Has anyone any pictures of the Issued Medics Chest Rig/ Battlevest ?? By the looks of it theres a large medic pouch in place of the mag pouchs on the right hand side is that correct? I heard there was a modified chest rig for Aer Corps Ops and another for Medics, Has anyone any good pics of them? Only ones iv seen are from a recent camp and arent that clear!!

Like hell! He fought because he had to fight;
He died that's all. It was his unlucky night.

So you would think, Some CQs break out in a sweat at the thought of issuing such items! What am I saying the RDF cannot operate in anything other than warm weather why would we want wetgear??Last edited by Celtic-Warrior; 10 July 2012, 10:32.Train Hard Fight Easy!!!!

Who grinned at life in empty joy,
Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
And whistled early with the lark.
In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
He put a bullet through his brain.
And no one spoke of him again.
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
Sneak home and pray you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.

Here is a pic.Sorry it took so long
"Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.
