Website with an extensive selection of military manuals for download

I found this website through the TEOTWAWKI Blog. It has dozens of military field and training manuals for free download on just about everything you can think of.

I almost turned into a zombie last night because of this site.

Scroll. Click. Save. Scroll. Click. Save...

I didn't even make a dent in it.

Awesome collection.

Anyone gone through them all? I'm assuming not all 500 are needed. I figured 5-10 would cover most all civilian basics. Happen to know what those are? LOL

Unfortunately my computer does not want to recognize those files for some reason.

Adobe refuses to work. Anyone know how to get it to open the files?

Everything on medical care. Base defense, small unit tactics and an eagle scout manual.

Eagle Scout Manual??!! Why didn't you say so!

Prob'ly the single most valuable document on the site.

Ha, well I don't know if the Eagle Scout manual is on there or any other Boy Scout manuals are, but they are probably more relevant that 98% of the military manuals you'll find there. I didn't scroll through 500 FMs, but I know enough about Army manuals to know that the majority of them are useless. The ones that are useful in their practice probably would have zero civilian utility. Base defense and small unit tactics (7-8 or Ranger Handbook) would be the only useful ones I could think of in regard to military-style tactics. Probably the most relevant and important in SHTF would be medical... both routine and trauma stuff. If I could only pick one I'd say medical manuals. The tactical stuff tends to teach itself out of necessity.

Steve's pages are pretty darned awesome, and very extensive.

I've downloaded a bunch of Firearm's Related pdf's from him over the past few years. Firearm's pdf Link.

Yeah that Boy Scout manuals would probably do you very well if you needed them. They cover just about everything, I would know after having to look through that book over the span of 11 years in Boy Scouts.
