If in a friendly area, one way you can gain rapport with the natives is to show interest in their tools and
how they get food and water. By studying the people, you learn to respect them, you often make valuable
friends, and, most important, you learn how to adapt to their environment and increase your chances of
survival.

L -Live by Your Wits, But for Now, Learn Basic Skills
Without training in basic skills for surviving and evading on the battlefield, your chances of living
through a combat survival and evasion situation are slight.
Learn these basic skills now--not when you are headed for or are in the battle. How you decide to equip
yourself before deployment will impact on whether or not you survive. You need to know about the
environment to which you are going, and you must practice basic skills geared to that environment. For
instance, if you are going to a desert, you need to know how to get water in the desert.

There is a psychology to survival. The soldier in a survival environment faces many stresses
that ultimately impact on his mind. These stresses can produce thoughts and emotions that,
if poorly understood, can transform a confident, well-trained soldier into an indecisive,
ineffective individual with questionable ability to survive. Thus, every soldier must be aware
of and be able to recognize those stresses commonly associated with survival. Additionally,
it is imperative that soldiers be aware of their reactions to the wide variety of stresses
associated with survival. This chapter will identify and explain the nature of stress, the
stresses of survival, and those internal reactions soldiers will naturally experience when
faced with the stresses of a real-world survival situation. The knowledge you, the soldier,
gain from this chapter and other chapters in this manual, will prepare you to come through
the toughest times alive.

Your mission as a soldier in a survival situation is to stay alive. As you can see, you are going to
experience an assortment of thoughts and emotions. These can work for you, or they can work to your
downfall. Fear, anxiety, anger, frustration, guilt, depression, and loneliness are all possible reactions to
the many stresses common to survival. These reactions, when controlled in a healthy way, help to
increase a soldier's likelihood of surviving. They prompt the soldier to pay more attention in training, to
fight back when scared, to take actions that ensure sustenance and security, to keep faith with his fellow
soldiers, and to strive against large odds. When the survivor cannot control these reactions in a healthy
way, they can bring him to a standstill. Instead of rallying his internal resources, the soldier listens to his
internal fears. This soldier experiences psychological defeat long before he physically succumbs.
Remember, survival is natural to everyone; being unexpectedly thrust into the life and death struggle of
survival is not. Don't be afraid of your "natural reactions to this unnatural situation." Prepare yourself to
rule over these reactions so they serve your ultimate interest--staying alive with the honor and dignity
associated with being an American soldier.

Be Realistic
Don't be afraid to make an honest appraisal of situations. See circumstances as they are, not as you want
them to be. Keep your hopes and expectations within the estimate of the situation. When you go into a
survival setting with unrealistic expectations, you may be laying the groundwork for bitter
disappointment. Follow the adage, "Hope for the best, prepare for the worst." It is much easier to adjust
to pleasant surprises about one's unexpected good fortunes than to be upset by one's unexpected harsh
circumstances.

Remind Yourself What Is at Stake
Remember, failure to prepare yourself psychologically to cope with survival leads to reactions such as
depression, carelessness, inattention, loss of confidence, poor decision-making, and giving up before the
body gives in. At stake is your life and the lives of others who are depending on you to do your share.
Train
Through military training and life experiences, begin today to prepare yourself to cope with the rigors of
survival. Demonstrating your skills in training will give you the confidence to call upon them should the
need arise. Remember, the more realistic the training, the less overwhelming an actual survival setting
will be.
