I was in at the beginning of Gen 1 Gortex.

Only the seals had Gore-Tex when I was in. We were still in the vietnam ponchos.

I'm starting to feel like that old dude that walked 10 miles to school uphill both ways in the snow.

Never been colder in my life than guard duty in Kansas. Gear issued back then was crap. 87 to 89.
