more coming in the ground pounder series

We weren’t allowed to use sleeping bags or m-65’s unless there was snow on the ground. Two poncho liners and two ponchos covered most of our needs. Long range recon. Travel fast, travel light, freeze at night. Lol

[@blackoracle69]

thank you for your service

[@rickstackhouse9944]

We were never given a poncho liner, just a poncho and we carried the mountain bag but only slept in it during basic training. We was out in the dead of winter and humped for 24 hrs until we stopped. Set up perimeter and everyone was told to get some sleep. I dropped down against a tree with my ruck still on and draped my poncho completely over me because, it was sleeting and dozed off. From all my moisture under the poncho when I stood up my poncho was frozen and was stiff as in frozen stiff and when I tried to fold it well it snapped off in sections. I was lucky the mission was over and we were heading back to the rear. Otherwise I would have nothing to keep me dry in the bad weather.

Videos like this are an invaluable commodity to a guy like me who's trying to learn. I really appreciate you my brother outstanding video as always

[@blackoracle69]

I appreciate that

[@darrellclark8112]

I have a whoopie and also a cheap Walmart sleeping bag rated for 50 degrees came with a bag that gets it down to the size of a football. Summer time in Georgia it's more than enough

[@blackoracle69]

sounds right

[@guymurphy6982]

For several years my choice for the heat of July/August night time cover when hammock sleeping has been the outer 2 panels from 2 or 3 gores of a surplus cargo parachute. Super lightweight and folds down to almost nothing. A single layer usually starts me off at night, then as it cools I pull a second layer over me, basically folding it in half. It's quite a bit warmer than it looks with multiple layers. If you've got a few buddies to share the chute with cost isn't to bad and there's a lot of fabric for several projects.

[@blackoracle69]

sounds good

[@calummcneil6006]

Great reviews& videos. I like the G.I. surplus good gear. I use it a lot in Scotland. Calum MacNeil.

[@blackoracle69]

thanks

[@Edward2092009]

GREAT video as usual

[@glennfyfe1357]

Always prepared, thanks to you.

[@smoothvern165]

Great advice! And it’s spot-on!!👍👍

[@kirneyc.thibodeaux649]

Enjoyed the video. Great job. Thanks.........Charles

[@jem6205]

Good vid. This time of year up in the midwest a good wool blanket is all that I need. The only rule for me is dress for your day/night and sleepwear stays home. If you cant sleep sittin down with what you have on, then you have something more to do. Also, taking layers off while working is fine as long as you put them back on during rest.

[@blackoracle69]

very true dress for the need

[@jenniferbauman4802]

Good video. God bless. From Glenn CATT in Massachusetts.

[@MichaelR58]

Blackie , good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !

[@blackoracle69]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@kaitsamari]

Hey Blackie!!! We got a boatload of nurses up here in Kotzebue Alaska from all over Alabama!!! My house is in Hurtsboro. Just wanted to say hi! We love your show brother!!!

[@blackoracle69]

awesome thanks for saying hello

[@hiramhaji7813]

Great video

[@blackoracle69]

thank you

[@kennethwilson8633]

Great videos might try a cheap fleece sleeping bag liner for the summer lightweight and drys quickly. Have fun stay safe.

[@blackoracle69]

Thanks 👍

[@TerryC69]

Hi Blackie! Somehow I missed this one when it came out. I am sold on the components that go into making the ranger roll. Being able to add or take away parts, based upon environment, makes it a really winner for most folks in North America. Not to mention the budget friendly aspect. One home run after another with the content, Blackie. Many Thanks!

[@jeffrichards5106]

Hi Blackie, great video. Up here in northern Michigan it can be kind of unpredictable. My first trip to the U.P. many years ago with some buddies, we went camping the 3rd week of June and it was snowing! I think I would feel safer here in the summer with the patrol bag and the woobie to put inside the patrol bag if needed.👍⛺

[@blackoracle69]

Thanks for sharing!

[@brianvannorman1465]

Good advice.

[@blackoracle69]

Thanks for watching!

[@josephdixon1827]

I use a combination of the Rain Poncho sandwiched to a Poncho Liner / Whoobie and a modern waterproof Military surplus Bivvy bag. I live in Florida, and along the Gulf Coast in summer sometimes the night temperatures go into the mid 60s ( depending upon location ) although day time highs in summer are in the low to mid 90s. There is a kind of huge fluctuation during the summer, again depending on weather and location. Its great not having to carry a huge sleeping bag. Keep your vids going, I"am enjoying them. As for your B.P Cap & Ball revolvers, I cannot wait to see them, I prefer the Army Remington in Cap & Ball. That compression water proof bag, once you get it compressed and all the air out of it, throw some 100 MPH tape / duck tape over that valve hole, it will prevent that sack from refilling itself with air. Later.

[@Skellanuts]

I live in upstate NY. Middle of July is 60 degrees give or take at night. I’ve seen lately though that the weather around here changes like crazy and unpredictable. Sometimes it’s 80 at night, other times it’s almost below 50 at night. Winters in January are unpredictable too these days. It can range from 35 degrees at night to -10 give or take. It used to be colder before I noticed how unpredictable it became since like.. 2012? Almost? Idk these days whenever I go out on overnights I watch the weather channel the same day I sleep outdoors, and just Incase I keep a full sleep system in the trunk just Incase so atleast it’s in range of my camp spot. Other times if I take a full weeks camping trip I take multiple layers which is good Incase of the weather, BUT it sucks as far as weight. Idk these days I take shorter trips just because of this issue.

[@jamesparker6383]

always enjoy watching your videos , but I have a question, wouldn't the sleeping bag cover and the woobie combined provide the warmth you may need in temps around the 50s F.

[@blackoracle69]

Yes it will

[@michaelsorenson3887]

You should test it for your self and see if it's doable for you. There's a difference between comfort and survival, so it just depends on where on the spectrum you are or plan to be.

[@robslagle]

I've thought about getting 3 yards of fleece and 3 yards of cotton and making a top quilt out of that for summer.

[@hammerhound168]

Going to be a bit heavy and hold water. A poncho liner down to the mid 60 f or 2 if its in the 50 F, a old wool blanket and a poncho liner is good too if you do not mind the weight.

[@blackoracle69]

nice

[@Atkrdu]

Blackie, did you ever try a Snugpack Patrol Poncho Liner with snaps? There’s this guy on KZbin who made it so it could be a sleeping bag or a coat.

[@blackoracle69]

i have not sounds cool

[@Nebula_Bass]

My ideal hiking and camping seasons are spring fall and even winter , what exactly do you do in the south in the summer in the woods With the high heat and humidity and bugs and poison oak Just wondering

[@blackoracle69]
