Just got back from a 2 1/2 mile ruck march for PT. Good exercise, but, boy am I sore. The rucksacks weighed about 70 pounds with all our stuff in them, plus our gas mask and lbe. Good exercise, but I bet I feel it tomorrow. I wonder what they will come up for us on Friday.

Ahhhh, that massage feels good! I have to wonder how poor Sam managed, what with being so small and all. That pack had to wiegh at twice as much as he did!

Lol, that's what I said the first time I heard it. Load Bearing Equipment. It's the mesh thing we wear that holds ammo and our canteen and buckles in the front. I don't think I have a picture of it, but it basically is a harness type thing. Sorta.

Leave it to the government to call a piece of mesh 'load bearing equipment'. What do they call forks? "Ration Excavation Equipment"?

Naw, I think those are personal nutrition utensils, and a toothbrush is a personal hygien improver.
