Whether it’s a dirty bomb or a missile strike, knowing what to do in the event of a nuclear attack is important. This isn’t an everyday emergency – hopefully, we’ll never need to use any of these resources. But if current events have you stressed, check out the resources below and make some preparations.
Let me reiterate this: I am not warning of any kind of imminent nuclear attack. While anything can happen, this is strictly a roundup of nuclear preparedness resources, because I’d rather be ready and not need it than need it and not be ready.

On-Demand Webinar
A while back, we recorded a webinar with my good friend Chuck Hudson who spent several hours with us to share his knowledge about nuclear attacks.
He is a retired Army Ranger medic who specialized in nuclear, chemical, and biological warfare during his time in the service. He has been an NBC since 1981 and became a medic in 1983 for the HHC 1/75th. As he increased in rank, he went from a Decon/Recon specialist to taking part in weather forecasting for fallout, performing offensive NBC planning. He went to Leningrad (modern-day St. Petersburg) as part of a team to monitor the radiation plume from Chernobyl as it crossed to Finland. Chuck has served in combat zones around the world and works in the civilian medical field today.
Best of all, he’s a prepper, just like us, so he understands the kind of information we are seeking and he provides it in plain English without all the jargon.
A lot of people have this image of a nuclear wasteland, barren and desolate, but this is not the case. If you are not at Ground Zero, this is entirely survivable as long as you know what to do to give yourself a fighting chance. That is what preppers are all about: giving ourselves the best possible chance when the chips are down.

Be prepared instead of scared.
I’m not posting these resources because I think that nuclear warheads are looming over us. But in volatile situations, anything can happen. I’d rather know what to expect so I can prep for it and think through my situation than be taken completely by surprise if the worst should happen. The steps I take to learn more are steps that protect the people I love.
Are you concerned about the possibility of a nuclear attack or a dirty bomb? Do you have a plan in place?
Let’s discuss it in the comments section.

I was concerned in March 2022, and was extremely interested in the articles posted here and at other sites. As a result of reading your articles, I prepared our downstairs bathroom to be our relatively safe location. I measured indoors and out, and if we lay flat on the floor, there would be one foot of shielding earth on the other side of the wall. I put a folding card table in the bathroom with sleeping bags underneath and coild pile lightweight mass like clothes on top. Pile books from the bookshelf in the living room on the spot in the kitchen directly above the downstairs bathroom. Fill two Sterilite boxes against the wall on the outside with water from the hose if there were enough warning. Put the dog and cats in carry cases in the bookroom next to the downstairs bathroom. Tape plastic sheets over the edges of the closed doors. Only for two hours in the case of the inside of the bathroom door. Stand the mattress from the downstairs bed against the basement window above the bed. Food and water near the bathroom. I put potassium iodide in the medicine cabinet in the downstairs bathroom.
I feel safer having made a plan and some preps. But I don’t anticipate an attack. We are a couple of hours east of Whiteman AFB, which would definitely be struck with ground bursts. Cities would probably receive air bursts, less likely to produce fallout. The radiation would probably blow to the south-east from ground zero.
Europe is more likely to be struck, and has expressed a dangerous level of aggression. Putin is very cautious and sane: I am not afraid of him attacking us, at least where we live. I don’t know enough about China to assess the danger from it. The US mainland is not in danger from Iran, but our military bases in the Middle East may be. But this is exactly the situation they were built to handle.
You poor creatures…
What, are you implying that the “nuclear” bomb threat has used to rape many nation’s treasuries and control humanity through fear? Next thing you know you will be linking people to this video:
