This volume is the third in a series of books that Battles & Book Reviews Publishing is releasing that encompass reprints of public domain US Military manuals that are useful to the prepping community.This book contains the full text and images contained within the July 2013 version of Field manual 10-16: General Fabric Repair.This may seem a strange choice for inclusion in a series of military manuals chosen for their usefulness in disaster/SHTF scenarios. However, if you stop & think, it makes a certain kind of sense. How many people are sewing experts? While this manual talks about machine sewing it also has an extensive section on hand sewing with a discussion of the minimum required tools to make field expedient repairs to fabric items from clothing to tentage skills that are seldom used in normal life but can come in very handy when what you have with you is all that you are going to have.The contents of this volume are a faithful, cleaned up edition of this manual that has been formatted to fit the paper size.Further volumes in this series are forthcoming
