    Just because you wear cammo, doesn't make you a Walt, ignore the knobheads. Another great video, cheers Dan

      You only become a Walt the minute your mouth claims you served when you didn’t!
      I use loads of ex British Army kit for bikepacking. I have two diff ex army woodland cammo bergens for starters!
      I have never claimed to be in the Military (though I was in the sea cadets one summer holiday aged 12!). 😂
      The people that claim you’re a Walt simply for using ex military gear are simply male Karens, no more no less…

    Just like many others, I spent 9 years running around in the field, being as stealthy as possible wearing similar gear lol, it was great fun, if a little hard at times but fantastic memories. I'm a little older now, still young at heart, but the body now tells me differently. I go out and about playing with military radios, setting up in the field under a tarp or canvas, striking up comms with others around the world, I wouldn't be without my surplus gear, warm, hard wearing and easy to get hold of. That MRE would last me 24 hours, but OMG, the noise of that cooking bag, you could imagine a platoon in the field trying to use them to heat their meals, the wrinkling of that bag was horrendous. Thank you for taking the time to put up these videos really great watching.

    I'm in the US and in the military for a long time. I've eaten hundreds of MREs and most aren't too bad. No idea why they call those cranberries what they do, but all they are is dehydrated cranberries...or we call them "Craisins" because they're cranberry raisins. I love them and buy them in our stores for snacks. The tack bread is supposed to be eaten with the PB and jelly. Pro tip: open the MRE meals along the long side since the spoon is short. Less messy...lol. I assumed Tootsie Rolls were world wide, but glad you got to try them.

    Surplus gear is usually cheaper than civvy gear, it's hard wearing and ideal for keeping a low profile. It's ideal for these sort of camps. I'd go with red as it's a low frequency colour and easy on the eyes so you keep your night vision. I've always been put off bivvy bags by the getting in and out, just looks like a hassle lol

    Camo nets are useful but it’s another thing that you have to carry in and out. All of my tents (12 Survivor & Snugpak) are a dark green so there’s no need. I don’t get companies that only produce bright colours for their tents. Not everybody wants a yellow, orange or red tent. Thanks for sharing. Take care and stay safe.

      I have no probs with people having a cheeky camp, I plan on doing it myself at some point, but when they leave a load of rubbish and throw hot coals against a tree it's annoying.
      In the past I've just made people aware they're their.

    Wearing camo is ok just don't wear rank flashes or regimental badges as they are earned, you have the NBC version with the velcro so you are wearing it ok with no insignia... Deffo green colour with the torch looks a strong bit of kit.. Also the Trekology mat has a crap R rating for cold so stick a foil blanket underneath it to stop ground cold coming up...

    Have looked at hooped bivvi’s but they seem a hassle to get in and out. I have a head torch with a red setting though the green looked alright! Stay safe atb 👍🦊

    I liked how he's setting up, trying to hide from people in the field....and someone walks right behind him on the side that's totally exposed. :D

    Hello mate. I have a dutch army hooped bivy XL size. I stealth camp with a tarp and sleeping matt under me and a sleeping bag inside. I use a similar camo netting to you as there is lots of private land in Dorset. I put braken, leafy branches etc in the camo netting as on its own it doesnt do much good. I go out once a month to get away from the world and unplug so I like to avoid dog walkers and those geeky ramblers t/ trainspotters with the walking sticks and raincoats are even worse lol!

    Red is generally a better colour to maintain your night vision - long exposure can have a negative effect -but I don't think that would apply to you - green is good too especially if its a pure green -which probably isn't the case with your torch - conclusion - go with what ever you feel happiest with! - nice video - good to see you getting out again - happy easter - take care..
