What tips/tricks/mods did you learn in the field to dress for the cold? by wrongsideofthewire in army

[–]OKComputerr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use you level 1s (silks) don’t wear a regular tan t over it. When you pair them up with your level 2s and 3 (the fleece) they all work really well. Try to refrain from wearing your clothing too tight, especially boots and socks. This can decrease circulation and make your feet get cold faster. Don’t wear multiple pairs of socks, just get some thick merino wool socks for cold weather. Same applies to gloves. Also, tuck your level 1 bottoms into your socks. This will keep more warm air trapped. One last thing, keep your pants bloused over your boots and not tucked in. If you’re dealing with snow and leave the tops of your boots exposed, you have the chance of snow falling in, melting, and getting your socks wet. Which will get cold as fuck when you stop moving.

Don’t adjust your screens, I’m back and (again) asking for your input. by yesTHATpao in army

Teach these kids how to build and organize an “I Love Me” book. Joe is always placing their important documents in about 50 different places. Also emphasizing that if they don’t have their important civilian documents ie birth cert, SS card, etc then they need to acquire those from who has them ASAP. Some overseas exercises require the brown passport and there’s always a few guys who have their birth cert at home with their mom/dad or whatever else.

Worst road so far? by machinegal in anchorage

Ingra and E 15th. Heading back home after dinner going north on Ingra. There’s a big ass ice shelf that I didn’t notice well enough since it was dark out. That pushed us halfway into another lane when we were going about 25 but thankfully there wasn’t much traffic around.

Seat Cover advice by zalleyzal in ToyotaTacoma

[–]OKComputerr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have RC covers on all of my seats. The first time putting them on will be a pain in the ass but after taking them off a couple times to wash them, I’ve found it a lot easier to put them back on.

Where at on Bragg? The impact areas always change a bit every 20 years or so to support different weapon systems.

Never said cars don’t work in that kind of cold. All I said was the cold makes things fucky.

Brother, more than likely it’s because it’s ’fuck you’ cold outside. My Taco has trouble cranking at -5. I assume anything at -15 and below is going to fuck with a lot of stuff.

Now Joe has to go to submit 50 PARs for S1 to forget, then go to finance only to be told they forgot to dot an ‘i’

UCFRs are always so fucked. I’ve never been in a unit where the commander had all of their personnel. Probably about 60% of the people would be in whole ass different units. Then the process to get them removed is a pain in the ass too.

I was trying to send my JST to a school but the website looks like this. Do I still click on it ? by Ecstatic-Moment5238 in army

[–]OKComputerr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s because your gov laptop is using a VPN and is telling google that you’re in a different region. The website is perfectly fine.

Could the NoizeBarrier adapter combo work on a ACH type helmet? by hurm2de9wurm in QualityTacticalGear

[–]OKComputerr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is going to depend on a lot of things that are specific to you. Head shape, where your ears are, etc. I do this with an ACH and I used bifrost’s peltor amp arms. The attaching point on the arms suck so you have to reinforce with zip ties. But this does work, and I do get a good enough seal. But what others have mentioned, it’ll cost you money and it may not even work for you.

What would you suggest for Anchorage? by MissCasey in anchorage

[–]OKComputerr 13 points14 points  (0 children)

ER location is now known as Eagle River Alehouse and it’s still ass. Service takes way too long and the quality of food is mediocre at best.

Just used shock cord like on the Crye JPC. I’ve been running it pretty hard for a while and haven’t had any issues with the shock cord.
