So, for September 11th, our wing is doing a 10 mile memorial ruck march. I'm debating how I'm gonna set up my rig for that. I've got a backpack that I usually load up with water (about 30 pounds total), but it doesn't really sit on me very comfortably (the joys of cheap backpacks I suppose). Wondering if I'd get some better weight distribution if I figure out how to attach the backpack to my Interceptor vest.

I'm not too concerned about the weight, though this march will be longer by about 4 miles than any I've done in about 10 years. :eek:

see if you can find an old alice frame (like they used for the radio's in Vietnam) and fit your pack to it, put a pad belt into it and then set it to your body shape - works for me and I usually carry up to about 80kg - I think it's roughly about 100lb's

Dunno if I'll be able to find one of those out here. Dunno where I'd even find a surplus shop in this country.
 
What wing are you Texguy? I based with the 341st MW. Sounds like your a SF, maybe a CCT or PJ.

Eh, discouraged from giving details online. Loose lips and what not. It's not secret squirrel stuff or anything, I'm just a support troop who fights from a desk in an office. :D
 
I hear you texguy I have no problem saying my wing seeing that its been on the Today show but other then that. Its all FOUO/UCNI
 
Here is a photo of me at work last summer.

Yes you do :D I adore a man in uniform (so long as it's not a prison uniform) but even more so out of uniform :devil:

I don't mind being out of uniform, it's a bit more comfortable. And the journey to being in uniform to getting out of uniform can be fun with the right company ;)
