Greetings..I Retired from the CF in 2012 after 30 years..I really enjoy how you bushcrafters are repurposing the old green kit..I have used a tip or two in my own collection of gear..all the kit you have is all too familiar..lol..the mitts at 13:55 are trigger mitts..they were issued with the cold weather kit..they were worn when you were required to employ your personal weapon..hard to pull a tigger with the big arctic mittens..the trigger mitts had a wool liner but were cold..the US helmet cover was issued in the late 80s as a stop gap measure to resolve shortage of the canadian helmet cover just before the new helmets came into use in the 90s....the old gas mask carriers might make a nice haversack with some modification..working on that myself...great vids keep them comming..

The green gloves with the black rubber on them are called Mortar Gloves. They are used to drop mortars in the tube, The rubber coating gives extra grip on the bomb when you're dropping it, for safety reasons.

Those 80's green combat pants are worth dying for.

The windbreaker that you questioned early on in the video looks like a 4 Season jacket. Civilian Police and Fire Departments used them in the '90s. Very warm and make a good driving jacket.

The small rubber boots, where artic slippers for over your mukluk liners in the artic tent....aslo we wore the overboots (boots rubber clumsey) on the lortar line quite a bit....good piece of kit

Plus all the aircrew that are at RMC wear flight suits depending on the dress of the day so supply carries both one and two piece flight suits in both summer and winter weights.

When I was in a US Army ranger battalion, we used extra protective masks for our survival kits.

I love your comedy. Keep up the work.

In the 1980’s i bought a Canadian manufactured (Long Branch 1953) Enfield 303, brand new, and still in cosmoline, for $99.00. Great rifle and i only wish i’d had the foresight to buy a few of them. The Korean War armistice was signed in 1953 which the Canadians participated, and were replenishing equipment just in case, i guess.

Digital pattern camo for US uniforms were first used by Marines in 2002 (still use the same pattern. It ain't broke, so no need to fix it). The first US Army digitals came in sometime after 2003. Copy cats. I think the Army has been through three or four different patterns since. Air Force and Navy too.

With CFB Kingstons proximity to RMC, you may have some things that are making their way out of their stores.
