A Survivor of Nuclear Meltdown and Government Collapse Shares His Insight on Preparedness

FROM BELARUS WITH LOVE

I first met Greg Mihovich while training at Deep Woods Ranch, home to former SEAL and firearms trainer Rich Graham - owner of both Deep Woods Ranch and his training company, Full Spectrum Warrior. Greg and Rich are coauthors of some of FSW's training material, including their unique Combat Mobility Program, which we'll showcase in more depth in an upcoming issue.

During my time at the ranch, I had an opportunity to sit down with Greg and discuss his background and the experiences that brought him to partnering up with Full Spectrum Warrior. I was quite surprised to learn about the landmark disasters that had tested this soft-spoken man with a calmly commanding presence. His story is not only a Cinderella-slipper fit for the guiding principles of this brand but is also chock full of the realest of real-life lessons about living preparedness as a lifestyle and the risks of complacency.

RECOIL OFFGRID: Tell us a little bit about your background and childhood growing up in the USSR.

Greg Mihovich: I was an early '80s child, born in Minsk – the capital of Belarus. My parents split early, and I was raised by my mother, stepdad, and grandparents on my mom's side.

My mother was the creator and director of the Center for Esthetic Development, a project she built in 1984. The CED focused on preschool education in speech development, motor learning development, music, drawing, and other age-specific topics. It successfully operated about 12 schools with 400 kids each, aged 4 to 6.

My stepdad was a police officer with 10 years spent in narcotics, 10 years in homicide, and the last five years of his career as a dean of the five-year police university program. Many of the city's cops were his alumni.
