Hey Corporal 🫡🔥🤙
You gotta get the tactical tailor shoulder straps and replace the glide buckles on the main flap with fastex clip buckles. Absolutely necessary upgrades.
You should get one of these that's not your nice one, have them deconstruct it and start your own backpack make it right after this original one but your version!
Corporal Kelly's Alice pack!
Just an idea !
Have you considered the hidden woodsman.? They're based outta Maine.
Came here to comment this @@omalley5005
Nothing like watching Corporals corner on a Thursday afternoon.
Most Will Miss it
@@recall5811 I will share it out. People who don't see your videos definitely miss out
Still keep an alice in my truck 50 years later . Heck , bunch of my gear is old canvas !
Finland makes some awesome equipment. I have one of their assault packs and it's bomb proof, but my favorite is actually their super old surplus Bread Bag that makes an awesome haversack.
Have had the Savotta Jaakari M for about 5 years now and it's great. Genuinely brilliant.
Being a Marine, I always am partial to ALICE. The only thing that comes close is an NVA rucksack I picked up as a souvenir many years ago. That thing has been almost indestructable. Semper Fi.
Thank you for your service I also served Thank you for the video
I would prefer to support the Finnish company. Years ago I met some people that worked for Valmet of Finland and was very impressed with them.
Good video. Former SF here. My Master Sgt E8 on my ODA (Operational Detachment "A" Team, selected a the Large Alice fo rmy 12 man team. I liked it. He showed us, how big, by putting a whole Army footlocker INSIDE the rut lol. We junior guys were young and great shape so 110 -120 lbs was acceptable. Now, age 71, I struggle with 80, and carry 60 lbs but struggle. Body Armor and ammo is extra. I have a 25 lb pack for my German Sheppard and he carries his med kit and food. Thanks for sharing.
Packs from back in the years of old combat still function
Just me- durability overrides
all other factors.
If you've ever been way the eff
out in the sticks and had crucial gear crap out on you,
you'll agree.
I've had shoulder straps pull
loose from lesser rucks, and
a fairly expensive pair of
boots come undone while out
and about in BFE.
Neither was field-repairable.
Just had to gut it out and
trudge back to basecamp
I love packs that give you easy access to the lower portion. It's so convenient.
I have used the Medium and Large Alice since Vietnam. I like the versatility and the external frame as the frame can be used to haul things when the pack is removed. I built a shelf for mine (very handy). They are easily "field repaired", parts are still available and I have developed a way to make them extremely water resistant. If, you know how to use and modify the Alice you just can't go wrong.
Richard, Welcome Home Brother . Thank You For Your Time In Service. I still have mine Large ALICE and Medium ALICE Pack and Frames from when I was in U.S.Army. 1979-1986. You can't wear them out.
LC-1s have small D-rings in the bottom of the main pouch. You can use those D-rings to shrink the pack down to a small assault pack.
I've done it with a Rothco LC2. Just use the frame mounting straps on the horizontal bar patches. It carries high, but works.
Great to hear honest reviews from someone with decades of experience! Thank you Corporal!
The finnish and the Swedish do make some high-quality gear absolutely.
Two small savotta side pouches add a lot more versatility to it well worth buying
MOLLE 2 sustainment pouches.
I can't describe how much I love my Savotta gear. The fellas across the Baltic Ocean sure know their stuff!!
Very much looking forward to the bag you are developing!
Great to have your reviews. You are always thorough. Btw, that Beech tree you've been using is spectacular.
Love my medium Alice packs. Would like to get the Savotta. Thanks for going over the features. I didn't know that Savotta's where around that long. Good to know, thanks, Corporal. 👍🏻
There is also an aluminum internal frame insert for the Savotta M.
Also if you do get to link up, and make a bag, I would definitely be getting one.
Great video, Corporal! Savotta makes good gear. I have a Savotta LJK 202, their most inexpensive pack, and it's built like a tank. I often take it into the woods for scouting or in lieu of a haversack.
Buy once, cry once.
Savotta is very comfortable, wouldn't trade it for any other.
The large savotta jaakari is my favorite pack!
Not just a simple gear review. Explanations of how and why. You can watch gear reviews everywhere but have those people sweated and actually used these. Thx
Hey Shawn, proud to be part of your team. I have your six sir. I’m like a kid in the candy store today. I received my package today a got my Ranger grip 78 green and a compass/map dial tool along with a waxed pouch. But the best is yet to come. My CC hatchet is on the way. Can’t wait. Thank you for all your help support and hard work you share.
I loved mine. I kept using one for 20 years after the army.
Thanks for the info. I've learned something. I've used an Alice Pack for decades for hiking but I never knew that top flap was velcroed together. I checked mine and yup, it opens. I also never knew you could slide an axe behind the pouches, I always put a hachet velcroed inside the frame. I also use the cargo shelf.
Cpl K. likely knows but didn't
state that the top pouch in
the ALICE is for your maps
and grid charts, although it
will not burn up if you were
to stick some energy bars
or some GU gels in there
Great mid-week video Cpl. Kelly. My large Alice pack and frame do not get the workouts they used to. I found a replacement lumbar belt at the surplus store near me.
Kaufmans, as recommended by Blackie Thomas. That store has everything..well almost.
Hopefully after my next spinal surgery and my healing up process, I'll be able to ruck it up again..( light weight).
See you on Sunday.
Oh i like the going back to basics
Awesome AF.
I was never in the military but I did close to five years homeless in Phoenix,AZ and I had an Alice pack and that thing was tough as nails. I would definitely recommend that to anyone who wants an almost bullet proof pack.
What you have there is a Small/Med, I have the same set up but in Large/Medium! Mine has 3 small pockets below the 3 large pouches on the back!! I carried a Savotta back in the 80's(or the 90's) I did not care for it! Granted it was not that model (no idea what model it was). I much prefer my ALICE pack! As a backup I much preferred the British Ruck pack! There is a difference between a Catapult and a Trebuchet ( Catapult has a Pocket that launches your ballistic, using a tension system, the Trebuchet has a pocket attached to rope or chain then launched using a counterbalance (weight) system! I retired in 2006 with 30.5 years of service in the U.S. Army! Dec 1975 - May 2006
Love Alice dearly, but Savotta makes a killer pack for real.
The Savotta is a world class piece of gear. I bought the Large pack they offer in the same style and it’s bombproof. Tons of room in their Large pack and it’s built great. You cannot go wrong with the Savotta medium or large.
Good info. The Navy never gave us packs so I rely on you for this info..
If you want to love/love your med ALICE might I suggest the molle II wrap around pad/belt moves the weight to your hips. The comfort is incredible the sewing mods minimal. Haven't had a chance to field test mine but walking around the house with load is phenomenal.
Just one comment: A blade (ax in your case), even if covered, must always face the oposite side of the body. keep up the good work.
Glad I didn't miss this. We were looking for the mid week on Wednesday. Looking forward to your classes starting in October. My wife and I both signed up. When's your Corporal Camp Construction and Cooking book coming out?
I have two Alice packs medium and large. I wouldn’t get rid of them at gun point.
I have a medium and a frame. I'd like a large, but they're pretty scarce, probably due to the SF connection.
@@jonweaver4987 I came across my large Alice pack by accident. I found it in the bottom of a box in a surplus store. It was unissued and marked $14.99 “NO FRAME” and of course I snagged it. I’m sure I spoiled an employee’s day when I found it.
I love my medium alice pack. I did do the Hellcat mod to it. Made it more comfortable and expanded its capacity.
Corporal, you out did yourself. Here we go again. Another informative video. I've used Miss ALICE for years and I have to admit she's a keeper. But with age come age comes a squeeky body, and a greater desire for comfort. So I put together a USMC ILBE pack from NOS parts and sustainment pouches. I figured for camping and other circumstances a 'greyman' cover would work. I keep it filled with gear, some freezdried vittles, and all I need to add is a change of clothes and I'm set. I don't plan to 'run 'n gun' should things get dicey. But to be able to relocate as quickly as possible is beneficial.
I had the original ALICE pack. Like you said you learned to have a love/hate relationship with it.
But it was functional once you figured it out.
78-83
Semper Fi
Shawn, Outstanding Review on those packs I still got my Large ALICE and Medium ALICE when I was in the U.S. Army 1979-1986 . Thanks for sharing your Time, Wisdom, Experience, Knowledge. Also Thank You For Your Time In Service and Keeping Us Safe..
My backpack has a name and it's ALICE
Cowabunga.! Been there done that. Love both packs mate. Cheers from Australia.
I heard that Tom gobble I’d love to see a over night hunting video I was looking at both of these packs the other day I’m still a little torn between them I like the old school but love the look of the new school
Ive humped an alice since 1988. They arent the best but I know I lived out of one for awhile. But as I have gotten older and my day hikes are now with young grands, I have moved to a Savotta jakkari S. It is perfect and indestructible like ole alice gal.
Another killer video as always
I love your gear review videos, no bs just your honest opinion.
Alice pack for me. It served me well for years and carry on. Plus, you have the frame for any scenario.
Thank you for pack review. Catch your video Sunday. Hopefully Texas treated you nice. Sir have a great day
RUclips must really like this video, top of recommendations today. 🎉
they were drunk
Love it! Great video, Shawn! Basics, gear, and skills mixed with overnighters. Sounds fantastic!
I lost my old alice pack so 10 years ago I bought a savotta medium size. Works greT
Another great video 👍👍👍👍👍
I found a NOS alice frame at work, and my cousin gave me an old pack. I have yet to put them together but I am really excited to use it when I do.
Thank you! I appreciate the videos!
Thanks for the video ❤
ALICE pack and LBE has
proven themselves and
earned a place with me.
I've never served in the military but my uncle and neighbor who did use to give me bdu and gear all the time when I was a kid to go camping still have it all including my NOS alice pack
Just can't get enough of this channel! Love these packs
Thanks again for your advise!
I have just got to get me a Jaakari.
I’ve been using that jaakari for about 3ish years. Put a small admin pouch on the front, canteen on the side. Fkn love that thing man. It just works without all the bells and whistles
A Medium Alice pack is hard to beat.
Loving vids like this.
Excellent review! Thank you. I love a good backpack.
Really enjoy the gear reviews!
Thanks for Sharing
Thanks Corporal. Get in touch with Spec-Ops Brand, they’re down in Texas. They make some of the best heavy duty gear I’ve ever used. That sounded like one heck of a gobbler in the background.
Outstanding AF!!!
My shoulders got rubbed raw just looking at that ALICE pack 🤣
A true inspiration just for the sheer volume and consistency of content ✌️
Thank you for showing and explaining these packs.
You cov3red a lot of information.
Being non military, I have never seen these packs in person.
Now I can figure out which will work best for me.
I was in the marine corps in 1979 and the Alice pack is i what got to use and I still have one to this day its tuff and it still does what it was designed to do I don't load it as heavy as I did when I was a young marine in my beloved corps but it holds all my nessary gear and comfort items that I take tent camping or hammock camping I could see using the other pack as well and as they say ya get what ya pay for so I say get the good gear the first time
I own and use the Savotta Jaakari currently. I have used many others through my life and find it to be the overall best. I paid a lot of money for it and it has been worth the price!
I've been away for awhile and just trying to catch up with your vids. Great stuff as always. And once again, the search for the perfect pack goes on.
Now I got to find one of these! Thanks for the nice vid!
The savotta is just amazing 😍
This was something different but I really enjoyed it corporal!! Thanks for the pack review. I'm looking for a new one for camping, bushcraft, hiking and overall outdoor use. No matter what I've seen I always came back looking at the alice pack. I love the durability and simplicity of it!!
Very interesting. Live the way you teach very easy to follow.
I’m the same with you, Mr. K. You were one of my first channels I watched and I still love you, even though I have been playing away for a bit 😊
😁👍🏼
Thank you for the midweek...
Have a great weekend! See you Sunday!
"Outstanding " both bags are worth carrying, yes
love the t shirt pal!the band is awesome too!love your content
Nice backpacks & video. Thanks !!! Alan 🇨🇱
Great show.
Thank you for that information. Good stuff
Excellent as usual, my wife and i agree the changes are great.
Excellent info as always.
Great videos lately Corp Kelly.
I can vouch for the Savotta. Bought one after your first review years ago. Good to go!
Thank you for telling me what those extra straps were on the gear bag now I know how to fix mine.
Thanks usefull information
Good evaluations of these bags.
Loved the Alice Pack
I didn't know there was any other backpack BUT an A.L.I.C.E. pack, either medium or large. I've carried both. I carried a large only when I was required to be the R.T.O. and carried the PRC-25 in the radio pocket. I prefer the medium and still use it for all my hiking or camping needs.
Thank You ...
Did I hear a turkey?
Ooo, Corporal gonna have a good hunting season!
Yup I heard it a little closer!
Love the gear review! Thanks, Corporal for bringing back lovely, hateful memories of the Alice! You ain’t lying either, love that gear! Hate it too! And it’s indestructible!!!
Semper Fi, Marine
I love mine. Endlessly customizable with that molle everywhere.
Love your videos
Excellent!
