What about the pack of 100 clear overlays I bought for patrolling FEX and used 4 because that was the only quantity they came in at Staples?

Take a Cammie Blouse....and your old "high speed" tactical rifle sling....

You can make a pretty sweet nav bag....if you're smart and talented enough.

Several months ago, I actually had one of my Marine students pull out his Platoon Commanders Tactical Notebook in a brief to discuss the 9 line (it was one of the QOD). After the flight, I told him he needed to go home and throw out every pub, notebook and/or piece of paper he still had from TBS. That crap is useless in aviation.

I carry a blank JTAR around in my back pocket just in case shit hits the fan. You never know when you're going to need every piece of crap paper you've ever put your hands on in the military.:rolleyes:

You kidding Trev? The brick goes with me everywhere...humps, FEXs, I'm even looking at right right now.

Don't worry, it won't see much more either. I think the most I used mine was the mortar and arty stuff we did. Is that Scholastic store still running a racket and charging $70 to get all that shit laminated?

But SFM is right, mine was always packed tightly into the dead bottom of my pack everywhere I went.

The going rate is ironically $42. The scholarship still gets theirs by nickel and diming you for everything else though.
