Cpl. Daniel Beaulieu told TVA, Quebec's French language network, that Canadian soldiers are poorly supplied. He says the equipment they are given -- boots, pistols, vests -- are better suited for peacekeeping. Canadian soldiers are performing a combat role in southern Afghanistan, one of the...
The way I attach it is real simple. You put the small pack on your ruck the same you put it on your back. Shoulder straps go over top of the frame corners of your ruck, and then your chest strap goes under the ruck straps. I'll post a photo of the method shortly.
I like what you are trying to say here, and I think you are correct. If you are basing a decision as to who is good and bad by a vest, you probably S*** the bed! However you must also look at the RSM's prospective. Think about the liability behind his decisions to allow rigs that do not look...

For all you new guys in the Army, espeically if you're going to be a lifer in the infantry. Start treating your knees and backs with respect now, so you won't have bum joints later. Get your soles done on your MkIII's. Get a pair of Vibrams, and...
