- blanket patched with scenes from the Muppets
- your weapon and cleaning kit plus spare magazines
- clothes taken from dead soldiers (all armies)
- small shovel stolen from some farmer
- assortment of wire and hooks for making snares and fishing lures
- assortment of tin cans to heat water and cook food in
- a well worn picture of your loved one
A good point, I wonder just how long Uniforms, ALICE gear, rifles and pistols and tents and all the fancy electronic toys actually would last without repair or replacement. A good reason to minimize electronics if nothing else due to battery life and plain old wear and tear.
