    While on the subject of ex-mil/surplus equipment who uses it?
    There use to be quite a bit of the German jackets out there. I have an army poncho which I have never used and a gore-tex bivy bag in camo which I have never used.
    I get by quite well with my Stoney Creek/Hunters Element/Macpac/Crapmandu gear

    I've a German army parka that I bought from a surplus store in Berlin in 2002, it was located a few metres down the road from Checkpoint Charlie. It's good and warm but it's never been cold enough in Auckland for me to wear it. I really miss my Royal Navy great coat which was stolen in S.A. Warm as.

    Used to have a couple of those German army sleeping bags - the ones with the arms and stuff, not sure what happened to those...

    I use British Gortex rain wear and German boots. Good quality gear. The boots were a mixture of Lowa, Haix, Meindl. Full leather and someone else got the pleasure of breaking them in for me and keeping them polished. The rain gear I don't think was used.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
