Looking at the UK, which is absolutely unprepared, ignorant and relaxed. Europe is taking serious steps, and people are far more serious about it. Without a mobile network, internet, power and water, Brits would be lost in seconds and panicking.
Can you please drop the word civilian. It's an Americanism that separate between the army and everyone else implying the military is inherently better. We can see how that's going for them. Nothing wrong with saying polish people take army courses 👍
Canadian here, we can't wait for our army to train us in the 300,000 civil army. The time is now.
Pozdrawiam 🙂The purpose of these courses is simply to introduce people to what the full training involves. Everyone knows that one or two days isn't enough to develop real proficiency.
Still, they help participants understand what a more comprehensive civilian training program would be like.
