How to layer military equipment - 3 Lines Principle (with Ukrainian subtitles) 

*Meanwhile in reality...* Combat uniform, AT (M72) or 40mm and AT, main weapon (G3), small child like backpack with a trash bag inside, towel at the bottom (to wipe and as a security to prevent food getting wet from the bottom if there is a leak), food for 3 days (1x MRE 1xShort Canned Meat), thick wool sweater (aka sleeping "bag" and top wet security) and even more ammo on the top. The rest (mittens with a trigger finger, extra pair of thick wool socks, headover, thick wool beanie, weapon cleaning tools (goes into the back end pocket of the jacket), first aid, shovel, optional large Sami knife, combat west with ammo and camel back(water source) and most importantly a toothbrush, toothpaste and a single spoon in a small metal box) is on your combat uniform, as well as a helmet. BUT THAT IS IT! *Sleeping:* Take out and put on thick wool sweater. Then put on your combat uniform without the west. Open the zipper and put you mittens at your chest area and zip it up again. Now pull your headover over your ears and put your beanie on top. Set your weapon(s) next to you with your combat west and helmet. Pull your arms into your jacket and lay down in a fetal position on a dry surface (dry as in, most likely dry when you wake up as well. Forest are really damp during the mornings unless its winter) and then you sleep. Just make sure you pay attention to your feet and that they are not wet and such. Because with little protection outside the thick layer of leather and your ultra long and thick wool socks. There is a serious chance of frostbite if they wet or similar. Now wonder why your backup socks are on your uniform rather than your back pack... *Winter warfare:* Thin white over uniform type garment that is worn over your pants and under the combat west that only serves as camuflation. An addition here is that you actually attach a bulky sleeping bag under your combat pack if needed. If you only have access to over footwear bags or similar. I would say dont bother because they are bulky and dont work at night (air inside gets cold because you are stationary), but if you have bought or traded for real US military "bunny \ mickey mouse" type boots I would argue wearing those. With the latter you almost dont even need to worry about wet feet while sleeping. That is how good they are. During the summer they will drain you of energy though and prolonged wet and hot feet can cause other issues as well. *What you dont do at a large military field training area:* You dont use local water sources. While the classic lead poisoning is historical, there are a ton of other stuff modern day military are using that can cause or up to now have unknown impacts on the human body. Simplistic filters might not work well enough so why risk it. You dont cut down trees or anything of such that is still alive. You dont\do dig fox holes. You do some times dig fox holes, but these you have to cover again (sand first, then dirt) and you can only dig them in given areas, usually sub sandy areas. Yes, 10cm under the ground there is just "beach" sand in some areas. You dont light fires while on combat patrols. So bringing all these fancy metals or rocks to light one is pointless. No, you dont light cigarettes ether. Those that need nicotine use snus instead. Point is, you dont need all the "Wallmart" stuff, nor do you get it with your kit if you join the military. The rest you get for your main back pack is mostly just backup stuff like gas mask, tent equipment, backup clothes like "military regulated underwear" or stuff you dont use in the field like work uniform etc. Sleeping tents and such are usually squad level equipment ether carried by the squad with the main pack or mounted on vehicles.

Me: So, whats in the jacket? Ripperkon: More Jackets

I do not know how I ended up here, but it were fascinating 30 minutes of tactical striptease.

My game character explaining how he fits so many items in his inventory.

Ripperkon: "My English isn't that good." * Makes a 30 minute video in English describing ALL of the things. *

"In zis poket, I have, a Panzer IV. Wery yoosful for fighting ze enemy"

I've never seen anyone so loaded and organized at the same time - great job, your English is good.

Your English is way better than my German. Keep doin what you do brother

I have a friend who served in SF and he said everyone always has at least 2 extra pairs of socks. They every so often stop/asses/and change their socks. Lol it’s vital to keep mobility.

Tarkov player: "Have you seen this?" Pulls out a backpack out of his backpack, in that backpack sits another backpack and two guns and in that backpack sits another backpack and some food. "Now, here is where we store our stuff, maximizing our profit you know. If you put a chest rig in the last backpack, we are able to even carry more junk."

when i was in the U.S. Marines we called it tiers. 1st tier was what was in your pockets, on your person. 2nd tier was our deuce gear or war gear. our battle rattle. 3rd tier was our pack. the assault pack or buttpack would fit in tier 2. whatever you call it, its good stuff.

Dude, don't even be concerned about your english. It's very good. Anyway, I really enjoyed your video. Keep it up 👍

Thank you for all that views, comments and especially the feedback. I added a kit list to the description and uploaded a video with additional information about IFAK, First Aid and Survial Kit. Make sure to subscribe, if you want to see more of this. If you don't like it, feel free to write helpfull critic. No need for silly hate here.

We need more Euro tacticians on youtube.

Terrifyingly badass military man in full gear appears in front of you from seemingly nowhere. A true monolith with a g36 towering in front of you. Him: Hey guys :)

*spends 33 minutes doing video* *spends 2 hours putting everything back just right*

One hour later, I'm in one of the coolest youtube rabbit holes I've ever found. Awesome channel!

Interesting video. I was in the American Army as a heavy mortar crewman. It was just too heavy to carry. Reconnaissance groups can carry all their stuff. I have a similar liquid gas stove. It is a multi fuel stove, M-1950 Squad Stove. I tried rubbing alcohol, whiskey & vodka, gasoline, petroleum solvents (Stoddard Solvent in the USA) and paint thinner. The gasoline was not so good. I had to completely disassemble the stove to clean out the carbon residue after each use. Plus, gasoline was mixed with "Tetraethyllead" decades ago. So you had to burn gasoline outside. Whiskey and vodka is diluted with water so it doesn't work very good. Rubbing alcohol worked but it did not make as much heat. Pure alcohol burned with a blue flame, it is almost invisible during daylight so be careful. All other combustable liquids worked very well. The best thing about liquid stoves is they work everywhere, all temperatures. Your English is much better than my German. Your doing great. There is a difference between American English and UK English. I say you are speaking more American English. These are some of the words that were difficult. The medical splint you demonstrated is called a "Sam Splint" in the US. This is the flexible, flat board you demonstrated on your right arm. Used to stabilize broken bones. The two types of fire starters are called Ferrocerium Rod and the second was a Flint & Steel. Google translated this: "Ferroceriumstange" and "Feuerstein und Stahl." This may not be a good translation. Most dictionaries don't have the technical words very often.

Half-way through the video i'm like "Good luck getting all that back in."

10 years ago I started watching this channel and still do haha. Those old ghillie videos were really great for an 11 year old kid building his own ghillies

First time I've seen a video explaining a complete list of gear. Video wasn't too long. You needed that much time to show your complete rig. Thank You

Very good reference source. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Militiamen across the USA 🇺🇸 can greatly benefit from this as a source of supplemental information for what to carry on a 1-3 day deployment or bug out. 🙏🏻

I started to get anxious as you laid everything on the floor and imagining the trouble of putting everything back on! Thanks for the video!

Your English is very good, clear and easy to understand. thanks for the video

Thank you for the detailed breakdown of the three lines Ripperkon. This video helped me familiarize with the layout and have more of an understanding if what I may need in a survival if not combat scenario. I know different environments and situations may alter some of the gear, but having a point of reference is very helpful. Thank you. 😁👍🏻

My brother, first off, your English…….IS OUTSTANDING!!! Second, your video is exceptional and an excellent guide for preparedness. It served to reinforce a lot of my views to gear layout and requirements. The video also gave me some interesting ideas to apply. Thanks!

To distinguish from IFAKs I have heard Americans call minor First Aid kits "boo-boo kits", boo-boo being a child's term for a minor scrape, cut, or bruise. A boo-boo kit would often have adhesive bandages, small gauze patches, medical tape, and antiseptic gel or liquid. The kind of stuff you would find in the kinds of home first aid kits sold at grocery stores.

THIS MAN KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING! THANK YOU BROTHER FOR THE REAL END USER DATA!! FROM THE PRAETORIAN GUARD FROM THE HEART OF THE 49TH STATE

Very jealous of your dense woodland and well-coordinated gear! Good run-down and your english is better than many native-speakers.

In my opinion, RU-vid is, first and foremost, exist for people like you, bro Your English is sound very good, pronunciation and vocabulary is very well too plz make a more stuff

Very thorough! Great work!

I’m not in the military, I just play games. How this got in my recommended I will forever be grateful to the algorithm.

When you get my age, spare underwear are a must!!! Great vid sir

Thanks for including the notes. I wish more presenters did that.

1st line is not because you throw away your 2nd line. Its because you always wear your first line, even in your sleeping bag. When you want to streamline your kit, when you come back from an OP/EX: Put everything to the right you used, put everything to the left you didn't. When something end up on the left over and over rethink why you bring it. There are a lot of ounces in there that become pounds together. Good you have a light-weight lamp but if you bring 3 it defeats the purpose.

I was in the American army , but basic didn't didn't teach us how to pack or lbe . I'm glad you are .

Thanks very much. I appreciate the ideas and your time. In my experiences from the 1970s, I would have added a hollow-handled diving knife with serated blade and a poncho which goes over everything including the backpack and weapons and doubles as a groundsheet.

Just found this video. Liked & subscribed. While keyboard warriors & wanna be militia types are eating Twinkies & talking about being prepared - this guy is actually preparing & learning what works & doesn't work by physically trying it out in the field. Much respect, keep it up. You're English is great! My German sucks. Lol.

Interesting video. The concept is pretty much everywhere. Ours were 4 lines. Line one: uniform Line two: battlevest and rifle. Line three: small backpack Line four: big backpack or big bag. We had packing lists for all lines.

You're English is good! Thanks for making an English vid for us!

”god my English sucks”. Says the guy who is at least bilingual, while most native English speakers I know can barely speak English correctly. Great video, very informative.

thank you for ukrainian subtitles bro. very much appreciated!

Excellent video, very informative. The words you were were looking for are "splint" (to fix a broken bone in place) and "flint and steel" (to create sparks for starting fires). :)

Your English is fine! Don't stress it, you did great. Thank you for the time and consideration to put this together in English.

Great video! Thank you for doing this in English. Very much Appreciated.

Im stationed in Germany. I appreciate it brother!

Your English is very good, the fact that you are at the very minimum bi-lingual (German and English) is amazing. You just earned yourself a new sub!

You're English is excellent. Very informative video, thanks.

As a Russian Jew, I have to say that watching military gear being presented in zis aksent was a bit unsettling at first, but I got over it. Danke und guten nacht!

Interesting assortment. Your bad English is far better than my Very limited German. Thanks for the video.

when someone asks why I am interested in the military and want to join it's not because I want hollywood like action, it's because I want to go to the mountains, forests, deserts and carry out my missions. I would love a recon mission as much as any other. it does not matter even if I don't get a kill in my entire life or never faced direct combat. I would be happy to travel through these terrains with my mates

Fantastic! I learned a lot! In the past, I stored a bunch of beef jerky and cranberries in my tactical fanny pack (the most appropriate thing we called it). And that was my food! I soon found out that it was not enough! The tarp is the most important thing! This is important for POGs like me. I was supporting an infantry unit going up Mt Fuji in January, and I assumed that the location we set down our main packs was the area we were going to sleep...I only packed a waffle-top. That ground was the coldest thing I have ever experienced. I could feel my soul leaving my body through the ground. My only point of pride is that I didn’t hype out. But lesson learned! Your video was awesome! I hope no one has to learn from my mistakes, but still...

Good video, good tips on organizing the pack. In Vietnam we carried a lot of stuff but not that much. Staying dry? Nope, never.

Very nice. Great English by the way. I keep a go bag in my truck. I call it my war bag, now I know why. I have everything in it that you peeled off with the exception of my chest rig is in the closet. I picked up a couple of very good pointers from you. Thank you very much.

me describing what i brought for the 2 hour school trip through the woods

Your english is very good, even much better than many native English speakers.

1- Pockets 2- Pouches 3- Pack

Great tips, and you speak better English than most people on my side of the pond haha. Thank you sir, hope you're doing well and staying safe!

I swear I could smell wet moss when I watched your video.

sehr ausführliche Dokumentation danke für das Teilen und die Arbeit die Sie damit hatten.....sehr gute Location im Hintergrund ausgewählt.

We used to have back in the 1970s Marching order: large pack that Carrie's spare boots clothing Moving order: Small pack w/2 days rations 2 days ammo spare poncho and wool blankets Fighting order: webbing w/canteen, mess tins poncho IFAK, one day ration,one day ammo and personal equipment (compass map,bonus,

I wouldn't like being the person who has to sort all this when the video over. Great video.

I play a few 'escape from tarkov' videos about how to rapidly Tetris gear into my bags and I get suggested your videos... Good vid by the way.

Great video AND you speak better English than most people that live in the United States. You should be proud!

Damn! I can't skip the tutorial stage. Nice graphics though 10/10

"god, my English sucks." Your English is better than my German. You did a great job brother.

You’re English is amazing dude, don’t hate on yourself haha

Line 0 , the battle is over and you strip off for a skinny dip to celebrate! Good video!

Thanks, you've had lots of interesting ideas for the gear setup. I'll share it to my reservist unit.

Very cool that you have Ukrainian subtitles.

Imagine walking through the woods with your dog and running into this guy

Something new to try. You can make a little snack from the sugar and coffee creamer package in your MRE food pouch, Einmannpackung. We called it Ranger Cookies back when I was in the US Army. Make a cooking package from aluminum foil. Use about 10cm x 2cm strip of aluminum foil. Fold the aluminum foil in half to make a 5cm x 2cm package. Fold the edges to seal the cooking package. Put the sugar and coffee creamer in the package and mix thoughly. Fold the package closed to seal. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes. The sugar and coffee creamer will melt together. It will harden as it cools. You may need to experiment to learn just how much time to cook it so the Ranger Cookies won't get burned. Try to make a light brown, Carmel color, (Karamellfarbe). Burned sugar is not good to eat. Makes a toffee like candy to enjoy with your coffee. Sort of like a biscotti for your coffee.

This was awesome. Perfect English.

An excellect presentation with extremely relavent information. I didn't find your communication an issue at all. Thank you!

"Oh my God, my English sucks." It's a million times better than my German, my friend lol 👍 I got the jist of it.

I really like the focus on everything we need to see and the blurry landscape. A good solution to stay visible. xDD 26:35 Magiccc

I'll give to him his English is really good

Yes excellent English. I was watching a video of two Young guys, i think they were Danish going to visit a WW2 German Cemetery and they spoke so well I would have thought they were born snd raised in The USA. One of My best friends and I went with His Grandmother to see The Green Berets when it first came out . When we left the theatre He said “ I want to be a Green Beret” His Grandmother Replied “ Steve You have to know six languages and You cant even speak English” . The song and Video Niemals by Martins Army reminds Me of how We became friends. One of My Stepsons is a career Special Forces “ Doc” . I believe The Military is a motivating learning environment with the best schools.

stop apologizing my friend your English is excellent

That was excellent seeing all the basic fundamentals. Thanks for going through all the basics. I really appreciate the visual of all that. Thank you for doing that.

He sounds so tired with all that gear, he also looks like hes about to head into tarkov, dorms specifically

The whole video standing in the woods geared up like that just looks bad ass and we all know that's what's important!!

Dude is highspeed,subbed.

Your English is great! Amazing video. Thank you

This reminds me of a scene from Platoon where Elyass unloads Chris' pack and tells him to talk to him before heading out on patrol next time.

That daypack into the backpack idea is so genius.

even just listening I get it alot. basically in that bag is equivalent to my living condition

Your English is great partner! Great video. I was in a LRRP unit in the 90's. We followed the same line gear methods. Cheers!

Im here because I play Escape from Tarkov.

I was taking notes good stuff man good english too, with nuances but I followed you easily enough. Subscribed

Your English is excellent, no worries there. Solid video. A great explanation of the layering system.

I really like the long form kit break downs and the full OD green load out looks awesome. Im surprised you didnt include a knife of any description easy to hand ( I assume there is one in your survival tin). personally I would have a fixed knife on my Second line and a Multi tool on my first line. Also out of interest as you did this video from a military perspective but did not mention armour. I assume you would class that as your second line gear? Cheers Also thanks for making the video in english!

Good stuff bro love and respect from America

Everyone here revising for when they get drafted XD.

Your English is excellent. Thank you for a great video. 😊

Top !!! Würde mich mehr für "Reconmissionsachen" interessieren ;)

This is a very well made tutorial on how to pack stuff for your takorov character

Ripperkon: walks towards camera, stops recording, turns around, thinks "crap, now I have to pack up all that stuff again" :-D How much does all this stuff weigh?

Well done! Your English is better than most of our "American". You did fine.
