Re: Intro MAO12A

Ranger ZoneIV...I agree with what you are saying. With my civilian background, Logistics might be a place where I can make up ground for lost time. We will see what opens up as I progress.

Assault Pack recomendations...

I am in need of a new assault pack. The issue one is fine, but doesn't really hold enough. I purchased a Camelbak BFM about 4 years ago, which has great organization, but I have trouble packing it out for a couple days in the field/range days etc. The problem is all of the organizational functions s...
