------------------------------------------------------------------------
This month Aaron Jones has a number of topic he will be covering at the 
PLUG Security meeting.

*Part 1*:
In light of recent events occurring in New Zealand we will discuss 
active shooter situations, terrorism, and physical security. We will 
cover the OODA Loop, mental toughness, and steps you can take to prepare 
for emergency situations. Topics will include threat avoidance, the 
Marine Corp Combat Hunter Program concept of 'Left Of Bang', and basic 
combat life saver tools and techniques.

*Part 2*:
PirateBox is a DIY anonymous offline file sharing device that you can 
create at home. The PirateBox is a simple method to get started with 
mesh networking and is an exciting way to provide decentralized 
communication in your local area. We will discuss how PirateBox and 
similar projects can improve your ability to communicate in a grid down 
situation, assist with file sharing at parties or events, and even work 
as a fun image board.*
