GROUND POUNDER: MY TOP ALICE PACK MODS AND HACKS

THE U.S.ARMY COMBAT RUCKSACK COMMON CALLED THE ALICE PACK WAS USED FOR MANY YRS AS THE STANDARD ISSUE FOR COMBAT OPERATIONS. I CARRED THIS MODEL OF RUCKSACK FOR MANY YRS AS A BUSHCRAFT /WOODSCRAFT CAMPING RUCKSACK. THE PACK AND FRAME CAN SERVE WELL FOR OUTDOOR ADVENTURES BUT IT HAS SEVERAL WEAKNESS THEY SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. IN THIS VIDEO IWILL SHARE MANY OF THE TIPS TRICKS AND HACKS THAT I LEARNED WHILE CARRYING THIS DESIGN .
FIRST WE WILL TALK OF THE IDEA THE ARMY HAD FOR ITS USE AND THEN WE WILL REMOVE THE EXTRA PARTS OF THE RUCKSACK THET WERE A GOOD IDEA FOR MILITARY USE BUT ARE NOT A GOOD IDEA FOR CAMPING.
SECOND WE WILL CHANGE THE STRAPS TO A MORE MODEN USE AND ADD QUICK DETACH BUCKLES TO SPEED THE ENTRY TO THE PACK.
A CARRY HANDLE MOD WILL BE A GOOD HACK TO MAKE THE PACK EASIER TO GRAB AND USE ON THE RUN.
MANY OF THESE MODS WILL SERVE IN MODERN SURVIVAL TRAINING USE.IF YOU JUST WANTING TO USE A SURPLUS RUCKSACK THIS MAY BE THE MODS YOU WILL FIND MOST USEFUL.
I WILL TELL YOU HOW TO ADD WATERPROFF PROTECTION BOTH TO THE BAG ITSELF AND TO ADD A LINER TO PROTECT THE CAMPING GEAR FROM GETING WET IN EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS.
