I was contemplating not retiring. This meant Afghanistan... Looking at the Afghan war footage here on KZbin, this meant a lot of walking. Up and down mountains. I'm 41. Arthritis. Out of shape. I needed to train. But the MOLLE II rucksack... sucks. It doesn't work with IBAS (Google it) because of the back plate. You can't adjusted it to the wearer, especially the hip belt. This means all the weight is on your shoulders. You already have 30lbs on your shoulders with IBAS and ammo. Can't cinch that to your hips either and with my back problems that means trouble. So I looked around the services and BAM! The ILBE. Marines call it "ill-bee". It's heavy. At 8.4 lbs, you add a 3L Camelbak and you got 15lbs before you load it with anything. It comes with a detachable assault back, a light, tough pack with more room than it looks. I never leave home without it. Arc'teryx L.E.A,F. calls it the "Charlie Pack". The ILBE is based off the Arc'teryx Bora 95. IMHO this is, pound for pound (and I'm talking bang for the buck) the best military ruck out there. There's still Kifaru.
