Little attempt at payback for the loss yesterday?

I just got off the phone with "the guy with the necklace" to say I was in town and ask just what he has on the necklace. He said its just a couple lighters, chapstick, led light, whistle, and a flint.

When I was stationed in Alaska I used to where a similar necklace with a P38 can opener, LED light, flint & hacksaw blade striker, whistle, lighter, and Spyderco Ladybug. And then I wiped out while skiing and landed HARD on my chest. It looked like someone had bitch-slapped me in the chest with a Tonka truck and hurt about the same! I still carry most of those items... just not around my neck.

Diddo here on the listed items.

I started out in AK then 10th. My Necklace has always had Lighter, Chapstick, a Spyderco Mini and now a Mini red Lite. The body heat keep everything nice and workale in zero Temps. So I'll keep them on all Patrols.
