Equipment
All of of
the members are asked to have their own (personal) equipment.
This includes all of the gear to make up the standing gear
(uniform, weapons, belts, etc.) and that is covered under the
"Uniforms" section of this site.
Beyond the standing gear, many individuals choose to have other equipment as well. This is commonly a tent, seating and sleeping gear, cooking utensils, chests, etc. This is not mandatory, but is recommended, especially for camping over.
Some of the men have equipment to share for all to use. This includes flies (for shade), seating, hidden ice chest (cold storage), etc., and sometimes a spare tent.
The unit currently has "unit owned" equipment. The biggest item is our 4-inch mortar and mortar service equipment. The mast and enlisted fly was donated by one of the members. We have a limited amount of extra belts, etc., donated by members who have upgraded their own gear.
