Roots are starchiest between autumn and spring. All roots should be thoroughly cooked. Scrub in clean water, boil until soft, then roast on hot stones in embers. To cook more rapidly, cut into cubes. Use a sharpened stick to test if they are done.

SAS 155 - Diseases
When in water, the survivor is more likely to be exposed to water - borne diseases, or those carried by insects and animals. Tropical diseases are less familiar and will therefore be dealt with here in more detail. Where drugs are not available, treatment is largely a matter of dealing with symptoms and making patient comfortable.

By day smoke is good locator. Have a supply of smoke-producing material ready to put on your fires. Smoke not only helps rescue aircraft find you, it also shows surface wind direction. Make sure smoke is downwind of landing site and of any panel codes you have laid so it does not obscure them from above.

Survival at Sea: Four-Fifths of the Earth's surface is open water - the most difficult environment in which to survive. Water and wind rapidly chill the body. Alone in cold water your chances are not good without equipment. If you know your location you may be able to predict where the currents will carry you.

SAS 118 - Moving
Negotiating territory at night can be dangerous, but may be necessary. Because it is difficult to see clearly you are easily disorientated. It is always darker among trees, so keep to open country if you can. When looking at an object at night, look at one side rather than directly at it. It is hard to distinguish anything in a dark mass, but edges show clearly.
