Phil is on the money about what gets in your rig. Anything you pull out of a pouch on a tac vest or a chest rig MUST be for killing. No cam stick, foot powder, socks. Put all that crap in a small pack, including the rainjacket.. Don't put it in your pockets either, it will only chafe through your entire sweaty day. You need a place specifically for empty mags ie. a dump pouch. Never put an empty mag back in a mag pouch. Doesn't matter how smart you are about your reloads. If there is an empty in there, you will grab it in an emergency. AMMO, frags, smoke, m203, water. Strap an m72 to the side of the camelcack motherlode. Don't leave KAF without it. That's it.
