- How I Pack My Kit | Deploying on my last ever exercise!
After many requests, I thought I'd do a video on how I pack my kit for exercise. Event though I'm not deploying in a 'tactical capacity' on this one, it is still largely the same.
Hopefully this helps answer some questions or gives an idea as to how to prepare, or some useful kit.

great video mate looking forward to your future adventures in the civvy life!
all the best
The spine pockets for the ally frame legs are a perfect stash for 20/21" bowsaw blades 👍
Great video, what was the windproof jacket in your webbing?
Fair play great video
Join the reserves even though you might not want to then you'll keep the rank and won't have to do basic training......otherwise in a year or two when you start thinking of joining the reserves because you miss it you'll be put off by having to do somw form of basic and starting out as a 1 pip wonder. Just something for the back burner.
Good Man 👍
Thank you boss ..
I never had tea or coffee, guess I'll have to start having them before I start basic training!
Caramel coffee sachets, throw a good handful of oats in and your brew becomes a meal 👍
Not a kit monster, more like a loot goblin😂😂😂
Hahaha fair one
Lip balm. Fucking hell.
Thsts a nice short back burgun
Anyone got a link for that pouch on his vest? Wanna get one of those bad boys
Hello, what uniforms are you issued when non officer, as in mtp’s,no2’s etc
No need to put every pair of socks in a separate waterproof bag. Also would be better in the main compartment. No need for spare trousers or shirt. Also boot polish in the field?? Med kit was questionable. Waterproof jacket plus warm layer should be in your daysack. Two Nirexes?
@@a.s.j.g6229 in 33 years of soldiering, l’ve never changed my trousers in the field, apart from in the jungle. You just don’t have time. My daysack was always carried packed as a grab bag under my top flap, with patrol kit and essentials in. You don’t have time to pack it if you come under contact! One nirex if definitely enough. Boot polishing in the field is for crows, it doesn’t happen after basic training.
What do you do about gas resup on a long exercise, would you carry 6 weeks worth of gas or leave it with the QM?
Where did you get the individual waterproof bags from? Great video keep up the graft mate 👍
A few surplus places have them but if you are handy an old ipk sheet is perfect material for liners 👍
They are called canoe bags. One set of 3 you should turn up to basic with. At least one large for burgun, one medium for day/patrol sack, and two small for burgan side pouchs.
But a few small extra ones are nice to separate your dry kit. For extra protection. Just remember to write on all the bags so you tell what's in what. Or better still get different coloured ones, so you can id them much easier in the dark
Callsign ESSEX?
Good drills.
Personally I have things like my flashlight, whistle, leatherman, etc on lanyards that are attached to my iLBV (Integrated Load Bearing Vest) so that I can't drop/lose them. The lanyard length just keeps the gubbins off the floor, which is also roughly long enough to have full reach without having to untie it.
Looking forward to seeing what you get up to.
Flashlight!? 😁 Torch.
I recognise I'm a little late with this reply, but the "Essex" is the name of his company (1 R ANG C-Company), and the companies are renamed to reflect their previous county regiments.
Hi my lad is starting his basic training next month
Do the army supply the waterproof bags or would I need to buy them
Thanks
DPM is way better quality than MTP. Also at 15:45 what is that under layer and pouch m8?
Thanks
what cold weather clothes do you carry?
Is that an issued Bergan or a Dragon Patrol Pack? It seems smaller than a full Bergan, or are you just an elite packer?!
Kit monster.... No
Beer monster....... Yes
Where did you get your body armour setup? Nice video some good tips here
Probably issued but sometimes they get issued one and buy these own
What gerber do you use ?
Loved the video and all the other ones, random question but are you aloud to take any of that kit home ones you have left the army ?
You have a de-kit process where you hand everything you’ve been issued back in
@@djrxp haloo english man u know 🇮🇳 army u r not brave like indian army man
@@vijaysinghsingh8561rude
@@vijaysinghsingh8561 The UK literally has one of the best militaries in the world. Speaking of brave army men (example being djrxp), i doubt you are one.
@@vijaysinghsingh8561The Indian army has never been brave. You only have to look at WW2 as an example. Highest desertion rates, and scorned by every Axis power for being shit soldiers.
What are your waterproof bags called and where would I get them from?
They’re called canoe bags and you can get them from Amazon. I would recommend shopping around through cause they can get pricey.
Will u still be keeping your channel going ?
I managed to get through Basic without many purchases....
What make is your day sack?
What Model of Keela Jacket?
Keela SF jacket, and then I also have a Keela Belay which is horrific for anything tactical but amazing for sitting in a harbour
What size Keela have you got been told to size down?
All the best!!!
Does army intake have a specific date for when training starts?
depends what year and depends what training camp you go to
@@wiberly661 infantry training for 2022 at Pirbright.
@@giordanburt1326 infantry is at catterick. unless you're going armoured then it's at pirbright also trade roles train there as well.
expect half a year
I applied on Christmas 2020 and I start catterick on Sunday
Hope it's all individually waterproofed ;)
Haha always!
@@djrxp may i ask where are you based?
Enjoy your retirement Sir! From QOGLR Queens own Gurkha logistic regiment!
Thanks mate 👌
will there be a video about the exerise?
The imaginary exercise?
Good video, dry bags, dry bags. Enjoy your last exercise and subsequent separation.
Thanks mate, appreciate it 👌
Why would You want to keep a waterproof jacket in a drybag?
No Basha?
Gus Van?
Walt.
I've got a question, I wanna join the army but the website is not accepting.? What do I do
Get a job at Tesco's.
Slippers? Sorry, really great video, really important about the old "foo foo" powder, but Slippers? Really?
😂😂 I’m not ashamed to admit it. Outstanding piece of kit!
@@djrxp 😁
I hope you don’t mind if I ask but what rank are/were you in the British army?
@John Stockton Isn't Captain OF-3?
@@va.avgeek9361 nope, that’s Major
@@charliekilo8944 positive because it goes Second Lieutenant to Lieutenant to Captain Then Major
@@va.avgeek9361 incorrect. 2Lt is OF1a and Lt is OF1b
Do you buy webbing or is it issued?
it's issued but a lot of infantry buy their own
Why is a Rupert talking about admin? Spud Armon would have a fit!
The thing is... all the reactionary types whinge about women and gender issues when the real issue is that young people have been enlisting and having report to some washout double glazing cold-caller who couldn't even spell Labrador nevermind train one. It's inclusivity gone mad!
I’m not sure if you’re referring to me as the double glazing cold caller… but I never sold double glazing
I know a pl commander talking about admin. Trust me they are in rag most of the time
Just curious: regiment? Service number? SLIPPERS? Video broadcast from a living room?
Bullets, water and good socks and broken in boots were recommended by my RSM, a vet of Korea. .
Hayfever tablets : )
A lovely kit for a week in Benidorm. More Johnnies and aspirin recommended though.
But really. Lip balm?
Really ????
open your eyes chum this is an officers accommodation block not a civilian house ( there are six clear clues to this )and lip balm ?? I take it you have never spent a great deal of time in the tropics or the Artic ??? both environments are quick to destroy the condition of your lips ( I`m A former medic ) with in days your lips will be so bad you will not be able to drink let a lone eat , troops are taught now to use lip balm every day as a preventative not afterwards as a cure
Taking a small stick of lip balm vs blistered lips & coldsores ...
If you don't get bad lips, don't take it? If you do, then it's not exactly much of a burden to carry it. Risk vs Reward???
But yeah, great to hear your absurd points of view.
Boxers?
One pair of Spare lycra shorts yeah 👌
I wish there was a army that follows the law properly focuses & works effectively internal matters on human rights inside the country this will put any nation to a greater position (faith is missing world had been destructed)
Hottest squddie ever
Screaming hat
Thank you
Fair one 😂
