equipment turn in
Nate:
so tomorrow, Nate here gets to go to C.I.F. (central issue facility / where all personal equipment is issued to soldiers)! as it is right now, I am looking at walking out of there owing somewhere close to/if not under $400. I truly lost the groin protector that goes with my ballistic body armor (the thing is garbage to begin with!), and I have decided to keep my 3 layer system sleeping bag and my entrenching tool with carrier.
my sleeping bag was issued to me brand spankin new. so in the years that I have used/owned it, I know exactly how it has been taken care of/maintained. if I was to buy the complete system brand new on the civilian market, it would cost me up to $600. I will get if for something like $300 (like I said, it was issued to me brand new and I know how it was taken care of!)
the other thing I am keeping in my entrenching tool. this again was something that was issued brand new (brown cardboard box with e-tool in a plastic bag covered in cosmoline) and I know how it has been taken care of over the years that I have used/owned it.
now, lets not get crazy here. Nate has also secured other things that are already put together as a kit for outdoor use.
Atkinsmatt:
Good luck. You know the deal after all the years.

Excited for you Nate- closing one chapter of life so you can go write a new book! Best of luck......I'm sure some PFC could be talked out of their groin protector though......️
Nate:
I got really lucky yesterday, and got out very cheap.
stlaser:
Bonus!
