BWAHAHAHAHA... PRC-77 & mag batteries.... with Vietnam era flak jacket (ceramic plates, no kevlar), steel pot & M14 on a 15 mile hump....

Some things you never forget.... including your MOS....

I've been out 26 years and I can tell you every MOS I've held, where I was stationed at and who my drill instructors in boot camp were....
