Back in 1989 or '90...we we're going into the field (Camp Pendleton) for 4 or 5 days and knew it'd rain. So we bought a bunch of cans of Scotchguard..and sprayed our shelter halves, 2 or 3 coats....worked like a charm! Water beaded up 'n rolled off. USMC, 1/4, wpns co., 81s plt, 1988-92
Sounds like an outstanding way to improvise, adjust, and adapt. Semper Fi
But, one thing though? Will the stores be open SHTF? (That’s like where do you get AMMO SHTF?) chew and mull chew and Mull! That’s why a Ka-Bar is so handy! Don’t have to reload a Ka-Bar! It keeps going and going!
Making a HUMMER sleep like the Ritz Carlton Since 87! (Will somebody turn up the Air Conditioner a little bit, pleas? It’s beginning to smell a little like BOOT up in heeyuh! [just HAD to put that one in 😆])
I hope you get this notification so you can be reminded of it
@@thedanielfamily1595ka-bars great but for hunting an fighting got to go with RMC dagger everything else tho Ka-bars got it beat which is why you should carry both 😂😂😂😂😂
If it's looks stupid but works, it ain't stupid
When I left the military, I left with all my ALICE equipment (ruck, LBE, canteens, ammo pouches, field dressing, butt pack, and even a gas mask) plus a bunch of small items like the entrenching tool, k-pot, etc. A couple years later I got a tax refund and on the check was a deduction for $150.00. I got charged for all the gear I never returned. The best $150 I ever spent, lol.
It's funny that the government kept track of that. "Should we call him to get that stuff back? Nah, just put it on his taxes"
LOL, as I read your entry I was gonna say they’d get round to it. I was a Marine rigger. I controlled a lot of expensive and highly desirable gear like the brown leather jackets with fur collars. We kept a close eye on those I didn’t want to end up paying for any unaccounted. One alone could cost upwards of $300. Semper Fi Sarge Out….
This video feels like hanging out with that cool uncle i never had
Born to have a family of four, forced to be the lonely uncle with cool stuff
As it pertains to dating MRE’s. I prefer not to get too attached to my food, so dating is absolutely out of the question for me. I think we’ll just remain friends.
Absolutely hilarious!
Out-Standing! Ya killed me with that one!
First time I set one of those up, It was at the end of a long march we had in the army. It was getting close to evening, so we didn’t have much time to set up. We didn’t have any ground pad to sleep on, man was it cold. Outstanding, M
arine!
Less than a minute. Tons of likes: OUTSTANDING
AF
It's also the food. 😋
Very good video. I was a medic at Ft Stewart and I would go to the field constantly with Charlie company. I was lucky. I drove the M113 ambulance and slept inside on a litter. No shelter half for me. The grunts used to say I slept in a hotel. Great bunch of guys, they took care of their medic.
Plus, I was in at the tail-end of C rations which came in a little brown box. The food was in cans. So, in the winter, I would heat up my franks and beans on the M113 exhaust pipe. Nicely heated through but the can was as black as coal from the diesel smoke! Hardcore. Those were the best of times. I have a million stories.
I want to thank you for your service and sacrifice. I dont know how I stumbled upon you, but I am thankful. I have truly learned how to build a above the ground camp bed and covered for the fire. I will most certainly need these skills. Thank you.😊
I don't understand how people dislike your videos. You have alot of great experience and info on how to possibly survive in the woods. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and your service to our country! I really appreciate everything you've done. Thank you sir!
Top tuber trolls that can’t do any of this
D-Day! The perfect day for an old school military gear episode!
Loved it!!!
12:55 "They [MREs] are only meant to last three years."
Steve1989MREInfo: 👁👄👁
Haha, I thought the same thing.
Had the exact same thought.
As soon as he reiterated 3 years I said to myself, "I think Steve would beg to differ". I find it interesting that he doesn't make the distinction even though his ration is out of date by time of upload XD
Well I wasn't a marine, but I was Army infantry, and Iso am jealous that you have all my old gear. Nice video keep it up.
thank heavens EVEN THE MILITARY has UPGRADED its gear. not just its fire power !!!!
When I was in the army, I spent some nights in that type of tent.
@@redsorgum yeah buddy !!! those was strange times :)
Anybody who unsubscribes from this outstanding channel is not the kind of person you can count on.
finally someone making a rain moat and showing how important it is. thanks for that
those are a rare sight
My dad was in the Marines in the late 1950s. We grew up using his pup tent and other gear. I don’t remember it consisting of 2 shelter halves. It def had The snoopy doghouse shape, though. Corporal, we totally respect all you do and we try to make it clear to CZcams that WE WANT CORPORAL’S CORNER!!!
As soon as I started the video I could smell that gear…..I always had a full size bottle Tabasco, salt and pepper mixed together inside of a pen tube, a bag of bacon bits and I was always good for a couple of slim Jim’s.
A "military nostalgia" overnighter, outstanding AF!
"Pre-nostalgia" would have involved C-rats...not as big a "menu," but there was always a handful of P-38s, the accessory packs came with a 4-pack of cigarettes and the peanut butter tins were often converted to ashtrays. The damp-proof matches were pretty good, and little stoves were made out of the big cans. The tiny Tabasco bottles were treasure, but near civilization things like herbs and spices could make C-rats pretty tasty. BYOB (bring your own bacon), though...it went well wrapped around the beef patties.
Thank you, Corporal, for becoming part of my Sunday routine, and, as always, "rock it like a Corporal!"
Edit: what flavor of bug juice did you get?
Love that comment- “you’re in it and you hate it, then you get out and you’re drawn back to it.” Simple civilian here, but that resonates with my experiences.
I didnt think of myself as old, then remembered plenty of nights in this setuup🤣🤣
Your vids have helped me get and enjoy the woods. I have lost weight made the wife and doctor happy. Keep leading from the front
OUTSTANDING!!
I loved the compass review. I am looking forward to more hip pocket classes. Also showing how that ditch around the tent really did work was cool. I always thought sergeants asked us to do that just to torture us. It is nice to know it was for a reason. Lol and Thank you.
Let’s get this guy to a millions subs
Hot 700K one week later‼️‼️
OUTSTANDING AF ‼️
You beat the rest of the "Want
+A+Be's"
My uncle served in Vietnam two tours go blowed up by a grenade and stabbed 13 times when the Vietcong over ran there position. He survived by the grace of god. And taught me to always set ur tent and trench it around it so rain water runs off. And your not sleeping in the mud. Appreciate you cpl Kelly for teaching the ones that did not know how to shed water off.
Shades of Camp Pendleton 1968, only then it was C-Rats. Good one Kelley!
I agree, that canvas smell rules. Old Spice needs to make that a scent.
Or Dr squash
We used to break open the heater and put the contents into a water bottle and boom! lol. Chili Mac was my favorite. In the dark brown years it came with pound cake, cheese and crackers and a candy bar.
An Alice pack, got mine, got my 782 gear all together, we kept bottles of red hot on our tank, M48A3, we had C-rations made from back in the 40s
I still have a pair of shelter halves my uncle carried in the army in the fifties. And you're right, you never forget that smell.
Brings back good memories of my days in the army, thanks
About the trench,I was taught to use the lose dirt to create a berm on the inside perimeter by packing it down. Also,find the lowest level of the area and extend the trench away from the tent by at least 5-6 feet so water drains away and doesn’t pool up. Maybe I’m wrong,but have always done it that way.
As long as the canvas over shoots the edge of the trench for the most part it's fine, he even said this, and yes you're supposed to extend the trench at the lowest point for drainage.
Wow, mind blown, both my parents were in for 20+ and I have mountains of this stuff laying around. I'd always ask my dad to show me how to use it and he never has. But now thanks to a random CZcams recommendation, I know how it works. Liked and Subscribed.
Yeah, my dad always assumed I knew what he knew.
Great old school gear video.
I can smell it!!!
It was pretty cool seeing him bust out that MRE....
We would use our poncho to cover the outside of the tent to help with water proofing when sleeping at night. Drastically helps with keeping dry.
Suunto is a Finnish brand. Suunto refers to the direction in Finnish. When I was nine years old, we were taught orienteering at school. We're looking for ticks in the countryside forest with maps and compasses. The teachers waited at the end of the day at the finish line.
Awesome! I always said "boot was the most fun I ever hated!"
You tube can take their notification system and shove it!
Great vid, love the old school stuff!
Well holy SHI$!!!!! That's how you use one of those compasses! Thank you so much because I wanted to know how to use one for decades. I'll be honest I was just too damn lazy. But you made it so easy. Thank you kindly got to go back to the video.
I was in the US Army Infantry from 74 to 78. Mechanized and air mobile. We used the pup tents in basic training and AIT. After that I never saw them again. We just slept where ever and when ever we could. Never carried tents. Never had camp fires either. And we usually ate our C Rations cold. Oh, the simple life.
I remember the dark brown MRE packaging during the late 80's and early 90's, and the C Rations up to 1982/83.
My older brother used to bring some home. My fav was the dehydrated hamburger patties.
Remember the dehydrated fruit cocktail! I never added the water!
I kind of liked that old cotton tent smell.
As I remember, when first opened up, it smelled like vomit hehe🇺🇸🇺🇸
Back in the late 1970s I was working for the Army as a civilian at the Natick Labs where they were developing the process to make MRES and developing the process to use Radiation to preserve meats and such to be packaged into the meals. We would ship a machine to a meat company as part of the design process every few months so they could process some for sampling by GIs. The Lab also had test chambers that would simulate both Arctic and Dessert conditions for testing uniforms and accommodations for survival. We were also developing equipment to be used for combat by retrofitting existing equipment with newer weapons.Just to give you an idea how “C” rations got replaced. Thanks for another great video. If my memory serves me the soldiers used their ponchos to make each half and slept opposite head to toe to use the space correctly. Even family tent camping we always dug rain trenches around our JC Higgins canvas tents.
gamma ray are used for sterilize bags for aseptic filling bags for drums, for food product like fruit puree
I love that spoon in your pocket! Brings back memories. You never know how long it will be until you might get a spoon or a P38. C-rations had a wonderful pound-cake. You could use dry dairy creamer (vanilla) or hot-chocolate powder (chocolate) for icing. I would trade fruit-cocktail (too sweet, messy syrup) for pound-cake. Great desert with the Oreo - keep it up.
I served in the US Marine Corps from 77 to 85 I'm familiar with the ALICE pack and old school gear. I'm glad to see that you still use it. Outstanding work.
Sunday is complete. Coffee, Corp and camping!
I create my own smell breaking wind inside and always got the tent to myself while my tent buddy went off to sleep in a truck. Hehe. Back in the bivouac days 1980's.
Marine Veteran Tip: Extend a small channel inside the tent connected to your runoff trench. That way you can just roll over and pee without having to leave the comfort of your shelter.
Sure brought back a lot of memory's OOH-RAH
Ah, Old school, brings back memories. Love the video and the Smoreos. Stay safe.
I was in the Air Cav 84-90 and this gear brings back the memories. Absolutely hatred the tent so most of us had private purchased dome tents. I carried a WW2 era entrenching tool as the handle was so much more comfortable. I've eaten MREs from 2016 with no problem. I still have LRRP rations from the 80s because that's what we ate as well as the old MCI meals and yes we carried tobasco sauce. I carried a sprinkle holder that had multiple compartments so it had salt,pepper, season-all, onion powder, and garlic powder.
We have same type of shovel in Finnish military. Never thought that it could be used as a stool!
15:11
it's times like this that make the channel shine .
A walk down memory lane, awesome video Corporal!
when I was in the army we were told not to use the e-tool as a hammer because metal on metal 3 times is signal for gas/biologial attack.
We didn't "shoot from the hip"; leaders had small training manuals that fit in our hip pocket. I have the same gear because I bought my own and used it in the field. I drew equipment each time I transferred to a different base, then turned it back in unused. Easiest way to clear when doing a Permanent Change of Station (P.C.S.) and worth the money.
Fantastic video Shawn.. I like these "old school videos".. since it's still fairly affordable most of my gear is old school..😄
Got the notification like clockwork, yt unsubbed me one time, simply resubbed and moved on. Great video as usual and looking forward to next Sunday!
I quit facebook because they throttled my content. It's not because your'e not doing enough, it's because your'e doing too much. You educate people and teach self reliance...'they' don't want that. I dig your channel and always will and so does anyone that has seen it. Down side?... probably won't change. Channels like yours will always have to face into the wind. Kudos to you for hammering away at it.
New sub here -- Been watching for awhile, but the compass classes and the MREinfo page were the game changers to earn my click.
Thank you for providing useful and practical info, and not smothering it with fluff and mindless filler.
This reminds me of the military surplus wall tents we had in boy scouts in the early 1960s. The kids had to pick up these heavy canvas tents and those huge wooden poles. These things were nightmares for 12 year olds. The scout leaders were all wwii veterans and these tents and uniforms triggered something in them, and they expected a lot from us. It was both a privilege and a pain to have them around.
lol still have one of those around. made new pole though.
Man I've always wanted one of those tents
Glad I got notifications for all your videos. Brings back a lot of memories. Thankful for my Mom and the military for teaching me how to survive. Corpel you know how to make me laugh and teach people much needed knowledge. God Bless ✌❤😁
Love the military humor brother. Army Vet here. Much respect. Great videos
Two Marines in a hot canvas tent in a tropical rain. Outstanding.
Do you know how long I felt like a broke ass snoopy house in the woods? I served 23 years, Gortex Bivy tents and bivy bags came out about 2 years before I retired....And since my combat 782 gear was written off as combat losses, I still have about 4 complete sets.....I still use my broke ass snoopy tent in the woods because it is tried and true combat tested....You can't beat a heat tabbed canteen cup of lifer's juice!!!!
My dad was Army National Guard. ( Drove tanks and blew stuff up so cool even by Marine standards) he had that shovel always found it useful. Canvas tents!! Spent many nights in them as a girl scout
Once you lie down…Saddle up we are changing location…
Corporal, I'm 72 and love to watch your videos with my 3 daughters and my grandson that's 31 years old. My granddaughter watches you down in Florida with husband and children. We want to thank you for all your knowledge, and keeping us entertained.
Great Video. I never had or even thought of bacon with Mac and cheese. However, it was MREs back in Basic Training that got me to fall in love with Mac and Cheese. Seriously, before I joined the Army I thought it was okay, but afterwards it became a godsend. It's amazing how the military can brainwash you:)
Your compass explanation was better than any of my scout masters, I am sure I could actually use one properly now. Thank you Corporal!
I was in the Marines from 1968 to 1972 and have slept in the canvas pup tent numerous times. And we were taught to lay out ponchos on the ground inside of the tent, and to dig a trench around the tent! Semper Fi
There is one guy on the internet who doesnt care about the MRE date. All he cares about is getting it out onto a tray, nice.
I read this and all I could hear was Steves smooth voice saying. Nice… :)
I like this. "Old School" gear, not exactly light weight, but extremely functional. Keep them coming Corporal!
Start out with Alice suspenders and the pistol belt. There's a whole lot of stuff that you can hang on various parts of the belt and suspenders, both vintage and repro packs, and various pouches, sheaths and holsters. Not as quick and light as Moly gear, but it works for the purpose.
Thanks for bringing back the old gear. I can smell the memories....👍👊
I used the shelter half with another buddy once while in basic. I've used it as a lean to or draped over the gun tube of an M60 or Abrams more than a dozen times. I always preferred to sleep in the M88 with the riggers and TC seat removed. Like the taj mahal on tracks. LOL!
Blow everyone's mind and let them know there are 3 Norths.
Who knew!!! Inam learning so much watching your videos! Thank you.
Brings back so many good and bad memories. Out standing AF!
You need to teach them how to make coffee with a clean sock. Folks these days will never know the pleasure of C-ration pound cake with white (coffee creamer) or chocolate (hot chocolate) icing. (Or that C-rations used to come with cigarettes.)
Or how to use the fat with toilet paper to heat them.
I KNOW the smell he’s talking about! Damp rubber or damp plastic! Gotta love it!
"Stick with me". But do I have to drink that coffee?! :-)
No school like old school .... Love it
Great video, loved the compass info and the build. I never miss your weekly videos and I’m enjoying going back and watching your older videos. You da man
This man is a true survivor and a former USMNC this man has my support in doing video,s we all could learn a lot from people like him to all my fellow you tubers show your love and support for him and what he’s doing from us he got my support in this and me you all that he’s awesome former USMC and try to keep mind and remember what he’s done for are country key word people he’s a former USMC😎👍🤘😁🤟🤘
Once a Marine, always a Marine.
Once you smell it, you never forget it. All vets know exactly what you are talking about.
and another awesome video!
That gear brings back memories. Enlisted in ‘98.
How could somebody dislike this man and his videos?!? Hes very informative and knowledgeable and hes a veteran. I myself am a marine corps veteran and it sickens me to see so many haters in this world. Semper fi man long time subb! Keep doing what your doing me and my kids like watching your videos together.
I would like to see more hip pocket classes
Same
Just got back in the door from my three day with my dad. Have to brag on your rapid ridgeline because it was a lifesaver when it began raining buckets the moment we rolled into camp. Had bags hung and a tarp framed over us in 5 mins.
Excited to watch today's vid (and here's to Chili Mac! Enjoyed it twice this weekend myself). Outstanding AF as always Corporal 👍🔥
Thanks for the hip training on the compass. I needed the refresher.
Let's get this out on a tray. Nice! 👍
CPL. K👍👍 What can we say but outstanding AF and thank you, nicely done. Refresher on compass navigation was a plus. MRE review guarantees we bring our own Tabasco and maybe coffee too. Smoreos..good to go. Great video, thanks. Enjoy!
Loved it. Thanks again
THANKS! now i feel old.....this stuff was what i was issued in the ARMY
America’s old school gear is the gear we use nowadays here in brazilian army kkkkkk
Another excellent video, if I don’t notice a notification , it will be in my subscription feed , if it’s Sunday you’ll be there if not there’s always the email reminder , kinda like having half a dozen alarm clocks 🤣🍻
Corporal, Thank you for the memory! I was a Drill Instructor in the Army 1978-1981. I retired in 1992. I have not missed a download since subscribing. Keep up the great work.
Sergeant Major, Retired
Ty for your service...
Ha, I remember that gear felt old when I was using it as standard issue. Always loved how leaky the canvas was.
