EP-169 | Situational Awareness

Situational awareness is being aware of what is happening around you in terms of where you are, where you are supposed to be, and whether anyone or anything around you is a threat to your health and safety. Simply, it's the ability to identify, process, and comprehend information about how to survive in an emergency situation.

Andrew Blubaugh is a former U.S. Marine and has over 15 years of Military, Private Security and Law Enforcement experience. Andrew is a fulltime police officer, member of a county wide SWAT team and the primary firearm, tactics and use of force trainer for his agency. Additionally, Andrew spent 4 years as an adjunct instructor for the Ohio Attorney General's Office and continues to instruct with Chris Cerino Training Group and Rifle's Only.

- Is it important to every day carry (EDC)?
- What are the most important things to consider before carrying?
- What should you carry every day?
- Why is situational awareness (SA) important?
- What should we teach our kids to look for when out playing?
