It was Heinlein in his Starship Troopers that had Juan Rico state the following observation during his tour in O.C.S. Rico was reflecting on the H&MP course he was taking during OCS. "Man is what he is, a wild animal with the will to survive, and (so far) the ability, against all competition."
Pretty graphic. And I fear, all too accurate.

I agree with ducking and hiding. I would certainly not be out looting and I would also not have ovens baking great smelling bread. Best course of action is to lay low and let things run their course. Nature would take its course.
As an aside, starship troopers was required reading when I was at OCS. Can't remember who wrote it, but its a guy who really was a good soldier and NCO and must have gone on to be a great officer.
