re: If the USA was invaded what would you do?

I will bite.

1. Where would you go?

---

Family land. 1500 acres in the foothills of a mountain. only 2 ways in, both are able to be defended from one vantage point. The drive to get on the property itself is 2 miles through an open pasture. We have a 3 freshwater springs, a creek, 5 ponds, and one large lake that also creates a moat around the backside of the property. Have cattle, horses, and dogs on the property. Also have 4 tractors, a bulldozer, a roadgrader, several ATVs, and several tanks of diesel fuel. There is a national guard armory on the way there, would probably stop by and requisition some vehicles.

2. What would you bring?

Seeds, fruit tree seedlings, canned food, weapons, ammo, tools, blankets, wetstone, paint, plenty of barchain and engine oil, and as many of my books as I could pack in my car.

3. How many people would you tell?

---

Family would all be there, would probably tell close friends and as many people from our church as we could get there(it is a small church). Also would bring friends who I know own a small arsenal. WHen you have that much land, having a large compound makes sustaining easier. More people to work crops, build homes, etc...

4. How long do you think you could survive/stay free?

Several years at least. Our land is in the backside of nowhere. I doubt anyone would find it prudent to come and bother us. If they did, repelling invaders would not be difficult, unless they had air support.


All of that being said, I am much more likely to do that trying to escape our own government than an invading one. The logistics, of trying to get a force large enough to physically invade the US with any amount success, are almost impossible. If not completely so.
