Then you add a 60 mm mortar round to that heavy ruck, add 20 more mags of 5.56, add a claymore, add an extra battery for the radio, add a bandoleer of 100-200 rounds of 7.62 around their neck, add a LAW per rifleman and CO , plus rations and water and no poncho-that is the INFANTRY. Then to wake them up you give them a brown bomber to unload the constipation just like all of us.. And that is not even a claymore, nor food, nor personal items which had best be none, much less first aid, bug juice etc. We did not carry toothpaste or soap in the INFANTRY. You will smell RIPE.
