Even concrete can’t stop spec ops…
John Robinson
| A couple years back, I heard a story that changed how I think about survival gear forever. It was about a group of Special Forces operators who found themselves in a death trap (not an uncommon occurrence). They were pinned down in a concrete building, enemy fire raining down on them for three straight days. No way out… no rescue coming… Just solid concrete walls between them and freedom. I've been in some tight spots myself, but I can't imagine what was going through their heads after that third day... And what they did next still amazes me... They chopped their way straight through a concrete wall to escape. Not with explosives, or power tools, or any of the high-tech gear you might expect. They used a simple tool that one of the operators later swore he'd "never deploy without" again. Here's why I'm telling you this... After years in the CIA, I learned that sometimes the simplest tools are the most reliable. That's why I keep one of these in my car and another in my bug out bag. ABC News even confirmed what I've seen firsthand - Air Force security groups, Army Rangers, and special forces are all adding these to their basic gear. I managed to get my hands on a small batch of these ultralight tactical tools. The same type those operators used. Want to see what those Special Forces guys used to escape?  Click here to see it.
