[29 / 4 / ?]
So I'm in the Army, and I have a lot of Field Training Exercises and a mostly tent-based deployment coming up. Currently with a Combat Support Hospital, so the standards are pretty relaxed. I was hoping that I could get some suggestions for things to bring on a FTX from the people on here.
Specifically I am looking for two things: A collapsible folding chair, and a hammock.
The folding chair, I would prefer to be as collapsible as possible, and have a back to it (Like the picture, but without the stupid shit.) I am hoping for a good brand or link to one that isn't crazy expensive, but gives me a comfortable place to sit on guard duty. It has to fit in a Tough Box, so the smaller the better.
As for the hammock, I had an old Platoon Sergeant who used to set one up while we slept innawoods. I thought that shit was brilliant, and now I want to try it. Never used a hammock before, so I could use some recommendations for proper use and what to actually buy.
tl;dr Military FTX luxuries thread go
