This is a Survival Manual / Guide based on the ( public domain ) US Army Survival Field-Manual FM 21-76 

It is fully working offline ( which is important in a case of catastrophy )

It contains info on how to make fire, build a shelter, heal and other useful stuff in a case of emergency.

Background:

In the mist of the current political situation ( Trump & Hillary in USA, AfD in Germany ) I had to prepare for doomsday scenarios and was searching for a good Survival Guide that I can use offline - there where some but none of them where really good & fitting. Also there was none free software on FDroid. Hence I was writing this Software.
