Remember when cooking that smell is the first thing an opposing force will notice over long distances. Smoke may not be seen but can be smelled as well as what you're cooking. Use of any fire and/or cooking needs to be as rapid as possible. Something else that needs stressed is hand signaling/sign language/Morse code. Silence is your best friend so learn skills to maintain that silence.
And now you know. And knowing is half the battle. I like seeing the old LBE.
Thank you for this video.
Hope you had a peaceful veteran's day. Thank you for you service and sacrifice. And many thanks to Mrs. Stoker for holding down the home base.
I’ve recently become homeless in an urban environment. I’m ex-military but I was airforce. So I’m hoping by using these videos I can keep safe and hidden at night and keep working during the day. Thank you for these videos. Gonna follow everything to a T.
brazilian army trick: carry a drink powder packet (ie TANG or koolaid) taped to your chemical purifying tablets. helps with the taste (i dont mind that much but some cant stomach it) and gives a small amount of sugar/sodium which are in short supply out there.
These are great tips for any hiking / camping too...
Thank you
Just helping to keep your flask full. Good stuff. 👍
I used the heat tab before. Even with the old sea rats.
Waxing and waning moon for North / South indicator is a good tip to know to compensate for the North Star not being visible .
Enjoyed the video! 🥃🍻🪂👍🏻🇺🇸
Didi mua, pop smoke, and CM. Love the vocab. Stoker. It’s like it’s 1983 and I’m reading a Vietnam war story from the pages of Robert K. Brown’s SOF magazine. I’ll be watching for a reference to the RLI motto in a future video.
Great aerial shot of the VS panel. Its amazing how far you can see them.
great video.. thanks for sharing
I like your voice-over videos. Helps me to focus on the skills you are demonstrating.
Agreed, having the voiceover describing what’s going on in this video is helpful. Much appreciated
Another good video Bill!
And a belated happy Veterans day to all my fellow Vets out there!

I did not know the north south moon trick. Thank you very much for that information.
Alot a bit of Tears...gets me in trouble... Drink from the pool of tears wisely...
First garand thumb and now this
Great video. Did not know the moon trick.
Finished the basic survival course at the pathfinder school, learned a lot I know I have to get in shape for the intermediate course coming up next year
The trioxane heat tabs work great, but YES the fumes coming off are horrendous!
I have used them, and yes sir, they put off some serious fumes that can leave you feeling not stoked if you inhale them🤢😅. Thank you for the content Stoker!👍🏽💪🏽🤘🏽
Vasoline- or wax-impregnated cotton balls/pads work just as well without the CS gas smell! Love the Esbit stove!
You are correct regards Trioxane tabs brother
Good video
Thanks for the tutorial. I learned some new ideas
Good stuff Top, and you got a good companion there. Stay safe out there-
Excellent Presentation ! Thank You For Sharing !
1 or 2 drops of 2% tincture of iodine per quart, depending on turbidity, does the same thing as tablets. Wait 30 min. for 1 or 60 for 2 drops. Always rinse cap and threads, etc.
Awesome! Thanks, Stoker!!
Great video assembly! Beautiful scenes and skill lessons too! Nice packs!
Stoker buddy, when are you coming to the U.P. ? I've got an area for you to do your thing at. Rough rugged, twisted winding punishing terrain, with all the natural downed trees and creek bends, bluffs and valleys. It's a bitch to navigate.
here is some more tears for your flask. thanks for the video.
C'mon zoomie, send help to me!
I was taught about navigating by the moon, Orion and a couple of other star formations a few years ago by a guy that lived in a shack on the edge of the woods.
Sounds like Fun...
Your doing awesome things love you show buddy
I just find this like military survival stuff just cool and so crazy how crafty you guys get
Good info top, another version of the Dakota hole you did is a Snake Hole where the vertical shaft is kept smaller and used as a chimney.
I actually have a geo press, pretty cool kit, carry an extra filter
Been watching you since 'rona times and like your videos.
Keep it going!
Wow
sharing
Love ur videos really do appreciate them !
Dakota fire pit
Build the fire near the base of a tree the branches will help diffuse the smoke and break it apart so its not as noticeable from a distance
Strip the bark off the wood you plan to burn it will not smoke as much without the bark on the wood
@@alfanika2934
Thats why you dont build a fire when people are actively searching for you and then you only build a fire when you are going to die of exposure without one.
In a wilderness survival setting fire is a given in a military survival setting as this video title suggest fire is an all around bad idea unless see above
Always have Trioxane in my pack...Used it for years. 😊 Good video.
Hey, I just got a copy of your book today. Haven't had a chance to read it yet, but it looks like there is a ton of useful info in there.
I do have water purification tablets but I much prefer a filter pump, not just for convenience but for the rapid ability to obtain potable drinking water. 👍
As always, lots of great advice !!!
Good video, thanks for sharing, God bless !
Good video, you're going to need a bigger flask! If you're using a Dakota fire hole for stealth reasons then lay out a cloth or poncho next to where you're going to dig. Cut out a plug of vegetation (if any) for both holes and place on poncho and then dig your holes placing the dirt on the poncho as well. When you're done with it, refill the holes in reverse, tapping down the dirt as you go and then replace the plugs! If you're having too much smoke, then your wood is too damp (don't use wood laying directly on the ground) or you're not getting enough air flow so fan or blown into the bottom/ inlet hole. Thank you for emphasizing getting enough water as you can get dehydrated much easier than you think and if you're not urinating much or your urine is dark yellow then you're dehydrated!
Great info as always 👍
👍
Haha. 6:45 nah, he cares, he probably just has an uncanny way of telling that you were just playing.
🤣
Something i would recommend when in a covert survival situation is to always save some of your charcoal whenever possible to make a water filter down the trail. It's not perfect but it does help.
I remember using those cookers way back in the early eighties for the first time (-25 in a blizzard), loved it, made great coffee to tip the whisky into!
Ever since I learned about and used the MIOX system for water treatment I have a had a hard time going back to dropping pills..as always great advice and tips. Thanks for sharing
do you do any classes for navigation or anything like that. You have a lot of knowledge and I definitely take a class if you had any kind of thing like that
Learn how to make Pemmican and get a few hand tools and start going out for overnights in every season! Get used to the outdoors! That’s not going to be easy for all people attached to their phones and pc’s
Some good tips, Top. I have a question for another subject. What are the best military field boots for cold and wet conditions?
Good video!
It's g00d t0 see y0u again, St0ker :)
Good tips on survival Top. Keep up the good work. BTW, the Air Force always cares about the grunts. I'm sure he was on his radio laughing at your ass. 😅
And -- a belated Happy Veterans Day.
Very good video ❤
🌙 wow that is so cool !!
Thanks for the tips from this relatively new survivalist. Some I knew of, some I didn't.
Some water filters will filter out the iodine taste so you can make decent coffee. The Dakota fire pit will keep your shelter warm at night if you put a rock lid on it. Place your shelter over the pit and the rock will keep your shelter from catching on fire. There was a rock the right sized close to the pit you were digging. Fire tabs will start a fire also. Especially if all you have is wet wood. GeoPress looks good. 1.25 micron filter gets most of what you'll run into. Viruses are sub micron though so if you're concerned about them you'll still need to boil or iodine. Millbank bags are interesting too. They get the big chunks.
Keep ‘em coming top, just curious what’s in the flask?
Commie Tears. Typically bourbon flavored
Great video Stoker keep'em coming bud. Wishing you and yours the best. Stay safe and be well brother. 👊😎🤙🔥🍻🇺🇸
YT is really pissing me off I've been a sub to your channel for a long time watching this video I decided to double check my sub and seen that it was disabled so I resubscribed your channel isn't the only one they've done this to. People might want to check their sub status.
👍👍
One last thing-repelling. Who all has their air assault badges? You should be retraining regularly so you can pass on that knowledge, people don't consider that in some instances even in the U. S. you may have to walk 20 miles around steep cliffs to get to your destination vs being able to repel down and climb up these cliffs saving valuable time and energy.
Look up tree service climbing for some interesting ways to get through areas efficiently by use of trees.
Truth! Just found a spot to work on it some more.
@@the1stnostagefright I don't have a air assault badge, but I did plenty of training in Fologria, Northern Italy back in 89-92. Also at Marche-les-Dames(Belgian Commando) and Ranger school also. Course now days, climbing is out for me. 🤣 Cheers! 🥃🍻🪂👍🏻🇺🇸
Have never used a heating tab. No C4?
Unless finances are a concern... reviewing gear that maximizes effectiveness and minimizes effort, obviously to save calories.. not all knives are equal, not all axes are the same, ounces = pounds and pounds = pain.
I tried to leave some questions but you are in the field too much to answer though. Lol. Wish I had the drive to do this.
lets get a video of home invasion prevention in the woods?
Use Esbit instead of the trioxiane tablets, they are non toxic and you can use them in your tent.
When I joined the army reserves, TA , in the UK, many , many, years ago, we were told that when fuel tabs were first used in the Korean War they were unscented. Troops started using the fuel tablets in hunkered down dugouts during the harsh Korean winters. This resulted in carbon monoxide poisoning casualties. Therefore the distinct smell was added to fuel tablets to make folk aware of the dangers. Perhaps someone else can confirm this.
@@alfanika2934 The "problem" was adequately answered by the esteemed British academic Dr Fiona Hill , Chancellor of the University of Durham, Senior Fellow of the Brookings Institute , member of The Harvard Board of Overseers. She was presenting a high-brow lecture , one of the BBC Radio 4, Lord Reith Commemorative Lectures. The subject was "Roosevelt's 4 Freedoms of 1945". She said , after living in Russia for two years, . . . " After studying Putin and following his career for decades I have come to this conclusion; . . . "THE MAN IS A ARSE" ! . . .
Now that we have solved that problem, what remarks have you got regarding fuel tablets ?
I've never seen the metal lid for the canteen cup, but then again, I was issued my first one in 1985. Can those be purchased separately?
They sure can
amzn.to/47r2VYH
The Rothco lids dont fit US surplus canteen cups very well- better than nothing, but a piece of foil is also better than nothing. They fit the Rothco cups better. Just a slightly different shape. The stove/ stand fits both pretty well, its malleable enough to bend slightly to fit either.
always police up your perimeter for trash
Why are you against using night vision?
Fill that flask.
What do you do in a situation if a grizzly bear is coming
Be bigger than SAID Bear...
Be faster than the guy next to ya.
@@STOKERMATIC hahaha right
Make noise, bears generally avoid people and a surprised bear or momma with cub is very dangerous! Try to make yourself look larger but don't charge the bear because if it calls your bluff then you're about to be recycled! Hopefully you carry bear spray and/or a firearm just in case the bear is sick or very hungry (we're not normally prey). Also, I always use a stout walking stick (and a handgun) because they're very helpful in the Rockies and striking a tree or the ground with your stick will get the bears attention; they usually avoid fights when possible! Last thing, never run from a bear, if it hasn't noticed you and its not heading toward you, then be still and quiet until its been out-of-sight for at least ten minutes. Their sight isn't supposed to be as good as a humans but their sense of smell and hearing are much better than ours! If the bear's heading toward you, then start making some noise low at first then gradually increase so the bear will know that you're getting closer and has the opportunity to run away. Remember, a bear can outrun a horse for a short distance, you can't! And never follow a bear because if they sense you they might ambush you and then your chance of survival is almost zero! Remember, you're the visitor and they live there so they have the right of way!
😭😢Commie tears shed
🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
The USAF Pilot knew you were making a video so he didn't take it seriously. Just kidding.
When I listen to russian soldiers who got seperated or on the run, this is simply unreal.
We vets get "Thank you for your sacrifice and service". Seems many males, can`t use "MEN" with the problem recruitment is low, are their reasons more like crybabies or valid ? I think many are ready and need some positive vets words.
More great pointers, Top! I'm going to disinfect my coffee this morning with some tears of a commie!
It’s the best disinfectant!
The infamous gas chamber improvisation
Comments
Those tabs are great easy fuel. I used to get them dirt cheap but now…like so much of the milsurp stuff, has gotten stupid money! I don’t drink so my tears of a commie, would come AFTER consuming that commiebucks coffee!😎🤣👊🏻
Stay salty Stoker. Happy belated birthday 🇺🇲
NOTE ..WHEN PURIFYING UR WATER BY BOILING MAKE SURE U BOIL IT FOR A FULL 2 MINUTES..SOME SAY 1 MINUTE DOES IT BUT WHY TAKE THE CHANCE..2 MINUTES WILL ABSOLUTELY KILL ALL THE PATHOGENS..
Thank you for your service another awesome video
👍
👍👍👍
