About this episode

The episode discusses how to map your operational environment and assess threats before a disaster occurs.

Chin brought his notes from Mike Shelby's handbook and we walked through threat categories, the likelihood-impact matrix, the six layers of your operational environment, METT-TC for civilians, and the full list of January & February 2026 disasters with dates and serious impacts. Read the complete guide and start sketching your AO this weekend.
