In the dumpster behind the supply depot, there were several Mountain Cold sleeping bags (we were turning in the MCs for Summer Weight bags, since we were headed into the fall season ...). Some were truly unserviceable, there were a lot with minor stains or rips in them. Mine was in pristine condition, and I had no desire to let go of it. I had one of my buds hold my place in line, I ran my MC bag back to my wall locker, and ran back to the turn-in line. I grabbed a barely-stained MC bag out of the dumpster and turned it in. I still use the MC bag when I go camping.<br /><br />Oddly enough, I don't feel guilty about it.caryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122159049927843800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2754166549564408982.post-79745709236510043322011-05-21T12:52:58.447-04:002011-05-21T12:52:58.447-04:00I miss it like crazy...

Instead, it's laying on the floor in the corner of his office. I hope to be working for the Vet Center soon myself and decorate my space with deuce gear - looking good!Erichttp://iaoptsdblog.infonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2754166549564408982.post-87380106346006608352011-05-21T10:21:50.625-04:002011-05-21T10:21:50.625-04:00Anon: I just looked at my IMR and none of the NSNs...Anon: I just looked at my IMR and none of the NSNs contain 782...Maybe back in the day they did.Just Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08750966513198534462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2754166549564408982.post-78755034279415499952011-05-21T08:29:50.652-04:002011-05-21T08:29:50.652-04:00The middle numbers of the NSN of all that gear is ...The middle numbers of the NSN of all that gear is 782.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
