    1. PONCHO LINERS.
    Didn’t see any mention of this item yet.
    Basic military issue “cho liner”.
    Superb-light weight all purpose blanket (woobie).
    USMC type with zipper is best-turns into sleeping bag.
    2. CLOTHES DRIER LINT.
    Best tinder-fire starter ever.
    Keep in old medicine bottle with some vaseline impregnation.
    3. PARAFFIN CANDLES.
    For light and warmth.
    4. WATER PURIFICATION TABLETS & canteen.

    you will last:
    3 hrs without clothing and shelter
    3 days without water
    3 weeks without food
    3 months without love

    ……..more or less………

    Times when you don't need the gear, you carry them. Times when you need the gear, you don't carry it. I now carry most essential gear (jumper cables, small socket set, and a base stand for the stock jack). Mounted on the molle panels, I have pouches of which I carry small amount of tools and a small fire extinguisher. However, I do load up when I go on trails.

    If you forget your jumper cables, molle panels or a tool you can eventually find help. If your or someone else’s truck catches fire without a good extinguisher the party is over……
