JJ Morris … Search & Rescue Expert, Former SAR TECH
J.J. grew up on a tree farm, blazing trails along the Chattahoochee River. As an adult, he moved to the North Georgia mountains to pursue nuisance hunting. Establishing himself as a proficient tracker that led way to 14 years on a Special Operations, government-funded Search & Rescue team. There he became an Alpha Squad Leader, EMT and Rope Tech on his way to becoming a SAR-1.
His time in professional rescue served as a catalyst to help as many people as he could. During this time, he trained members of the military, law enforcement and first responders.
Not stopping there, he founded FUEL the FIRES: a co-op of self-reliance educators whose goal is to train as many men, women and children as they can. Today he finds himself leading the F.T.F. Tribe and producing online content that empowers others to blaze a path worthy of following.

Syed Khalid Muhammad … A seasoned strategist & thought leader with over 30 years of experience spanning security, technology, marketing & management
Khalid is our key intelligence SME on the Survival Dispatch News podcast. He brings a wealth of high level experience and knowledge to the table.
Before launching CommandEleven in 2015, he built a strong footing between 1991 and 2013 in the tech and marketing sectors – deploying international ERP systems, designing sophisticated data-processing algorithms, and orchestrating multi-faceted marketing campaigns across FMCG, tech, and financial industries. In 2013, he authored Agency Rules: Never an Easy Day at the Office, a trailblazing espionage novel that fictionalizes the aftermath of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. It holds the distinction of being the first English-language espionage novel by a Pakistani and achieved international bestseller status.
Since founding CommandEleven, Syed Khalid Muhammad has expanded his purview to include intelligence, risk and threat assessment, counter-terrorism, cyber security, regional conflicts, cognitive and hybrid warfare, and geopolitics. Leveraging his battlefield insights – particularly in engagements involving the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) – he developed a comprehensive human and electronic intelligence network across the Middle East, North Africa, Central Asian Republics, and the Indian subcontinent. This network underpins the firm’s capacity for delivering real-time, actionable intelligence.

Syed Khalid Muhammad is also a prominent media figure and commentator. He frequently appears on both domestic and international platforms – including al-Qahera, Russia Today, Pakistan Television, BOL News, and NeoNews – to discuss topics ranging from terrorism and geopolitics to national security and governance. His writing contributions span respected publications such as the Express Tribune, The Nation, and Hilal (the Pakistan Army’s official journal), where he addresses national security, military affairs, counter-terrorism, politics, and governance. Through CommandEleven, he continues to guide both private-sector clients and intelligence agencies, offering strategic communications, risk management, cybersecurity, and insight-driven consultancy.
Cindy Heaven, COO
Cindy was born and raised on a farm in Central Florida. She grew up tending to livestock and crops and has been a Prepper her entire life.
She also learned to be a proficient hunter at a very young age and routinely out-shoots men, much like her mother who was a sniper in WWII.
Cindy worked in her family’s fastener business in Sanford Florida for several decades. After that, she moved on to look after operations for Easy Rider, Iron Horse Saloon and The Broken Spoke. She has a very deep Rolodex of the top people in the biker event industry.
Thankfully, she looks after the Survival Dispatch operations team, which includes order fulfillment, customer service, bookkeeping and everything else that requires keen attention to detail.
Grace McCutchen, Senior Editor
Grace is a firm believer in living the self-sufficient life before disaster strikes, not only for the added peace of mind, but for the healthy, conscious lifestyle it requires you to live in the meantime. For Grace, this means building the community you can rely on, building the soil you eat from and learning how to keep your body healthy without heavy reliance on the modern medical system.
In pursuit of that goal, Grace has been growing food and raising chickens and ducks since she was 10 and pursuing an herbalist education since 17. Her future goals are to become a part of the family business on their 40-acre, electricity-free farm in southern Ohio, where they grow their own food on a working farm and host retreats to help others unplug and see what can be possible for them in connecting with their family, their land and themselves.
In the meantime, Grace will be helping to grow the base of knowledge about self-sufficiency here on Survival Dispatch while researching and implementing the sustainable land-development projects begun on their farm and taking care of our mini “starter-farm” of 8 chickens, 4 rabbits, a border collie and a miniature horse!
