I own 5 myself
Actually, brief moment of seriousness: Would it be possible to get half length hip pads, about an inch wide, for those whose job involves carrying irregular, heavy objects (IE HMG, mortars etc) on their shoulders while wearing PLCE, to attach to the yoke straps?

Originally posted by BarryI'm not, I'm just wondering in general. My mind was cast back to that picture of PDF lads doing an ex with the HMG, with bits of kip mat secured to their CEFO yoke with silver duck tape
All ya really want is something that will just take the pressure off ya for a while. I mean just lift that thing is enough for twoLifes a bitch, so be her pimp!

a good hip pad and a nice tight bungy cord and you're webbing is sorted!
hip pads are well worth the cash! in a kind of "you dont notice it there, but you do notice your hips not being battered by waterbottle" kind of way!An army is power. Its entire purpose is to coerce others. This power can not be used carelessly or recklessly. This power can do great harm. We have seen more suffering than any man should ever see, and if there is going to be an end to it, it must be an end that justifies the cost. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain
