The best place to learn is your videos.
I watch, rewatch and take notes on your videos because you are such a VALUABLE resource, Corporal. I really appreciate your experience, knowledge, time and efforts. Thank you.
I like seeing the still pics of the equipment you're talking about.
No bullshit review. It's refreshing. Reminds me of old school squad leader education time....
Thanks for your continued effort and concern for the health and welfare of others. It is gratefully appreciated Corporal!
The 10 C and redundancies I think work very well.
I used to take everything and kitchen sink and realize that all it did was slow me down. I’ve learned to use the 10 C in a very efficient manner. By watching your channel has help me tremendously.
I had not thought of having a road flare in my rucksack, but that is a nice idea.
not that heavy and guaranteed durable and powerful flame, even in the rain. smart.
earned a sub for breaking it down with no extra fluff. Felt like I was watching an old training video. All that was missing was the foot stomps.
wicked1z just subscribed as well. This guy is straight forward with no b/s 👍
Having discovered your videos here in New Zealand. I really appreciate the time and effort that you have spent in preparing these helpful and educational SURVIVAL videos. I learn heaps every time. Thank You.

Came upon your vids tonight and starting an EMC.. I love the y harness you've done..would you be able to do a quick tutorial on materials needed and how to join it together?
Lol EDC not EMC
Bless you and your family Sir....Thank you for sharing the knowledge you had to work so hard for, and all I have to do is pay my phone bill. My good brother was a door gunner....he showed me how to do drywall, and I love him for it. Keep it up with the great vids, Raven, out.
Corporals Corner Good video.
Love the preparedness you teach and survival info much appreciated. My son was a Marine a Lance corpral
One addition ? A large (40gallon) plastic garbage bag. Makes a great emergency poncho in the worst weather. Ugly but effective. Great stuff these videos.
The old reliable 55 Gal. drum liner would do, a poncho, a mattress, a sleeping bag if needed. A good addition to the kit.
A military poncho is a great option, as it can double as tarp for shelter and a poncho for rain. Also another layer of water protection if you wrap some of your kit with it.
Yup, I have done it myself and works well. Looked like a tramp but no one was around and it helped to keep me dry.
In response to your last question, Corporal,
I like to go with less than the 10 C's (occasionally, usually when I am solo unless the group has a previous understanding). - As an old acquaintance of Dave Canterbury's, pre-fame, we discussed this a few times.
The benefits of this practice are numerous, but what I personally like about it is that it has taught me a lot about organic solutions where presence of high speed gear might've given one tunnel vision and "painted one into a corner" so to speak. To have a measurable amount of security, objectives are prudent to address as far ahead of step off as possible.
I've been minimally equipped in most regions of the world, in most seasons. i don't relate to the "good enough/not good enough" paradigm because women and children and old people have been living in most places for eons. I find a lot more peace when swimming with sharks and alligators than I find drama.
Is it good to gear up a lot of times? Absolutely, and why not, I agree.
- I also cheat a bit, integrating carry gear and clothing together, often bringing ponchos and tarps instead of much clothing, placing rifles in cordura chaps until they are needed for their intended purposes, etc.
Respectfully submitted,
Semper Fi.

Good video Shawn I did not know that the road flares could be re-ignited.
I had no idea that flares could be re-used. Thanks for sharing that idea.
Is there a kit that will prepare you for 100% of the situations you may face? No. The information you shared here has broadened my understanding of what makes up a minimal kit and if it makes you think twice about what you want / need to carry, then you've done your job well. Thank you.
Man, I love going back and rewatching your videos. Always informative and corporal AF
Corporal, get your self a refillable lighter. You can turn it in any direction without the flame lapping back up on your fingers. Also, the refillable fuel hardly weighs anything. As a former marine myself (1970-1974) I do not recall much mention about our comfort, lol. I always told my children, when you have been a deployed Marine, you learn to sleep anywhere under any condition. It does not take much to be comfortable. I enjoyed the video and have subscribed. Semper Fi
Yeah I got a plasma lighter myself thats wind and water proof.i keep one in each gun bag 🎒
Love your content. Thank you for your service. Nothing but respect for you!
Thank you share the knowledge
Corporal Kelly, thanks so much for taking your time to educate people on this stuff. You’re an outstanding teacher. Priceless knowledge shared for free, from the kindness of your heart. You deserve way more subs! Hoping to make my way to the Pathfinder School someday for some real-world practice and education from the pros. Thanks again for all you do for us! Take care and be safe.
P.s. Your YT channel just keeps getting better and more badass with time! Keep on keepin on! \m/
You are the most honest and genuine guy on you tube. Love your vids keep it up.
Thank you for your service. A true Marine!
Your videos are amazing and very informative.
Thank you Coporal. You are an inspirational instructor for all students of self reliance and survival. I train this way for my loved ones as well.
M
I learn something new every time I watch your videos. Thank You so much for your hard work.
I’ve watch a number of your videos. I appreciate how detailed and to the point that you are in your videos. I can tell you clearly know what your talking about.
ANOTHER excellent video, Corporal Kelly. I am finding these to be very addictive, but I always learn something new, and I am pleasantly entertained as well, so it's all good. I grew up in New Hampshire, near the Connecticut River and loved hiking, camping and trout fishing. My brother and I shared a bedroom and we had collected discarded National Geographic magazines. They often had maps folded up inside and we papered the walls with them. I had found a hardcover book, on survival camping skills (A Boy's Golden Book of Surviving in the Woods, or something similar...) and spent hours reading and rereading it and dreaming about being another Davey Crockett, or Daniel Boone exploring the wild country in and around the Appalachian Mountains, or being a fur trapper in eastern Canada. I had the wanderlust in my DNA, apparently. I'd give almost anything to find that book again, so you can well understand how much I love these videos. Thank you so much...
Another great video good to that you tried to motivate people to take some essentials with them and have available to them as their life should be important and they are not going to be out for an evening walk in the neighborhood. In my car I carry a "survival kit" it weighs at least 35 lbs. I have food water shelter redundancies, 1st aid etc. For the 1st 4 days in the event I get stranded somewhere it will be as if I am just camping and if I don't when stranded want the stuff I can just leave it if I have to walk out but at least I had the option I think its better than the survival tin can that can cost $ 30.00. My life is worth more than a tin can.
Thank you for teaching people some of your experience. I very much appreciate it. Also thank you for your service.
Great video ! Finally a real man who knows what he's talking about. Thankyou for your service!
Great video! I watched every bit and even went back a watched two parts over. I am not military, but I really appreciate your minimum preparedness standard. I even took notes.
Every time you make and post a video, I learn something new. Had no idea flares could be relit after dry extinguishing. Excellent carry list, thank you for your continued contributions.
Outstanding damn video. Great way to add more tools to your toolbox. Knowledge is only great when it is shared with others. Trying to get that instilled into my young soldiers.
Outstanding, glad I ran into your channel. I can now re purpose my Alice gear. I am a follower the Pathfinder 10 Cs and appreciate your "kiss" type, no nonsense approach. I have gone back and am viewing some of your older videos. Thumbs up!
Soon my son and I will be outfitted in this manner for all excursions. Thank you.
I agree with your kit and your thought process. I enjoyed your video.
that was good to go the question you asked at the end really made me rethink a few things I took out I never thought to carry a flare. nice one Sir
Always remember my old man carrying these same supplies in the car when I was a kid he was WW2 vet, guess I picked something from him. Thanx for the reminders Cpl. K.!!
I started watching Corpral's corner last year. Really enjoy the presentations. Nice and simple for us lay people. Hope the videos stay availble. Thank you.
Never realized you could ( extinguish ) and relight a road flair! Cool 😎
man you are a pro, the way you present whatever it might be, top notch
Falukrop ezra agree!
Love the idea of the road flare for signaling and firestarting, multifunctional and not typical to most kits!!! Def will push that out to friends/family. Semper Fi brother!
Thank you for your well prepared videos. I enjoy watching. Thank you.
I'm looking forward to each new releases, from week to week.
And I appreciate the sacrifice of being spot on, your skills, knowledge, and commitment is impressive.
Well, in short, thank you, Sir.
thank you bud a great EDI, i am in the UK a veteran as yourself, i find your posts as good as they come keep it up mukka.
I've been going through your gear reviews, which are great, and I saw this one. I always love seeing what people carry in their kits and backpacking set ups. I've found some great stuff that can cut weight or sometimes just something I have never seen before. I think you do an excellent job of always stressing how important skills are. Gear means nothing without the skills to use it. I always preach to take a class or course on things and try to do as much research you can on products before putting money down. A compass or a first aid kit do not matter if you do not know how to navigate or know any first aid. Learning never stops. I really like how you explained your answer on this one.
Last year I found out about Leukotape. It works as a strong bandage and can be used to imobilize limbs. I wrap some around the bottle of iodine to save space, the stuff works amazing and stays on, which is great for blisters.
Great job and I think you're one of the best finds I have made on UA-cam. Thanks for all your hard work putting these videos together.
Very clear and to the point. Once a person has the basics covered then they can consider personal needs (Medications, comfort, clothing, etc.) and what types of gear and tools best fit their skill level and methods based on their knowledge, training and experiences. I've been thinking of creating a minimal (size and weight) shelter kit to add to an everyday carry kit just in case I end up unable to shelter in or against a building or as often happens, stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your videos have been helpful in that task.
Thank God for people like Corporal Kelly here on Corporals Corner.. He is very knowledgeable.. I try to watch a few videos of his everyday.. And rego through for either a reminder of things i may have missed on my kit.. Or remind me of several things to keep me safe and alive. The only items i see or havent seen Kelly discuse is a firearm.. Does he carry one or doesnt he carry one..not my business.. I respect that .. When i am out i have a 40 caliber handgun or at least a handgun on me for safety reasons only... With 3 loaded magazines.. One in the gun and 2 spares. Back to his videos.. I have learned many things from these videos or they have sparked other ideas for my kit.. When i watch his teachings here i am like a huge sponge.. Soaking everything i can. I may write certain things down so i remember or to go back to a certain video that talks about this or that.. I like the fact he is here to teach you.. Tells you what has worked for him or not.. ( notice he never says.. Its junk .. You dont want this item.. Cause it may work for you or you may like it ) He talks to you in a respectful manner .. Not down to you..i have sent a few of my friends to his videos and they all say the same.. That all being said.. My only issue with him is when he cooks.. Certain items like steak .. Or onion bombs with my favorite food group ...BACON!!!. After i eat like a grilled cheese...or something my kids want.. LOL.. Soo not cool.. ( only kidden ). Peace.. Looking foreward to many more vids.
really well done video sir..thanks for posting..safe journeys
Corporal makes an excellent point consistency of equipment and defining the mission... excellent advice
Great video, it's very important to carry core part of kit, and also build additional items to suit mission as in where you are going I agree 100 %
My training requires me to have all the necessary gear when I walk my dog .because I’m disabled, and you never know what’s gonna jump out at you in the jungle, so it pays to be prepared I.even carry a firearm Pepper spray, cordage knives. Water medical kit You don’t know .I always be prepared and I appreciate it and thank you for your service..
Hey good idea, and very functional, liked the large tins with labeled what it is and portions, good idea . Thank you
I always like to smooth it much as I can cause I'm lazy. I tend to carry to much in my pack rather than not enough.
Good video
Exactly, and thanks for watching
Great video made by an experienced person. Thanks.
Another great video, it’s weird, I thought I knew a lot of things but every time I revisit your videos I come away with a new perspective... Thanks Again Corporal!
Couple things: That buttpack is the best buttpack ever made, but I think they discontinued it, I had a hell of a time finding one.
Second, a trick I learned is to weave bank line through the grommets of the GI belt, and weave through the top and bottom opposite each other, so that there is always a loop on the inside of the belt. Then you can attach MOLLE pouches and the bank line acts as a series of belt keepers.
I like that you point out that there is a minimum a person should carry. I'm all for cutting weight, but I like Dave Canterbury (and nearly every other experienced woodsman that taught me) to cut weight by using thing that have more than one purpose unless you need specialty gear. An additional firestarter people don't often think of is in their first aid kit, they usually have some gauze and some antibiotic ointment in petroleum jelly. Put a glob of petroleum jelly in a piece of gauze and it lights easy and the petroleum jelly will burn for a while just like the "petroleum jelly and cotton balls" firestarter, but instead of carrying a bunch of those, you have first aid gear until you are out of fire options.
Instead of petroleum jelly, I found jute strips dipped in wax are Excellant fire starters
that's excellent corporal - i thumbed it up! i'm gonna get some flares!!!!!! been using my y-harness set-up like yours from your earlier video for about a year - love it! makes things so much easier for me! you're the best - thx!
Great channel. I love the positive nature you share with your viewers. Keep at it.
Like the flare idea and demo! I'm old school military I've subbed B-day candles that don't go out, can cut 1/2 also some plain as for add light and small can Zippo lighter fluid also some aluminum foil has many uses but best that nobody does is as fire reflector! Use much less wood and is reusable! Love the vids a new sub
I've recently come across your channel and love your content. Thanks for the great videos, insightful information, and please keep up the great work.
Excellent commentary! Love your vids man!
MOST excellent! Thanks for posting!
Thank you
Always outstanding AF content. Thank you!
Nice vid. Love getting ideas from other people to improve my kit. Thank you.
So glad I subbed you are such a wealth of knowledge, I can tell you were military and as a Canadian I appreciate the knowledge
Keep doing what you are doing. Your videos are very informative and fun. Semper Fidelis. From a Army Veteran
Well done, first time ive heard of the 10 c's, and i would consider myself a preparedness enthusiast so thanks for sharing, this gives me a good reference point
When I was in the army we didn't switch out gear for different terrain features, we just improvised some things but we carried the same shit, cav scout 99-2003.
Great video...freedom for all people
outstanding Sir.
I lost my home in a flood last year.
I had three to go bags, a special Opps west Virginia state trooper said I was a survivalist ??
my three to go bags were under water before I could get them (bummer) always keep one in the Attic !!! I didn't, wish I had !!!
glad I found you're channel Sir.
THANKS FOR YOU'RE SERVICE !!!
this country is falling apart and crumbling from within,
ALL THE BEST TO YOU AND YOU'RE FAMILY SIR.
I have the 10Cs as my standard core. In the cutting I have added a folding saw ether backo or silky. Found it make things a lot easier. The flare is a great idea I have had on in truck bag /my get home bag ever sense I put it together back in the 90s didn’t really think about in in my 10 Cs kit.3 things I always put in my kit is a multitool small grill think it a 5x5 and a pack of Advil. Great video.
Great! Really minimal and well explained. Thank you.
Another great video thank you for posting.
Amazing. Great detail in every video.
Semper Fi! I use the old school harness and belt with my old cotton canvas butt pack as well as utilizing some newer gear options like yours. Nice job on the rig. Ive added a holster and two rifle/pistol mag pouches.
I love that quote! Since moving away from home(Nc) to Colorado. Everything to do with home has become special lmao. #Appalachia
Excellent - I always roll with the 10C's Thanks for sharing !
Outstanding! Incredibly great contents
Good day sir
As a corporal, instructor and veteran in SA i enjoy your videos.
I use the old SADF skelton webbing (old pattern 58) and make up my kit in 3 levels over and above my edc
My edc contains a pocket knife, small ferro rod, 9mm plus 5 mags and a multi tool as well as a tac pen clipped into my shirt pocket
Level 1 is very similar to your kit but incorporates basic med kit, 10 days food and beverages and some trapping wires and snares etc
Level 2 is an additional bag with a rifle, ammo and cleaning kit.
Level 3 is a 45 litre rucksack with a 3L bladder, full med kit, spare set clothing, and extra 80 days food. This food is something i developed myself and comes in at about 8 kg.
The EDC is always on me and lvl 1 is always close at hand.
If you put an email i can contact you i can put through these kit lists i use and my food i developed.
It would be good to share ideas.
I am in my 60’s now and struggle with injuries from a mv accident but still try to educate the younger generations.
I look forward to hearing from you if you can find the time.
Thanks for an excellent channel.
Best regards
Awesome buddy learning new stuff off every vid thank you :)
Thanks, especially for reviewing the 10 C's
Anytime
ok good video and good ideas. i like the videos on what to pack. my location may not need the same things but i can adjust.
Thank you for another great informative video.
A road flare! Something I have never heard of using as a fire starter. Sounds like a good idea. I will comply.
Now that is a very good and informative video, cheers!
Core essentials remain the same for sure. Salute!
well done, one of the best Ive seen here.
I didn't know you could re-light flares. That's awesome!
Another great instructional video. They always make me think "What can I do to make my skills and equipment better?" Thank you
everyone can do better
Wow! I had no idea that flares could be smothered and restarted. Thanks!
I liked the road flare thanks corporal
Fantastic video. Going to work on my survival pack tonight!
Good video. I never thought about using the flare as a reusable resource; great idea. P3 can opener on your utensil ring was good though not specifically mentioned. I have to gear-up again though I hate to live like I'm in a hot zone.
As usual, accurate, outstanding advice
Carry on
Thanks for the good sense advice!
I like the old school kits as a USMC RiO flying around in f-4 my favorite gear was the basic survival gear that was issued to me in my flight vest
You sound just like one of my DIs! Great Vid! Love the question at the end! I wonder how many of those 2 lbs kit guys get picked up by Serch and Rescue? KEEP ON KEEPING ON!
I too was a CPL Kelley !!! Rock on brother
Great video. I thank you for sharing your knowledge. I find that a lot of people lack training and are under the impression that they are just going to strap a bag on there back and run to the bush if something bad ever happens. I am glad that a trained professional ex military person like your self is willing to educate people. Thank you.
Thanks for the support
ATTENTION ON DECK !! Good work with the info and demonstrations , even better work being matter of fact and humble . Good work brother .
I know your Chanel has moved on from these type videos, however I would like to see an updated version showing the evolution of your current kit.
Thank you Corporal Kelly you just answered the question that I have for so long and that is "what is the minimum, the base line of equipment or tools that I should bring me everytime i'm out hiking, trekking or just camping". Thank you very much.
