      Very good presentation, your background is like "gold" for this Cold War 11B4V.
      An unspoken reality for civilian minutemen (that I may have missed in the video) is this: civilian tactics, techniques, & procedures will differ greatly from military TTPs because there probably-wont be a push package, a supply-chain, SINCGARs, and a host of taxpayer funded equipment, ammo, & arms. There probably won't be a bunch of Tabbed, RIP, or ROP grads ready to take the point either. Tactics like a 4 man stack plowing through a door doesn't seem very cool any more when there aren't any replacements. No artillery support, no MEDEVAC, & no CAS. TRANSPO might be on a turnip truck.
      My load plan is 99% of yours; I'll make some changes & ruck more.
      This video goes a long way in supporting this reality
      Thanks.

    *sigh* I've been so hesitant to go over my sustainment load because I feel like it's either such a standardized thing it doesn't bear talking about, or it's geared toward situations so remotely likely that it doesn't matter much. But I think I might just have to do one specific toward a swampy/wet environment. Also, I carry a load of civilian clothes in my setup as well. So if I post a video, don't say I stole the idea lol.

    After watching his videos i see the importance of wearing blue jeans to blend into being a civillian if you need to drop gear. I have wrangler tan jeans that work really well instead of blue and will use a multicam, DCU, or desert marpat camo top to give me slightly more concealment than bright blue jeans out in the desert. Its easy to tell they are jeans if you are spotted and don't look tactical or like cargo pants

    I do like the idea of staying ready to switch into covert mode for the prepared minuteman. I think its better to integrate an appendix holster into my full kit than it is to carry a redundant sidearm and holster in my backpack, though. A 60 pound ruck is getting a little crazy, and eliminating that second pistol is an easy place to reduce weight.

  • @MrKakemann1
    @MrKakemann1 Před 4 měsíci +3

    I was in a different army, but we have a smaller backpack with core essentials (YMMV) that we strap onto the larger one.
    Mission essentials and whatever you need to survive for 24-48 hours.
    If you walk into a heavy contact, or need to E&E. Grab the smaller backpack and hual ass.
    Be mindful that it was issued gear.
    But if you carry a heavy ruck, make a plan for what you can and can not ditch. And an effective way to do it.

    Good video. Important point of emphasis is that this 65ish lb ruck is for the individual. Factor in a team, squad or higher, you bring in special equipment, crew serve weapon and mortar ammunition, larger more capable radios and when things get really fun anti-armor weapons. I'm sure drone operators have a chonky protective case. The final weight could be described as a "significant emotional event" for the uninitiated. Don't skip leg day.

    Speaking to the weight, my ruck in OSUT was not allowed to be under 65lbs- and we were not given any ammo. It’s extremely easy for a soldier to accrue weight when planning to operate for prolonged periods through variable climate/weather patterns. Sleep system, ECWCS, water, couple MREs, all this stuff adds ounces and ounces make pounds. Shave weight when and where you can but also come to terms with heavy weights.

    Way too much gear. It'll slow you down when trying to flee the area. And even if you dump your gear, now your enemies have more supplies and all of that effort in putting into setting up your gear was all for nothing. Take only what is really necessary. 1. 3 day rations
    2. Camelbak & 1qt cateen
    3. Rain Poncho
    4. Jungle & Mylar blanket
    5. Trauma kit w/ meds
    6. Gas mask w/ 2 filters
    7. Water filter & tables
    8. Climbing robe
    9. Military E-Tool
    10. Weapon cleaning kit
    11. (2) Flares
    12. (2) Glow Sticks
    13. Hygiene kit
    14. Utility/survival Kit
    As for weapons. Well, that's up to the minuteman. "The more you know, the less you need."

    Your wet weather gear is buried. When the ruck is nearly full stuff the jacket on one side and the pants on the other with a leg and arm available to pull out easily. You don't want everything getting wet just to access hard shells. Also, all warm weather gear at the bottom should be in a heavy duty garbage bag. If that gear gets wet you're at risk of hypothermia.

    Great video, gives me flashbacks. One question is why not wear your pistol on your body and just have the concealment holster in your ruck?

    • @BlueJeanOperator
      @BlueJeanOperator  Před 4 měsíci +11

      I could, but a pistol/gun belt kinda sucks when rucking. I’d honestly rather carry more rifle ammo in that spot. Shooters preference I guess.

      @@BlueJeanOperator That makes sense. As a former tanker I would have my pistol in either my tanker holster or TA-50/LBV (kind of dating myself), but your comment on rucking with a gun belt definitely makes sense.

    • @kerbalairforce8802
      @kerbalairforce8802 Před 4 měsíci +2

      Heavy on top is technically better on your back. Think like a squat bar across your shoulders vs how much you could strap to your hips.

    • @M.H.D.actual
      @M.H.D.actual Před 4 měsíci +1

      Heavier stuff towards the top and ALSO closer to your back, the worst place to place weight is all the way down and to the outside of your ruck. It basically is pulling you down and backwards constantly.

    The one thing you didn’t explain is what a sustainment load IS. It’s to keep you functional in the field for a few days. All these suggestions about what else you could carry miss this point. It’s not an existence load.
