Re: food, prepared pathfinder has a new video on field striping rations. Not unlike the old brent0331 video on Patrolling It shows the military way of "keep the main courses and One snack, throw away the rest" instead of carefully removing packaging but keeping everything. Rations' nutritional value Is carefully calculated, if only they'd eat the whole thing.
Schoka-kola Is good, i like the dark One more than the milk One, but If eaten on a empty stomach atleast in my experience It causes a Little discomfort. I like Aero shots as a Quick caffeine boost just in case, i have a few in my kits. |

I am aware of heavy SOG loadouts and sadly i am aware of the use of stimulants, even well into GWOT. Lots of ephedrine. That said my point is that Mr. St.Martin. in this picture has a lot of combat items. i see a Bar Belt plus a canteen full of mini grenades so around 360 rounds, 3 smokes and 5 large hand grenades, a strip of detonation charge worn crossbody, a claymore mine in the front pocket of the modified claymore bag. two pouches have antenna/radio gear (i recognize the at984 fishing reel antenna, not the other). Hanging from the belt there are 1 jungle first aid kit and 3 m1942 bandage pouches (contents unknown), same for the two first aid kit pouches on the suspenders. also extraction harness taped to the belt. On the other hand he has a just few subsistence items. I see one water canteen on his hip (no doubt he had way to purify more), the rest is in the other half of the claymore bag worn as a pack (maybe the shape inside is of a indigenous ration). There is a poncho wrapped with i think a GP strap and tied to the suspenders. I show this because it is well documented, but it's a choice he made of carrying no pack at all for a short duration mission. According to the book "Running Recon" by Frank Greco at pg.100 "One Zero John st.Martin displayting the way he organized and carried his equipment without the use of a rucksack..." Pic with same loadout is shown on page 67 prior to embarking for a mission from Dak To launch site. His colleague Ed Wolcoff is shown with a similar rucksack-less web gear. That same mission ended with an emergency extraction after 3 days, so they survived atleast 3 days with just those items. I have already said it, but lot of the packing light concept is having the phisical and mental strength to bear with discomfort, which is something you can't buy. If you think it is all due to amphetamines that is an opinion i wouldn't agree with. The C-Rats we were issued in the ’70’s had 4 inch round chocolate discs in them. They were kinda like Nestle Crunches but like a 1/4 inch thick and harder with dark chocolate added. A young fighting man could go several days with 5 or 6 of those stashed on him. John Wayne bars, those were awesome. |

The hybrid belt kit setup - buttpack / water bottle pouches with molle for ammo pouches lends well for that. You can swap on side pouches to hold snacks, calls, shells, whatever in the side pockets. OR swap them out and throw on AR mag pouches for that super spicy hunting expedition. You make me want to do a mossy oak kit even more now. And definitely name it 'The Bubba Rig'. |

I first became convinced of a belt kit's utility living and hiking in the Southwest (with British P58 no less): most of the weight on the hips, plenty of storage, and my chest and back (assuming no pack) left open to ventilate freely. What you and I are getting is that there is a lot of crossover outside of the 'tacticool' realm. |

What you and I are getting is that there is a lot of crossover outside of the 'tacticool' realm. Absolutely agree. I've actually got one of my prototype belts that I'm re-purposing (slowly as I have time) to use as a kinda-lumbar pack setup. Basically stripping it down to just a buttpack and 2 water bottle pouches, molle on the sides if I wanted to slap on a snack pouch or something. Going to use it for short hiking day trips. WORLDS better than wearing a pack that you sweat through. I've got one of my prototype buttpacks on it already, waiting for another water bottle pouch I can re-purpose for it, already have one of my seconds sitting by ready to go on it. Waiting until I screw up another one bad enough I need to use it as a second. A DZ rig in Ranger Green, stripped of it's ammo pouches, would make a fine day hiking setup. |

I was in a surplus shop once a dozen years ago. They had a whole rack of obviously .mil uniforms and parkas in one of the mossy oak patterns from back then. You could tell they previously had name tags and tanks and what not stitched on. I always wondered what that was all about. But I was talking to a buddy about it all and called them BubbuDUs.

When I used to go to Bragg frequently, I did see some "Mossy-Oak" style civvie cammie in use. I think those guys with SgtMaj's who didn't GAF were testing out various camos. It wouldn't surprise me if some limited run stuff was made in ABU/BDU format. This would have been around the '07 timeframe. Especially with 3-D stuff; it really didn't seem that much of a difference from stock, GI stuff.
Only thing I might question is NIR treatment or lack thereof, if that's a concern. Some guys swear you can spray that down with hairspray; "White Rain" or some such shit. |

Quite a few hunting garments in hunting camouflages used early GWOT when tactical outdioor clothing did not exist.
  it is common belief that around 2005 Devgru made some internal camouflage trials for their reconnaissance troops that included civilian camouflage, including some mossy oak variants (i think obsession and some darker one) and realtree advantage timber. I was a fan of Natural Gear one, the one that the army issued in form of those hunting ghillie type pre made oversuits. There are some uniforms, cold weather gear, packs and chest rigs floating around that command very high collector's prices.    i have a smock with those pictures of flora type camo that i found somewhere for cheap that i sometime wear, as well as another summer type hunting set that is like perforated and buzz off treated that would be good for hunting in summer if summer was hunting season here . i also have a couple of the cheap 3d oversuits. I also have a mossy oak plate carrier i call my "neighborhood watch" rig  , not high quality but a nice low profile item that mixes well with clothing worn by country folks. Oh, and also my friend that as a gift from helping him had Frog Pro made 3 of his top of the line plate carrier, the Hagakure, in realtree with blaze orange lining and some leather embroidered by him under the laser cut part of the back panel and gave one to me and one to another friend that honestly i ahve used more than i should have possibly, both at the range and on training courses

Most Camo Patterns are FAR more about the HUMAN "Buyer" than to the hunted game.
Most "hunted" game pays far more attention to scent than do we humans, not to mention better hearing. "Hunted" game eyesight pays attention to "different" colors/light waves than what we humans perceive. Previously mentioned Brigade Quartermaster "ATASC" pattern was uncommonly effective in disrupting hunter's form. Kind of a broad-stripe horizontal/vertical camo. Unpopular since it did not seem, to HUMANS, as decent camo. Example: Camo What looks "good" to a hunter in a store might look laughably "different" to a "hunted" game animal, on account of their very DIFFERENT senses. Strongly suggest doing some "investigation" before obtaining "BubbaCam" fabric. You have only one chance on obtaining a good "first impression". @marnsdorff |

Asat camo was recently involved in a lawsuit against Supreme that marketed fashion items in that camo.
That camo Is exceptional if used on 3d suits, less in bdu format. I mean viewed thru human eyes, i don't know how Animals see, if they see colors or not, i Guess they still pick up shades of color that have high contrast with the background. |

Humans often confuse what we smell or see with the scent/sight/hearing organs amongst hunted animals. Most humans are so noisy, smelly, and moving around that most hunted game easily avoids us. Not a hunter, but this seems obvious. As mentioned before, most "Hunting" camo is primarily designed to attract Human buyers. |

So true. As in the fishing lure designed to catch the fisherman, not necessarily the fish.
Yeah as far as smell goes, this is a real eye-opener for most city-slickers. Your smell(s) don't belong in the bush. We get wrapped around camo patterns and largely ignore smells, and sounds. Talk to any good hunter to get squared away. The funny part with all these "mossy oak" style camos. You get these beautiful color palettes, but then you see the same pattern in blaze orange so you don't get lit up by mistake. And the deer don't give a shit which one you have on. |

Just to add, I want to congratulate Marnsdorff for being the new OEM for Crossfire USA. He will be doing some work on the Diz rigs initially and then build from there. Ideally he will be our Berry Compliant Go-To in the future for .mil contracts. And if we do some one-off shit in different camo patterns and so forth. He will continue to do his own custom work as well. We are hoping to throw more work his way to allow him to expand and be totally bad-ass. |

Previously mentioned Brigade Quartermaster "ATASC" pattern was uncommonly effective in disrupting hunter's form. Kind of a broad-stripe horizontal/vertical camo. Unpopular since it did not seem, to HUMANS, as decent camo. Example: Camo What looks "good" to a hunter in a store might look laughably "different" to a "hunted" game animal, on account of their very DIFFERENT senses. Strongly suggest doing some "investigation" before obtaining "BubbaCam" fabric. You have only one chance on obtaining a good "first impression". @marnsdorff Oh yea, definitely. The BubbaCam set would totally be for meme purposes. I'm not intending to make it a normal thing. Unless people wanted it of course. I just think it's funny. Plus some hunters might actually like it alot. It does kinda make sense for certain hunting situations. |

For sure I think the bubbaflage might grow legs here. Hell I'd get one. Along with Joe for his collection. Perche no?
In spite of all the bullshit, great times bros; we are jolly green giants striding through the valley. (insert FMJ meme here) I'm really stoked here, cuz I want to do some one-off projects that Marnsdorff can do limited runs of. And I want to drag Hawkeye into this deal as well. |

I have zero problem with doing special runs of stuff. I'd rather spend more time sewing stuff for others than marketing my stuff. The marketing is annoying. And BubbaCam / BubbaFlage is hilarious. I can see a run of decent BubbaCam smocks too, if I can get a decent fabric in it. |
