>>911388Can you even be warm whilst out with a wool blanket? You pretty much need a fire to do that with a wool blanket as far as I'm concerned.
The average military wool blanket doesn't provide enough insulation, it's too felt like. I have Hudson Bay blankets that are vastly warmer than any military blanket from muh Italian office and Polish on down, no military blanket approaches it for warmth and I would still be cold outside whilst sleeping if the temperature dropped below the 40s and I didn't have a fire. And to warp yourself in one properly they need to be big, like queen size, much bigger than the average military single bed size which was designed for a cold barracks and not a forest.
I fucking love wool blankets but they belong on your bed. I really don't know how people did it back when they had to use them for sleeping outside, those people must either have not felt the cold or just spent their nights being cold.
