Leather gloves for climbing out of a burning tank? Seriously Dude?
He doesn't carry Imodium and Baby Wipes, that tells me this hero goes back to a bunk every night

I don't know about baby wipes but Charmin has some great little rolls that fit easily into any size backpack and are handy to have around. I only do Immodium if it's explosive and I don't have time for it to work itself out of my system (such as taking transport within 24 hrs).

I've gotten used to exclusively wearing hiking sandals (Chacos) because I didn't have space for shoes. A few months ago I did an adventure race where I was trudging through snow in them. Pushing my bicycle. I can now do a ten km jog barefoot. I just got around to trying on my jeans again because I only had space for nylon cargo pants. Jeans suck for anything besides sitting around anyway. I had a pair of socks or two, but I've gotten used to forgoing underclothing at all. Someday I'll start behaving like a civilized human being again, but it wasn't really my strong suit anyway.
I thought it was funny when I met up with a couple of Brits in a Range Rover near Novosibirsk packed to the rafters with spare ... whatever.
Did I lose some weight? I think I freaked out the staff at Auschwitz.
Return to Guns, Knives, Gear, Tech and ....STUFF!!!
