I haven't seen any good examples for a Company Commander's chest rig. I require different things to carry than say your average rifleman. I'm also a tanker. Any good examples for a leaders' chest rig? Thanks!

How can a Tanker get into and out of the tank with that much crap in the way...

Okay so forget the tank lol
What about for when I'm out of the tank or in my HMWWV?

I'd say the simpler, the better - what you *need* to have, plus a few commonly used odds & ends. What's in the picture looks pretty reasonable to me.
From what I recall, my commanders typically had only their basic equipment loadout (magazines, first aid pouch, water) along with a radio & some writing material.

Yes MAJ (Join to see) ... believe it or not, in 1985, when I was commissioned armor, we still had these... All you really is a pistol and few mags... Like being a MP in combat, if we get to pistols... Shit is not going well...

I was thinking about buying one of these and sporting it as a throwback! Haha How was it?

MAJ (Join to see) - Well, it was all we had... Things are much more ergonomic and sophisticated these days... I would say having as a nice thing to have would be cool, but not to use. I saw some idiot Battalion Commander on the ground during the surge, sporting one with a 9mm.... He looked like an idiot... Of course he was an idiot... The 1911 era chest holster just made it obvious...
