Yeah Goldie f*****g desert boots.We used to wear them on normal patrols,but wore black boots on pre-planned ops such as searchs and crc training(riot drill fyi).And cos the weatherwas so warm most of the lads bought magnums in the px's.God knows why we werent issued them if the UNMIL guys got them.
p.s;any of you lads use battle vests as opposed to chestrigs?Thought i saw a few pictures of lads wearing them. :tri:

Some guys bought their own vests, but you're honestly better off with PLCE.

To the two sgts (both 13bn cadre staff), who are going to Liberia next week best of luck guys and we look forward to having the both of you back some tine around july 2005, see you both then and dont give the others a hard time

How regular is the post and how long after its been posted do you's receive it?

The post is woeful: delivery times range from 7 days to never.

Been so long since I was in the army I have no Idea what kind of clothing they supply you with but try to bring Lowe alpine breathable clothing.Stay clear of cotton and the like it just retains sweat and wet and weighs twice as much.

drumpark you really must be out awhile.We get issued two sets of Lowe alpine dryflo underwear now.One for winter(long sleeves and long bottoms)and one for summer(shorts and t-shirt).Great in the heat and warm in the cold.About time the dept started issuing us decent gear!

well we may get uniforms but it would be nice for things not to fall apart like the boots which wore through but you already talked about them before

What was the scale of issue of the m203 in liberia? Did guys have it attached to their personal weapons or was it kept in stores?Also what was the first line ammo for it.Just curious.
