How to pack a Bergen

[@andrewjames7150]

Great video, Nick. From my experience; definitely a good move to keep the core meds (usually 2 paracetamol and 2 profen are essential for a strained/broken leg on your own and if you're lucky, some codeine, and obviously the mil med pack) in the top pocket and essentials such as warm emergency clothing in the sides. Main bit should contain the core kit. Everyone does it slightly differently but it's quite a strategic art how you pack your bergen. Personal survival is something a lot of people take for granted. The Bergen provides that.

Brilliant advice. Thank you.

I still think the old Alice pack takes some beating, the only bad point is it metal frame ,is not the most robust on Para drops. The SAS Bergen metal frame is good, never seen a broken one yet !

Hi nick could you give a breakdown of what you keep in front pouches, got jist of what’s in other pouches/main sack thx?

[@davidyack2526]

Do you have a link where I can get some of those dry bags that you have?

[@rickybinks2305]

Great video. What website do you recommend for a military bag??

[@leelo1972]

[@jonathantattersdill1572]

What day sack is that looks like a short back but I can’t quite tell

[@Nofixedabode859]

It’s a short back Bergen m8 with modded front pouches

[@wordisbond007]

What kind of drybag? I can’t make out what you say, speaking too fast?

[@Nofixedabode859]

Hi m8 they and forces use the ortlieb 79 or 109L heavy duty black canoe bags for sleep bag and bivi bag in Bergen, I use 79 L and plenty big enough and if you need smaller ones for other pockets buy cheaper lightweight ones is all you need

[@wordisbond007]
