You ought to try lugging the rounds! We used to have half the platoon at the 82nd carrying four 60mm mortar rounds in his ruck (we used large ALICE packs at the time) -- but on my 2nd jump at the Division, they plebed me and gave me ten to carry. Luckily, the field problem only took two hours, but we were on the bounce almost the whole time.
