Whats a BOB? - A bug out bag.
A bug-out bag is a portable kit that contains the items
one would require to survive for seventy-two hours when evacuating from a
disaster. The focus is on evacuation, rather than long-term survival,
distinguishing the bug-out bag from a survival
kit, a boating or aviation emergency kit, or a fixed-site disaster supplies
kit. The kits are also popular in the survivalism subculture.
The term "bug-out bag" is related to, and possibly
derived from, the "bail-out bag" emergency kit many military aviators
carry.In the United States, the term refers to the Korean War practice of the
U.S. Army designating alternate defensive positions, in the event that the
unit(s)had to displace. They were directed to "Bug-out" when being
overrun was imminent. The concept passed into wide usage among other military
and law enforcement personnel, though the "bail-out bag" is as likely
to include emergency gear for going into an emergency situation as for escaping
an emergency.
Other names for such a bag are a "72-hour kit",a
"grab bag",a "battle box", a "Personal Emergency
Relocation Kits" (PERK), a "go bag" or a "GOOD bag"
(Get Out Of Dodge).
