Corporals Corner what do you like better? Old school tech or Modern day outdoor tech? Both has it’s pros and cons I am sure but interested in your take.
this crap is heavy and sucks to carry, but is bombproof
I would have rat f*cord that mre for the desert and tobasco, and black pepper.
Nice video, the old heavy gear helps you appreciate the light high speed new stuff. Nice to see a Marine keeping up with vitamin M! Looking forward to more, 2020 will indeed be a great year.
Milk thistle cleans the liver from build up of taking regular pain meds over a long period of time.
I like my cot.
Your eyes are lovely.
Man that “It’s 2020... It’s going to be a good year” Really hit me,
when was the video made?
My thought was"you have no idea what is to come!"
It was a great year for you. Many turned to you for advice and help to learn how to survive 2020.

Seeing that pup tent immediately lowered my body temperature about 15 degrees and I heard someone say, "You got watch."
My grandfather passed a year ago and I was going through his gear he kept from the Korean War...ended up finding a pup tent just like this! Set it up yesterday for the first time probably is 60+ years. Super cool!
Bro, its literally the same tent. I went thru boot camp in '97 and we were still using shelter 1/2's and the green down sleeping bag. We didnt get the dome tents (that, much like the shelter 1/2's never used) until probably 2001. That green/black bag though....Ive never known such contentment and happiness. Long days in the field, basically hypothermic, then you climb inside and wrap up like a little tactical burrito.....pure bliss. Til some ass hat yells reveille.
I can smell that shelter half canvas. The sound of that 782 gear hitting the ground takes me back.
Dad passed away 3 years ago. Master Gunny USMC. I have his old 50's era shelter half tent. Last year I turned 60 and thought I would do a 3 day camp on my birthday to honor him and the times he took our family camping. I always insisted on using his tent. This was in February. 10 degrees F 60 mpr winds the first night. It was GREAT! I used a ridge line between two trees. No poles, lots of room. I also used another old Shelter half as a floor. bottom snaps lined up. Sealed up nicely. I have a few ideas of using external poles when trees are not handy. Would love to see more of the old stuff. Any ideas on the ridge line mod? Anyway enjoy your stuff. Thanks for keeping us safe.
Thats so cool :) what a great way to honor your dad!
Way awesome great way to honor your dad God bless
I love the little jokes in the video, like the “Burt Reynolds” it makes the video so enjoyable to watch. As it always is
Yup, caught that one too, will save it for the right time in summer....
I just bought 5 full tents. 10 shelter halves with all the ropes, pegs and poles at a flea market for 15$. Everything looks great. The oldest shelter half is dated 1956 and literally looks brand new. I seriously lucked out. 🇺🇸
When i was in boot camp My Drill instructor would put 4 halves together with 4 poles and made a square shaped tent that was much more comfortable.
Lived in a pup tent for three years of my young life. No matter what mother nature put on us it keep us sheltered and safe. From an Army Grunt 11c type. 76-79.
funny how we always talk less when we stare at our camp fire. some of the best moments of my life sat round a fire with friends.
An entire bush pot of Chili Mac....Livin dangerously buttoning up that shelter half.....LOL.
I've been coming here for bug out and camping tips for a little over a year and one of the most important things I've learned is to always keep emergency chilli mac
That moment when “old school” is everything you carried as a Private...and you’re still in...
Oooffff...
Outstanding! Laughed and cried watching you crawl out in the morn! I still have my Alice and it's loaded in the garage. My kid's and wife just look and shake their head's because I can't part with. 59 and still above ground. Luck in 2020!
We had those sleeping bag systems in Alaska, as part of ALIT (Arctic Lite Infarty Training) we had to sleep, in the snow, in -20 degrees for minimum of 4 hours, no shelter just the bag system. It was green bag, black bag, and Goretex outer shell. It was, believe it or not, very survivable. I carry a set hunting in Georgia now all time hunting/camping/etc.
That system is (survival) rated at -40° which, if you like trivia, is exactly the same in F or C.
For those out camping and not looking for a survival experience, it can be critical to understand the difference between "survival" rating and "comfort" rating. (It's a difference of around 25°)
Some gear companies (especially those promoting "ultralight" bags for sport tourists) are totally misleading. A normal person does not sleep comfy in such a bag "rated" for 20°F even when it's not quite below freezing...but they will survive.
I use the black bag (modified*) as an all season bag for my PCTs hiking. The cold of the high mountains catches lots of hikers under prepared, even in the nicer months.
Now if I can just figure out how to make it all work well when it starts raining in the Northwest - that synthetic stuff works great when dry, but there are times and places where dry is impossible.
* I cut out most of the zipper and removed the brass snaps to reduce the weight and I use it quilt style.
I just watched this one and when he said “it’s 2020 it’s gonna be a good year” I busted out laughing
I left the Army 1981. I had "acquired" both halves twice over. I used this tent for solo camping till the late 1990's. I did use ground tarp. And always trenched. Tried to set up on an incline too. I loved using it. Not fancy just a simple easy to set up shelter.
Wow! That brought back memories from boot camp. When I was in Afghanistan, we slept in the huge tents for a while until they built hooches. Moving into the hooch was like an apartment compared to the the huge 20 man tent. Hell, I would have rather slept in the bunker next to the tent instead of the tent. Glad we had the m.o.l.l.e gear too. That pack system was like a giant pillow if you packed it right. Laying on the ground propped up against the pack wasn't so bad either. Figures now that I been put for like 12 yrs now, the MRE'S have gotten better with better selections too. Still gotta have the hot sauce though. Oooorah corporal. That was some good ol' training. Semper fi devil dog!
Lol on the iso mat, “sucked 20 years ago, sucks now” truer words have never been spoken
But an underappreciated piece of gear at the time. Lightweight and much better than sleeping on the ground.
You got that right bro, spent to many nights in a wet, cold fuk'n ditch. Would've covered with a bandana if I had one.
@@paraguaymike5159 are they good at keeping you warm? I want to get a cheap sleeping mat, but don't know which one to get. Comfort is irrelevant to me
@@lukeswain1752 they do the job of keeping you off the ground and freezing your ass off, but that's about it.
When Karrimor started selling these mats,a swedish Arctic polar bear study team complained that they needed 2 when it got to -60C.
I was winter climbing etc and we looked upon the mat as sheer bliss.
I slept in one of these shelter halves in the Baum Holder Mountains in Germany during the winter of 1960. We didn't have the light weight cotton halves but the heavy smelly canvas. Each of us had one half so if you were alone and didn't have a buddy with another half you couldn't pitch a complete tent. You simply rolled up in the half you were issued. We were in a snow field. We scraped the ground bare, pitched it, and made an "over covering" of sticks, some evergreen branches, and covered the whole thing with snow. Sounds crude but provided some additional insulation. AND you wouldn't believe how much heat two body,s and a candle will produce. We were not allowed to build outdoor fires for warmth. AND on day six they set up a shower tent and we were "forced" to take showers. It was below zero nearly all the time and no one got sick.
All good until the shower detail 😂 I did this once in south Sweden - it was so cold my teeth gnashed but good to toughen up 🤠
I served in the Army in 1983 and I recall that our C-Rations included the P38 and also a miniature Tabasco sauce bottle.
I remember all of this stuff used to be so cheap. My family was poor growing up and I had a Nam vet for a dad. We saved a lot of money going to the surplus stores. Not just on camping but even stuff we just used around the house, and even a few things I wore to school. Sad that all of that stuff has dried up and it's so expensive now. It's hard to even find a good surplus store that's selling legitimate surplus these days. Oh well, that's life. Thanks for the nostalgia trip.
SLUG agreed. Good surplus stores are few and far between. I live near Fort Knox and there are only like 2 left and they’re ungodly expensive. There is 1 or 2 more surplus stores but they’re on post and I don’t know that I can shop on post not being affiliated with the military.
Yeah back when I was a boyscout we used to get it cheap also at the army
avy store..canteens to mess kits and all kinds of canvas tents. Now everything is so costly .
I saw the black bean MRE and thought: "Two people eating beans, and sleeping in a confined space. What could possibly go wrong!?"
Don't light a match.
😁, Agree!
A lot of showing your love for your combat bubby, shooweee MRE farts are the worst well except when my ex-wife would eat sunflower seeds DAMNIT GIRL your fowl.
The Chili with Beans MRE makes some atrocious back blast. I'm still in the military and we have a guy in my unit that eats it and conveniently waits until we are in a confined space..
"Are you EVER going to stop farting?? Is that even a remote possibility??" And it all goes downhill from there.
I'm getting total flashback vibes to basic training here. I love that no matter how much tech improves the old ways still work.
Fun fact: In the German Bundeswehr, this type of shelter was called a "Dackelgarage" (literally "Dachshund - Garage")... :-D
Another nick name for these is "Pup Tent". Funny that Germans see the dog house resemblance too.
Right on at 19:05 Corporal. Single dad here, struggling to make ends meet every dang day. When the stress gets heavy I bring my kid on an adventure, just head out to my camp, get a fire going and enjoy the Milky Way with my daughter. We point out constellations, I teach her knots, make some grandiose chow and relax. She isn't old enough to get it yet, but in due time. Great video as always Sir. You in the upcountry? You're a gentleman and a scholar.
I am laughing so hard. I so appreciate your honesty. I am sorry you had a bad night sleep and then bad coffee on top of it. You were true to your word and did this outing. Power to you. Thank you Corporal
Good lord, the nostalgia hit me like a truck as soon as I saw that alice pack and webbing. Then the shelter halves? Oh man... I still remember getting issued those first round of ecws gortex and thinking 'but I have a poncho'. Haha.
I slept on an isomat when my son's Boys Scout troop camped out in the mountains of western maryland in late January. I froze and my body was rough and sore next morning. Only saving grace was that 3 of the scoutmasters were world class chefs. Blueberry pancakes, sausage, bacon, and kettle blueberry cobbler in a dutch oven was my breakfast.
I have a bunch of gear from those days..surplus stores rock. But having a messed up back and sleep apnea keeps me from doing this anymore. I keep telling my wife I want to take my kayak down the river for a week of camping, she thinks I'm crazy lol...well the VA says I am too. I gave daddy President Bush an oatmeal cookie bar when we were in Kuwait, he laughed and thanked me. My 1st Sgt wasnt happy. But that's how this Doc rolled.
Semper Fi
This is probably the most authentic & honest you, that we’ve seen chatting by the fireplace. I appreciate it, we all have crappy times & it’s what will keep me watching, rather than the, ‘yeah everything is perfect’ spiel. Whatever issues you’re facing, I hope you’re ok. I’m sending positivity & love your way💕 I’d love to share that fireplace with you, but I’ll pass on the chilli mac 🤮 lol.
Thanks and nice Hair BTW
Corporals Corner Thank you 😊
My cousin lived in a two man tent for six months in Vietnam during the monsoons! I woke up one morning and could not get out of my tent because it was covered in a thick coating of ice. I had to take my entrenching tool, fold it over and pry the middle tent peg out so I could roll out the side of my tent.
Yes, they are small, uncomfortable, but, they will keep you alive, if you set them up properly, dig a drain trench around them and use forest debris as a flooring!
Spot on! 👍 Problem that canvass is heavy. Tent poles bulky. That’s why good to have buddy.
Still love watching this "old school gear" video. If you ever do one with WW2 gear make sure you notify me. lol (If you could find the gear.) It would be cool to see what the guys like my dad carried. Wonder if it was the same. He was airborne. Went into Oran. Also many other places... Burma and more. Years of jumping, pushing and shoving. I grew up camping in an old green Army tent. (I'm old... it was the 1960's and '70s. So not so very far removed. Thanks for bringing a bit of history alive, both military and bushcrafting.
I served in the military from 78 - 86 and in all that time, and since that time, I still use the old skills taught to me. I camp under a bivvy, in an old school sleeping bag as a ground dweller. I cook on BCB cook systems and the only modern addition I use is a good quality blow up ground mat and modern tarp. For me, less is best, and even here in the cold wet UK weather, I am still alive and kicking with my 60th this year. Keep it coming, I love to watch your videos.
Being without profitable employment can be difficult ,I been there. I pray that things will improve sooner than later for you. I sub your channel and I recommend you to my friends. You show and teach things I haven't thought about it years. I'm in my sixties now . I still try to remember stuff from back then . I forgotten the trick with the fold over tent Pole for set up ! Soon as it's warm enough for me to get back outside I think I'll break out my shelter half. I have a iso Mat and a mattress ,can't get back up if I just use the isomat . LOL 😉👍 .
We used to sleep with that sleep system down to -20's and -30's at Fort Wainwright, AK. Inside the Stryker or in the tent without the heater. Did it work? Yes. Was I warm? Somewhat yes. Warm enough at that temperature it was good enough not to freeze, but I wouldn't say I was toasty. We'd also take our arctic mittens and put them over our feet. The worst part was waking up and having to get dressed inside the bag so you could get out to answer the call of nature or it was time to get up.
I was up in Richardson (93-96) and I used to use always sleep with mickey mouse boots used as a pillow in the old school green fart bags. Nothing like putting on warm boots in the morning when its -10
For me that's 45mins after laying down ha!
"Its 2020, its gonna be a good year".... 6 months later and here we are
This brings back memories, 74-78 USMC, We were still using the two packs from WW2, when i got out and joined the guard none of the Army guys knew how to set up a GI Shelter half tent. Well I gave him the class. Semper Fi
I am in hard times , california divorce , lost business of course
Depression , your videos always give me a chance to get out of my head , i hope your doing ok, its hard to be unemployed but i would start a business with you in a second
Thank you for your fine work , never quit
Hang in there brantcompany.
I love how this guy always finishes his lines with complete confidence "and youre good to go" or ' now youre in business" love it.
Old school yes, but more than that this is real school, and one of your best videos. I have taken that sleep system to minus 15f and got through it although the bivy was too small to zip all the way shut. I got a laugh about twentytwenty gonna be a good year. Hindsight being what it is.
Brings back memories. My first time in a pup tent 1963. Yeah, I'm old.
Caffeine and calories = corporals corner you can smell the military.
Gotta love those deep thoughts while staring into a campfire alone in nature....reminds you of who you are...
I can remember the smell of this gear. Simple Green and mold when you get it from supply, but it better smell like premium detergent and sunshine when you turn it in. Memories of OSUT at Knox and the first 3 years in, before we got all the hi-tech TA-50 for the war in Asscrackistan.

laughed so hard at this
Hunger makes everything taste good.
Who else read that in Gordon Ramsey's voice? 🤣 Just me?
To be fair I think Gordon might be more lenient about prepackaged ingredients when it comes to backpacking
This was awesome! Love seeing the oldschool gear. Easily my favorite channel on RUclips right here. I have learned more about "Bushcraft" off of your channel then anywhere else and one of the top reasons Im getting back into the woods. Keep doing what youre doing you are a great inspiration man! Ever up in the Minnesota area steaks on me!
In basic training we each got half a tent almost just like this one. In the field, you and a buddy put the tent together and had your shelter for the night lol. Between guardshifts you'd get about 4 hours sleep. Good times.
Try that with what we were issued in the late 60s, gor what? To make it more realistic do it on some rainy days!
my knees are hurting just looking at that gear giving me flash backs lmao
The older we get Corp the more we realize, we cant do what we did when we were younger and more importantly, life's too short for bad coffee!!
Bro you literally have the best channel on the whole tube! Semper fi, brought back some good memories.
Went to US Army Basic in the 1980's and they still issued the steel pots, shelter halves and M16's (no A1, A2). Good memories about what at the time was a miserable experience.
As a kid in the 50s and 60s we camped like this carried our shelter half’s. Used a wood frame trapper Nelson pack. WW II mess kits and canteens, web belts etc. wooden handled entrenching tool, a ground cloth and a canvas style sleeping bag. GI flashlights etc. our camp probably looked an awful lot like a WWII camp complete at times with a command style wall tent and a field kitchen.
No fancy stuff most of the time though.

Just rewatch this and I have to comment that every time you set up a shelter the lines are always tight and sharp and it looks just like a picture
Some Fritos would go really good with that Chili mac. Nice vid man!
I am an Army vet and I love chilli mac. When I was in the military and others complained I always complimented the cooks and they gave me extra servings. I have slept in the same shelter you have set up and you are correct it is not comfortable but it will keep you alive. Crawling into the sleeping bag is the best but getting up on a cold winter morning to eat or go to the latrine is the worst. I suffered frostbite on my hands and feet. Even in the mid 40s my hands and feet turn to ice and it doesn't matter even if I am wearing thick socks or gloves. I remember one night while on guard duty in Korea I looked up at the sky and asked God if he ever got me out of the cold I would go somewhere warm. I now live in Florida and I am here to stay.
I am an unassigned Marine E5, meaning my active duty was in the late '60s. Never issued any of this fancy Cammo stuff. Very familiar with this shelter half 'technology'. Grew up using my Dad's half from WW2.
Corporal, and many of your peers do not often how situational awareness is a requirement in pitching a shelter. Haven't heard anyone mention imminent weather consideration, nor how to set up shelter without a shelter-buddy. At MCB 29 Palms, after getting the FDC/CP tent set up, for the 1st time, noticed rain front was coming in. As I prepared, the CO commented that without a buddy & that I could expect to drown. I pitched the tent with the back toward the storm. The tent comes with a 3-piece pole; I use 2 of them for the head pole and 1 for a foot pole. Low-profile was exactly what was needed. Snug as a bug, while the CP tent bore the brunt of the gale and collapsed. Enjoyed seeing the CO/XO trying to over come that in the middle that storm.
Today, I carry (3) 3-piece poles made from PVC, each section w/ cap @ bottom and coupling at joint. The cap is center-drilled with a 3" bolt/wing nut through it to use as an adjustable spike into the ground. I store a 6-8" nails as tiee-down spikes, wrapped cordage inside each section, ready when needed. Each pipe is slotted at both ends to facilitate connection w/ cap or coupling. Why (3) poles, three is two, two is ....
If you think a picture would assist, I can send one to you. Just ask.
Semper Fi, Brother Carry on. Well done Engage, Adapt, Persevere.
just realised on these solo trips it shows him getting out of the tent so he literally wakes up turns the cam on the gets back in and acts like he is coming out.
or leaves it on all night. ;)
Hi. I learned how to set up the tent that way. The earth is heap up on the inside of the tent. A drainage ditch is dug outside around the tent. The tent floor can be dug deeper, for more comfort or protection against shrapnel. Greetings from Portugal
I was an army brat and my dad gave me a complete tent with both shelter halves, tent stakes and poles, I thought the stakes were green. This was back when I was in grade school in late 1979 early 80s. I have fond memories of that tent and the smell (old moth balls). I wish I still had it.
Enjoy these videos as I am retired Army. I have much of the gear you detail. I served in VietNam and Desert Storm to show you the timeline. I then served as a Army civil service with 82nd Abn Div and 10th Mnt Div in Iraq x2 and Afghanistan x2. I was side by side with soldiers at forward operating bases. In VietNam, as a crew chief, I took Marines into Combat Assaults' and brought them out. That gear brings back memories. Good job.
I get hungry every time I watch your videos.
Loved your video which reminded me of hundreds of camping trips with the Scouts since the 1960s through about 2010 and around the world. Thank you.
The moment he pulled out the Tabasco I knew he was as American as they get.
Strong work devil dog! As a former corpsman (4th MARDIV 1/25, heavy weapons) this video was a flashback to the mid 90’s. We weren’t “authorized” to set up shelter halves, but I used to use two poles and use my half as a lean to that a person can just slide under, try it, works pretty good.
I was wondering if you "could" do that? Thanks.
Rewatching the classics.....
Same here.
2020 was a good year for me. Got furloughed from my job in the spring for a month and a half, so I hit the woods just about every week during that time. Just recently got laid off temporarily last week so I’m hitting the woods again this week. It’s all what you make of it 👍🏼
I loved my shelter-half, but I’m in the same boat as you, being in the field like that is easier when your younger. You had me laughing like crazy - memories were coming back to me that I had completely forgotten about. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Pretty much the same as it was in the early 80's. Equipment was heavy and bulky. We didn't even have MRE's yet and carried canned food. It is a good thing things have gotten better.
That’s what’s it all about, nothing beats alil good fashion mother nature to cleanse the soul!
That chillimac was spot on choice! 💯
Glad I found this old one. I still have a bunch of the TA-50 gear and it makes me nostalgic to go through.
Yup. Same equipment we had in the Army minus the Kbar. We just had the bayonet instead. My nephew retires in 2 years and has been deployed 3 times. He is 0311. They stay in air conditioned cargo boxes. Must be nice. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
Thank you!! I am still old school. My BOB is either an old ALICE set up or an 18th-century Longhunyers kit. My dad served in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. I had his "pup tent" but as a young one, I traded it for a modern dome tent. now I wish i would have kept dad's pup tent.

I like your old school. I am pre- old school. You might say ancient school. I worked with Boy Scout for decades. I saw some of these surplus because my assistant Scoutmasters used them. Also most of them were Marines as your self. Thank you for your service and thank you for great training.
The only thing missing is some of your buddies like in 'Blazing Saddles' 😁, a great way to spend your time during this crazy time. Keep these great videos coming and stay safe and happy.
That chilli Mac made me so hungry! I want to get out into the Bush asap!
These old school videos are fun to watch!
27:15 Bwahahaha! Sheer genius...I never would have thought of that 😆
"gonna watch this fire burn out, then I'm goin to bed"... *adds more wood* 🤣
It always rained. And a fire?!? Never had a fire. Who loved humping rain gear but never being allowed to wear it? Soaked to the bone a few degrees above freezing and crawling into that shelter and zipping into your bag... that was heaven. Fall asleep in like two seconds. To my dying day I will always appreciate warm, dry feet.
Three years in Germany and 45 years later and my feet are still cold. I sleep with a blanket over my feet even in the summer here in Texas.
Boy does that bivy tent bring back Army memories (just without the campfire & hot meal lol)!
I was issued one of these when I first enlisted in 2000. Good times.
Man, I am addicted to ALL of your videos...OUTSTANDING. I SUPPORT YOUR CHANNEL....BEST CHANNEL ON YOU TUBE.
I am a former Marine myself. That is the gear that we had back in the day. I was in from 82 to 90. We also got the C rations. Pretty cool video Marine. Semper Fi.
Thank you , nothing beats the warmth , light and comfort of a good safe fire in the wild , our only friend really ♥️ soothing our new year resolutions...respect Mr Corporal for you gift to us
"That tastes like crap" 😂 an authentic man not concealing a bad night before a very bad coffee 👍🤠
Oh man! Seeing you eating that improvised Chili-Mac and Cheese, enjoying life, had me saying, “A day in the Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal’s a banquet, every paycheck a fortune. I Love the Corps!” However, I was Air Force, but can still relate. There’s no school like the old school. The stuff just works.
I feel like he is dying to talk about the bullshit going on in our country, but he is holding back, I respect that and him
Why? We need more people to be outspoken and call out this BS in my opinion and push back however and whenever we can
@@RockyMountainWest13 Because it's a family channel and all our entertainment doesn't need to be about politics, alot of people use ot to get AWAY from as forementioned politics.
@@oldman87yearsago.34 I do agree with you but it has already gotten to the point where the main stream government narrative has been plastered everywhere you look. You may not see it in this particular video but guarantee you’ll see it either before or after you watch it. The people who are pushing the main stream government agenda aren’t shy about saying their BS whenever and however they can and it seems to be working. Look at all these highly brainwashed people. We are literally living in the twilight zone and common sense doesn’t exist for 80% of the population.
@@RockyMountainWest13 Hey man, I agree with you completely, but I think its good that as long as you watch what you do here you can watch and enjoy an evening sometimes without worrying about what some cracked up politician is doing.
@@oldman87yearsago.34 very good point my friend. Didn’t mean to come off so argumentative. We do need more outlets to get away from all the political BS. I hope you’re having a good evening and you take care.
Dude, this brings back memories...or flashbacks lol. Makes me almost miss my shelter half. Thanks for posting this, it was a great one. Been a fan of the channel for a while. Keep up the great work!
The fact that you took the time to recreate Chili Mac MRE disappointment is not only comedic genius, but it's thoughtfully funny! The crap coffee though, I feel real pain in that one.
You can tell this was made before March when he says "It's 2020. Got the whole year ahead of us. It's going to be a good year" Hahahaha. Good video! I hope everyone out there is being safe, prepared, and vigilant.
Motrin for dessert! Fragging awesome!
20:50 if only he had known the horrors that lay ahead
Josh Hawley ikr
Glad the Army created a new tent getting those ones setup were the biggest pain in the ass lol.
It's 2020, gonna be a good year..... lol. Thank goodness it's almost over!
Just wait until 2021 kicks off with a civil war part 2.
Man does this bring back the memories. I joined up in ‘89. We had the same load out in the Army.
Semper Fi!! Brought back some good memories! Got out in 88. I'm getting friging old!!
I was in the Australian navy back in the late 90’s. We used a hoochie. Kinda like a cross between what you used and a us poncho. No poles though. We made whatever kind of shelters we wanted. No sleeping mats either. I remember getting m&m’s that were about 3 years past their best before date in ration packs. They were chalky but we loved them anyway. We went absailing and horse riding… good times!
