As far as other kit, I've never understood why people would want to carry all sorts of extra gear. If anything I'm going to buy the farm because I leave something behind because I dont want to carry it. The sterile ACUs thing I defintely get though for many reasons, the aforementioned protective measure, as well as the elimination of rank as a concern when working with centers of gravity.
I'm pretty set on the mellow part, and I'm quite comfortable with Arab customs, although I'm sure Iraqi customs are a bit different than Levantine ones. How do you guys handle being offered food and drink over there? do you just swig pepto all day and hope for the best?
