The nice UPS man just left, and all I can say is WOW! This thing is beautiful!

The attention to detail is incredible (and only what I expected after seeing the quality of their gaiters)! A co-worker came in while I was petting it, looked at me and left, so I'm expecting the guys in the white jackets any time...
I ordered a combo, including the mess kit (done by Dixie Tinworks, and also fantastic quality). The mess tin came a couple weeks ago and is at home, but I don't doubt that the straps will hold it perfectly. And I had no clue that they made Ziploc bags this big, but it came very well packed in one in the box.
I haven't figured out how to post photos to the board yet, but if you would like me to email them to you, drop me an email to
calum1861@verizon.net. I can forward the original advertising photos they sent me or this weekend I'll have to kit up and having my wife take some photos of me. Is it campaign season yet? Paul also included some completed photos that may be different than the advertising photos.
