Yes, I'm bored, with far too much time on my hands at the moment!
I've put this together. It applies to both Jed's and SAS really. What do you think?
Allied Operation Jedburgh kit recommendations.
PLEASE BEAR IN MIND, WHATEVER KIT YOU BRING WILL NEED TO BE CARRIED! ALSO CONSIDER YOUR OWN COMFORT, AS WELL AS YOUR OWN ABILITY TO CARRY IT ALL ABOUT.
UNIFORM
1) Denison smock.
2) Shirt (any collared type is fine).
3) Trousers (battledress, denims, U.S HBT's or para trousers).
4) Sturdy, broken in boots (ammo boots, cut down hilegs, corcorans, with anklets where appropriate).
5) Headgear (British Airborne helmet, beret, cap comforter, etc).
6) Webbing (37 pattern or a mixture of 37 and U.S, whatever gets the job done, with or without cross straps). Minimum should be a belt with a waterbottle.
You can mix and match any of the above with battldress jackets, leather jerkins, windproofs, duffle coats, despatch rider boots, "captured" kit, the list is endless and keeps us from looking like a "parade ground" unit.
Other items (Carried, in webbing or in pockets).
1) Personal weapon - Any period weapons, including "captured" ones are ok. With spare ammunition and batteries.
2) Notebook and pencil.
3) Whistle (for emergency signalling).
4) Any personal medication (carried in top right pocket).
5) Cork or cam cream.
6) Face veil.
7) Player bandage.
8- Sharp knife.
9) Bergen/rucksack/large pack containing...
Extra water (in addition to your belt kit waterbottle).
Food for 24 hours.
Extra socks (at least 2 pairs).
Jumper or BD jacket (something warm and woollen, basically).
Hexi burner or spirit/meths stove, with appropriate fuel.
Lighter/matches.
Spoon.
Mug.
Messtins/billy can.
Poncho/shelter half/small tarp.
Paracord/strong string (at least 10 metres).
Sleeping bag/blanket.
Cuddly toy.
Insect repellant.
Small first aid kit (sufficient for cuts, grazes, splinters and blisters).
Lightweight change of clothing (for sleeping in - work in wet gear, sleep in dry gear).
Wash kit.
Torch.
Gloves.
Bin bags (for rubbish. They also make good emergency "bivi" bags).
Ideally, kit should be placed inside seperate waterproof bags of some description.
If you follow the maxim of "live out of your bergen, fight off your belt kit", you can't go wrong.
Optional
i) Waterproofs (just in case!). Modern is fine, if it pours with rain, your own comfort comes first.
ii) Sleeping mat or camp bed.
iii) Compass (modern is fine).
This is by no means an exhaustive list. Feel free to add your own "creature comforts" if desired. It is perfectly possible to travel light, yet, still be comfortable "in the field".
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!
:good:
Of course, the cuddly toy would have to be "period".

Looks good to me. Gonna put Nav kit on there as well?
When we were a Kingdom it was run by a King
When we were an Empire it was run by an Empress
Now we're a country we're run by a..........
I've listed compasses as "optional". There should be enough for at least one per 4 man patrol (I have 3!). I'm also giving out the pace beads at the training day. Hopefully, that should be enough to cover it.
