ABOUT
The purpose of the TMAG is to bring together people that have the same ideology of being prepared to endure any natural or unforeseen disaster.

This will be accomplished by having monthly meetings and classes that will enhance the capabilities of the group, the sharing of information and hands-on training.

The goal of the group is to provide safety, security and the well-being of our families during times of local or national crisis or emergencies.

The TMAG provides protection and survival of our families by training in but not limited to medical, tactics, security, communications, survival, gardening, farming, and other forms of preparations.

Who are we? We are average American citizens. We come from various backgrounds and professions. We are nurses/doctors; lawyers; first responders; teachers; tradesmen; retirees; prior military and young families in your local communities. We are a group that is united by our moral beliefs; the belief in the Constitution of the United States of America; and the belief in being prepared and our loyalty to each other.

We are not: revolutionaries, a hate group, anti-government, a militia, or racist.

We welcome everyone to the group regardless of age, race, religion, gender or political affiliation. That you believe in our great country and the state of Texas and the Constitution of the United States as being the supreme law of our land. We are a diverse group of ordinary American citizens with a love for the USA and for Texas.

Join us for a hands-on session where we’ll create or update Emergency Binders, a must-have for emergency preparedness! Whether you're building a new binder or refreshing an old one, this interactive session will help you get organized for any emergency scenario. Bring a binder and supplies:( I do have some used binders if you need one to get started). Bring copies of area maps of your neighborhood, city, and /or state, highlighters, post-its, pencils, dividers, and page protectors. Purchase a decent size flash drive so you can input your important data at a later time. Be prepared to highlight escape routes from home/work to bug out locations. I’ll provide some handouts, important numbers and addresses, and templates to ensure your binder has enough information and plans to get you on your way to be a prepared prepper. I will also bring some privacy boards for information you may want to keep private. See you there!

Forum
Welcome to our new forum.
Here you can find a great community for sharing new ideas and talking about day to day life.

Communications

Communications team: The MOST important aspect of working together is being able to communicate. Ask for help, offer help, exchange goods, identify dangers and warn of areas to avoid. HAM radio has historically been reliable in almost every circumstance. Everyone should have the capability. Our radio of choice is the Baofeng UV-5R due to its sturdiness, reliability, power, many channels, and a cost that is affordable by many people.

Intelligence

Intelligence team: The ability to acquire information, locally and even far from our location, and be able to confirm it’s credibility and accuracy, so that proper actions can be planned, when necessary. Try to prevent having to cope with surprises, if we don’t have to! And keep rumors under control.

Medical

Medical Team: Injuries in a disaster can easily become infected and have very serious consequences. If we train in some basic first aid, and some advanced topics, we may be able to care for our neighbor (or they care for you) and stabilize their condition until a qualified medical professional is available. In a long term situation, we may have to able to protect and monitor that injury so we can continue to manage tasks, like keeping a garden for food. Every American should be trained to at least Combat Lifesaver level to provide immediate care for victims of severe trauma, whether it be a car accident, a gunshot wound, a chainsaw accident, etc. to save lives.

Preparedness

Preparedness teams: Grow lots of tomatoes? How can you store them? Canning? Sauce, ketchup even casseroles can all be prepared and stored for long term. Gardening tips, jams, meals in a jar. What items to always have with you (every day carry – EDC) Items to have in your car if you are stuck away from home. If you need to leave your home for an extended amount of time, remember to take your Bug Out Bag with you. Have you thought of everything? These team people have, and they can help you be ready before you get into that tough spot. Americans are told by FEMA to be able to self-rescue and self-supply for at least 72 hours, but clearly emergencies can last much longer. You need to be able to take care of yourselves and each other for extended periods, including effective food storage. We will show you how. Even if you are not a veteran, you are welcome to join us and get trained, and then help train others. We find that nearly everyone has some skill or life experience that is useful to the community, and we will help you pick a training track to focus on, and get trained up by more experienced team member mentors. And even if you have physical limitations that would prevent you from being on a field team, you can still help with support, security as a “home guard,” and logistics. And if you already have an existing group, such as a neighborhood watch, church group, veterans group, political or social group, we would be happy to train your group in all of the above skills. We believe that strong neighborhood watches are the most critical first steps toward a strong America, working from the bottom up to provide local security while we also strengthen what is already there (search and rescue, volunteer fire, volunteer emergency medical, CERT teams, reserve deputy and police auxiliary, etc.).

Security

Security team: How to keep a location safe from any one who sees it as a target. Being able to summon a good sized group for a show of force. Most American gun owners have little or no training in how to fight together, as a team. Whether it is a husband and wife, father and son, or neighbors, you need to know how to move, shoot, and communicate as a team. Bad guys, like MS-13 or ISIS, attack in teams. You need to know how to fight back as a team and how to form up a neighborhood watch to protect yourselves and each other. Security is everyone’s responsibility, and our infantry and police veterans will teach you how.
