>>2499270>Some of us are in the military and actually have a use for molle shit instead of effay larp. The military doesn't issue useful pouches, only the platform.Last I checked, the military issued MREs with chemical heaters for use in the field, even for long-range patrol (those rations are specifically called LRPs, I believe).
Which means that if you need a MOLLE-compatible Reddit cozy for your premium MSR Windburner, you're using your GI ruck on your own free time. Makes sense if you /out/, I guess, but I'm willing to bet you're not a snake-eater.
Anyway, I was also in the military--but it was the USAF, and I wasn't a ground controller, so my period of service (2001-2007) doesn't count for field/survival purposes. The only tent I had to stay in (at Diego Garcia during Operation Iraqi Freedom) had air conditioning and we ordered a TV, game consoles, and computers to set up an entertainment suite in the "foyer" of the tent via APO.
But I'm still less gay than you, because I can run a canister fuel stove in the dead of winter without a premium Redditor cozy.
