Here is a question for OC-Ts past and present across all CTCs. If you could take x3 items to the box, what would they be? Name your CTC.

LTC Private RallyPoint Member I would take my P-38, some duct tape and 5-50 cord to JRTC, you just never know what situation you might find yourself in. I used them to perfection in the box.

FM 6-0, the unit SOP and battle drills, and a peer mentality (you can learn from them too).

I served as a Black Horse/Eagle Horse soldier at Fort Irwin Nov. 2005 through Oct. 2007. Since you posted this question under Airborne school (originally), can I assume that the three items I would take are in addition to the parachute? If so, I would take a knife, a mirror, and as much water as I could carry! Especially, if I was L.I.D.!

LTC Private RallyPoint Member I was there 2002 as a fill in OC-T. I had a gallon ziplock bag with assorted seasonings for food(have to have my Texas Pete). Since I had a HUMVEE and lived out of it pretty much the staples to be a comfortable as possible. I did have a small tarp and bungee cords that came in real handy.

Just 3 things? You can put a lot of comfort items in the Huey or Blackhawk: small BBQ, briquettes, beach chairs, cooler, soda, sun screen, food, water, more food, more water, ice for the cooler to keep the snickers bars cold, etc, etc. ;-)
