trying to finish up getting my gear together for a 2 weeks field problem i have coming up and i realized something. all a soldier really needs to be sleep well in the field is three things.
a poncho
a poncho liner
and the knowledge to use them properly.
just wondering what other schools of thought there are on the subject.

Thats a start.
You need food,water and shelter.
The poncho and liner can be the shelter.
You need water or a way to filter what you can find,
and you will eventually need food.

3. Maid Service

I'm thinking you need:
1. A good man on your left
2. A good man no your right
3. Plenty of ammo for you all
