    You missed an opportunity to call this 'Modern Gondor ranger loadout' lmao. I have an original RLCS RRV, just took it out for milsim and kinda surprised that it can take load of pouch as much as FLC.

    Absolutely LOVED my M81 BDUs. Definitely wore the sumemr weight more but these made way more sense. Buttons versus velcro on pockets and fly. I get the reason for velcro on patches but man these bring back great memories.

    I got a good laugh. Makes a promotion to sell MRE's. In the video "not as good as I thought it would be" All the vets watching are probably thinking "what a blast from the past" ill take a case.

    Next to M-81 Woodland and MARPAT, the 3 color desert BDU's are the best. It would definitely work here in Nebraska in the fall/winter.

    I bought one at a thrift store a few months ago for $5, dated 1987, small reg. I was surprised to see on the tag that it is 100% cotton. I also have a later version dated 1999, 50/50 nyco, small reg (note sure of the type number). My 1987 Type III is roomier and lighter in weight than the 1999.

    Cheap, light, and effective. Works great to throw in a gym bag. Replaced an old Gatorade bottle I was reusing 😂. Another tip: you can tie some shock cord or para cord around the rim to make a carrying lanyard that fits securely under the lip.

    Hey Lucas! Additionally you can just put the poncho on and hunker down. Been there done that! Rain suits they issue now are pretty good but not as easy or fast to put on as a poncho. So now you carry 3 pieces of gear (jacket, pants and tarp) instead of one (poncho). Sounds like another great decision by the fed-gov/pentagon.
