In a two-hole binder with stiff card covers. Name in ink at top of title page. This Manual was designed for use of students in the Air Force survival training courses. It amplifies AFM 64-5, Survival, by including training information not covered in the kit edition because of weight and size limitations. AFM 64-3 can also be used as a source book for survival information. It includes much detailed information which would have been beyond the intended scope of the smaller publication; it tells the reader not only what he must do but also why he must do it. More
