What are your favorite "Field Hacks"?

used to do it in my steel pot

Coffee pot to make Ramen Noodles... Little taste of home

I've used generators to sit my food on just to get it semi hot for dinner while in Africa. Baby wipes for pretty much anything from hygiene to cleaning weapons. QTips for the same reason. Moleskin is a must! Never know when someone will need it!

Working at night off the main base at DaNang to have a hot meal we would use an empty can with vent holes in it, put a dime size ball of semi dry napalm under it from where there had been a leaker. Light it and place C-ration etc. on top and heat. Worked great and we did not have to make the drive 2 more times in the dark.

Well i have many but my favorite is the pancho, silver bullet coffee pot, eye wash station, 5 gallon water jug, air house to hemtt glad hand = tada hot water, pressurized shower in any field environment

We used to take our mre pouches and tape (100mph tape) them to the engine/transfer case in the 113 when in Yakima firing center during winter. Drive around do what needs to be done..lunch was always warm.

Used aluminum foil from a gum wrapper to fix a diesel heater on an M60A3 tank to get some heat during a winter exercise. Those things were like a freezer without heat in a German winter!

Best ever ive seen is turning a broken cot into a hammock with some 550 cord.......best thing ever invented 550 cord......

MRE heater in BFV for coffee. Driver bought a coffe press and jacked coffee from chow hall. Oh and keeping those Otis spunkmeyer muffins near engine to keep warm. Made Iraq almost bearable.

Made pseudo brownies from MRE kits with cocoa, sugar & creamer.
