I love what you do Corp. TY for being a strong Human. We noticed
These mid week videos are awesome. Great little lessons for the kids, then practical application and...voila! Learning occurs! Great Great stuff.
Good video! Thanks for making the distinction between straining and filtering, purifying and disinfecting.
A great lesson of some & a great review for others.
Thanks!
Great job Corporal ! Glad to see you are still trying to educate us and also use Wednesday afternoons to train us on common subjects. Keep them coming.
Good & clear info for people who don't understand the way to make water potable.
Solo overnight pillow fort.
Ok, hear me out. Use waifu pillows, but still fill them with sand lol
Dude is going all out.
Careful out there.
You also have to wear pjs and slippers instead of proper outdoor clothing lol
Solo overnight pillow fort, in the hood.
Solo overnight pillow fort at Michael Jackson’s house
Great informative videos.
Awesome ...on point as always..😮👍
Corporal demonstrates safe water 3 ways for the win! Notified! Educated! Appreciative!
Thanks Shawn… good info!
Water is so important in any situation, it’s worth taking a little more detailed look / re-look.

Thanks for showing the improvised paracord dropper ,those instructions don't come in the box. Keep on keeping on.
Good stuff Kelly, you are a good teacher and could save lots of people from the nasties.
Good job excellent information 👍👏👌

I have a lifestraw, a sawyer, and a big MSR filter. Their weakness is that they easily stop up. The advantage is that you immediately can drink cold water. I agree boiling is the best method.
Another outstanding video!
Thank you for your service.

I've tried the old Horace Kephart trick when boiling standing water of tossing some bean-sized chunks of charcoal into the water and boiling them for five minutes.
It really does help with the funky taste.
Again, great informative video.
Semper Fi!!
Excellent topic and well laid out!!!! So, in short….another OUTSTANDING AF video sir.
Excellent information!
Iodine, my favorite multi-tasking item in my day kit. A pouch of drink mix helps cover the taste.
Thank You for a most informative and important video. You are a wonderful instructor and enjoying to watch.

Thank you for clarifying the things on purification on water maybe some of these people will start saying the right things in the proper way
Man! This is one of the best series you have put out there. Important instruction made simple and direct. Fabulous!

Thanks Corporal for sharing this information. Nice to have a review of the methods to make water safe to drink. 😁😁

Water is always underestimated, as everyone has it all day everywhere - on tap 24/7, & people get complacent with its availability.
“CC” excellent content ❤️👍✌️
Great as always!

Love this!
