    Every pack of mine (Assault/Bug-Out/Princess Picnic...) has one essential item I did not notice in this video; ZIPLOC Baggies. I usually keep a few 1-gallon and 1-quart bags in my pack. I also use them to store my extra socks/undies or loose gear in. Keeps things dry, tidy and separated. Also, great to put your dirty socks/clothes in to prevent stinking up everything else in the pack. Just my $.02 after 26 years of living out of a ruck.

    I have a ton of ziplock bags I put things in, especially my main medical supplies. Bandages are sorted by size and type. Then each category is in a larger bag. That way compresses are in one, tape is in another, and all sizes and shapes of band aids in yet another. That way replenishing the IFAK is just a matter of finding the right bags. No hunting through a chaotic mess. It also works great for food too. Condiments and whatever else you need to make your roadkill stew go down and stay down should be together and not spread out all over the bottom of your bag. My list is huge.

    Great video, very enlightening. In my time in the Army I was in the Cav and always had an armored vehicle at my disposal so it's almost embarrassing to say but I never had any reason to pack an assault pack. When you don't have to physically carry it you tend to over pack :-). I always had a large ALICE pack, my NBC gear, and a duffel bag for the miscellaneous and pogey bait (gedunk in the Navy and Marines?) so what I might need to pack to hump on my back for a 24-hour mission really never came up. I had totally forgotten about chem sticks. When you mentioned flares my first thought was "that ain't gonna work in Colorado, you'd burn the place down" but the light bulb went off when you got to the chem lights. That'll work in a pinch.

    Of recent generations, I'm the first firstborn not to serve directly, though I'm still listed as volunteer reserve medic. It turns out that my regular duties as a rural veterinarian aren't that far removed from what I'd be expected to perform as a medic. I've already treated enough gunshot wounds at the clinic as it is. My three month training felt like more of a formality, although I have walked away with improved first responder certification and full triage qualification. That's nice. I just wanted to say that you're right about different mission profiles, even between civilian roles. A rural veterinarian has a much different daypack than a volunteer firefighter. And a lot of your explanations are universally relevant. There's something for everybody in your videos, whether we're military, civilian or Venusian. I've been impressed enough by some of your product recommendations that I've switched my vehicle kit to something more compact and I'm now waiting on a Hayley Strategic Flatpack as my new daypack.

    I have a chest rig and it feeds my carbine. I live in a small city, more like a town in a rural area. I run deuce gear and ALICE pack. The medium ALICE pack off the frame can be turned into an assault pack by tying the internal strings and folding and tying the bottom to the rear of the pack. It can also be run as is with standard frame and a sustainment pouch can be added on either side to plus up the volume. The large ALICE won't accept the sustainment pouches. I can run water, ammo, food, shelter, etc on the LC2 rig and leave the pack free for other needs or things. After market frames will allow you to add a MOLLE 2 hip pad. I realize I'm old school, but it works well. Cold War Sgt USAF. Love your vids. I've been sharing them with family and friends.

    When I was in the Corps, we used to clip a carabinier to our flacks/plate carriers and clip our helmets to those. Also, our MTV flacks came with a butt stock stop. We could velcro it underneath a shoulder strap to give our rifles some purchase. Something similar to that may be a viable solution for having a rifle slip off of your day pack straps.

The other thing is, you are reviewing the Legion Elite pack, but your link is to the Legion pack, which is smaller. There is also a Phalanx pack which is a little bigger. Note for guys with big heads like mine: if you wear an XL MICH helmet, you probably want the bigger Phalanx....

So now I'm stuck behind a desk for the majority of my time, along with working on and launching jets (which is way outside of my rate and no one else in my rate does) but I do it because I want to do something "cool" but there is always that thought in the back of my head of "if only I wasn't colorblind."

    My Banshee plate carrier does well paired with the old Ares armor pack. Slim and able to connect to my Banshee with adapters or wear as a pack. It has a space for hydration bladders, up to six mags on the top with retention cords. 3 compartments total with MOLLE webbing. Cleaning gear, chow n eating gear, ammo, water, trauma and first aid, hygiene gear and lightning batteries. Cord and stay warm gear as the season dictates. Thanks for the advice , always room for improvement.

I know, its not made by "real steal guys", but by guys, who abuse it very heavily and it stood up to the test of Time. Have a look into it. It´s worth it I promise. Greetings from Germany.
