Some other stoof to add to what Stearmann said, keep in mind as a helo guy I've got a bit more room to keep crap.
Binos (I keep mine on my vest/armor), nothing big or fancy, small and compact is the way to go.
Some way to secure yourself to a rotary wing aircraft's outside.
-I fly with a rigger's belt and a daisy chain with a carabiner, allows me to clip into whatever. Useful if you need to ride out on a Kiowa's skids or an Apache stub wing
You need to be able to get to your medical gear with EITHER hand, not just your non-killing hand. Mainly your tourniquet, if you get an arm blown off, the other one needs to be able to stop the bleeding. If you're a helo guy it's easy to rubber band a CAT tourniquet to your body armor in the middle of your chest.
