Here’s How To Set Up Your Flak Like A Combat Correspondent

I don't want any flak from this post. Ya hear!

For combat correspondents setting up their flak jackets for the first time, here’s what worked for me.
While I was in the Marines, I served as a combat correspondent, deploying twice to Afghanistan with 1st Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment. While I had a fair amount of training on how to do my job, it never included instruction on how to set up my kit so I could work comfortably and effectively.
