S.O. Tech Wins TacAds Award

Posted: 17 Sep 2010 01:00 PM PDT

Of course, there’s no such thing as the TacAds Award (tactical advertisements)…but if there were, S.O. Tech would have it locked up with this little number.

My good friends at BreachBangClear posted the following YouTube commercial on their Facebook page, and I just had to share it with Kit Up! readers as a lead in to the weekend.

Enjoy!

Army Throws its Gear Gurus Into the Dirt

Posted: 17 Sep 2010 07:35 AM PDT

Early this summer, the Army sent some of its gear engineers into the field at Fort Polk’s steamy forests.

The so-called “grounding” is a program offered to Army civilian employees to get familiar with the “boots on the ground” they’re supporting from behind a desk or lab table. Three engineers from the Army’s PEO for Soldier Equipment and clothing headed into the field with a bunch of harder than woodpecker lips NCOs for three days during their NCO academy training.

"It gave them an opportunity to be with the Soldiers, seeing what Soldiers do 24-7," said Tom Theaux, JRTC Science Advisor. They also saw first-hand the gear the Soldiers operate with: The engineers were issued uniforms, rain jackets and pants, assault packs, and sleeping bags. They brought their own boots, sun and/or patrol caps, socks, protective eyewear, gloves, and hydration systems. All the equipment provided to them was Army-issue, and in some cases, they used test versions of products undergoing improvements, such as the Fire-Resistant ACU trouser and the medium ruck, offering them a chance to be on the receiving end of their own efforts back at PEO Soldier.

Call it a CONUS mini-embed…

The ten-pound brains got an earful on female ACU sizing, that damned Velcro all over the ACU and the stinky, ripped mess those combat shirts can become after just a few patrols. The engineers were gratified that those complaints were already being addressed (except the Velcro issue)…

SFC Vernon J. Alcorn, Senior Small Group Leader at JRTC, thought the "grounding" experience had benefits for the Soldiers, as well as the three participants from PEO Soldier. Alcorn called it "a great opportunity to link the Soldier with the individual who puts items on their backs and systems in their hands. This is a unique experience for these Soldiers to understand the process that takes place when the Army is developing new items for them to use," he said. "It also gives the Soldiers time to show somebody what we do on a day-to-day basis that wouldn't necessarily know otherwise."

Good for them…now, can you make some updates to the MREs already?
