Key Figures

Mike Glover

Glover was born on March 5, 1974, in Pocatello, Idaho. He enlisted in the United States Army from high school and has stated that he sought challenges that would push his physical and mental limits. Glover’s military experience has been essential to his subsequent career in survivalism, including the publication of Prepared.

In the early 1990s, Glover trained within the army to join the Special Forces, becoming a “Green Beret.” The Special Forces Qualification Course tests candidates in unconventional warfare, foreign languages, and a wide range of specialized skills. Glover’s time in the Special Forces included overseas deployments, where he played a role in both counterterrorism and special operations missions.

In 2006, Glover retired from the Army to pursue a career in tactical skills and preparedness. He founded Fieldcraft Survival, a company that provides individuals, law enforcement, and military personnel with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate and overcome challenging situations. Fieldcraft Survival offers a range of courses from survival skills and self-defense to emergency medical techniques. Prepared is a continuation of Glover’s business enterprise and a means to widen its audience. The book mentions Glover’s profile and encourages the reader to engage with survivalism, making them potential consumers for Fieldcraft Survival.
