There are times I wonder about this. If and when I have the cash my intention is to organise a group of around 20 people, buy a warehouse (something in the 30x30m range), 4 unimogs, 3 preferably armoured offroad vehicles and the equipment needed to establish basic farming, power supply etc. A fair amount of high illegal weaponary would be wise as well. In the event of something happening that suggests it's time to high-tail it, meet up, whoever gets there in time comes and get going. Of course if I was back in melbourne it'd make more sense to convert a fishing vessel and head to the uncharted wilds of Tasmania.

Your little scenario does get less and less realistic though. It would be facinating to read all the classified 'what ifs' that the US govt brainstorms, instructions for silo commanders in the event of a chain of command colapse etc. every few years the aussie does an informal survey - in the event of a chain of command colapse or similar event would your loyalty lie with the government of the day, the head of the military or your CO, overwhelming answer is always the CO.

If anyone is wondering this is not related to the 4x4 discussion in LJs forum, it did educate me a little though.
