Nowadays they got those solution to soak ur no 4 in i think that one is not bad!:thumbsup:
Ya, that solution is for use in overseas exercise. Last time we did that for Ex Wallaby in Australia. Its called Pynosect. It says "Treated uniforms provide protection to body from bites of mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers and human body lice". Haha...have one extra bottle of it with me cause last time when i issue them out to the men, there's extra.
anybody know of a Nokia 3G phone without camera to recommend? as cheap as it is reliable would be best. price range ander $120 for the phone alone, no contract.
TIA.

Guys I was poor at polishing shoes, someone please share their tips on getting that shine...
Oh, I always bring a little snack or drink in my ammo pouches or in the pockets when going on excercise, you never know when the next meal comes.

It is flamable right?:think:
Not only overseas, most of the time in local actually we din use it last yr when we went to Thailand but use it previous 2 to 3 ICT locally!:bsmilie:
Polish? I tot nowadays just KIWI black will do or use liquid polish faster!
For me when out in the field is like goin for pinic SBO 2 bottle of colour drinks or energy drinks the rest of the SBO pouches will be all my biscuits, chocolates etc.... eat as i am on the move whether on foot or in LR. Full pack will also be packed with tidbits! PARTY TIME!!! :bsmilie:
here's how i shine my boots.
- one THICK layer of KIWI evenly over the surface, leave for 5mins.
- add one thin layer of kiwi over your brush and start brushing lightly over the surface you want to shine. add small amount of water if you want.
- after you get a decent brush shine, it's time to use the cloth method. wrap 1-2layers of polish cloth around your forefinger, and add a thin layer of kiwi. start rubbing the surface you want to shin, going in circles. same as the above, add small amount of water whilst doing so.
from my personal experience, it's more difficult to shine brand new boots. my chiong sua boots from BMT can shine more than my parade boots (which i polished for 2hours) with a brush and some kiwi in 5mins.
one of the best phones u can bring in to a camp legally though..wah, its rather huge... :sweat: but thanks anyway.

true, unless i look at other brands offerings. which i may, i have quite a few more months to do so. :sweat:
pity the 3G Sim card cannot be used on non-3G phones.
The fullpack has evolved from a canvas old and uncomfortable thing to a much better designed one these days.
The key points remain the same.
Comfort is paramount -
Try it on with the proper weight before the field excercise or road march.
For those with extra stuff, eg GPMG, 84mm etc, make sure you get the weight and position sorted with the extra load in place.
Strap everything down, esp in jungle ops, or you will lose items.
Bring an extra set of underwear and socks
Don't forget the fork and spoon so you do not need to open your carefully packed set.
As a reservist, the use of non-standard equipment is more permitted, so use that to pack to your comfort. I use lots of Camelbak products, and attach a small one to my SBO.
A side bag or muesli bag keeps my maps, which I store in a waterproof case.
Bring extra food and items you wish to eat on a long ops or field excercise.
The key points remain the same.
Comfort is paramount -
- pad the pack
- make sure it fit you, tighten the straps properly
- heavy items at the bottom
- when doing stand bys, make sure everything is easy to remove
- put a trash bag for quick removal and waterproofs the bag
- put those items you use frequently at the sides.
