Thirsty Trooper: Trying to figure out how to store water in the suit


Recommended Posts

My area of the country can get really hot, Especially when trooping.  So I have been trying to figure out how to discreetly mount a camelbak or water bladder in the space under the back panel. Then run the hose up over my shoulder and into my helmet. Then I can keep hydrated without having to take off my helmet. Larger bladders are too big (especially when filled) to fit under the back panel, I'm considering trying this one instead and somehow mounting it in the back panel itself. --

 

What do you think? Has anyone tried this or does everyone just wear a normal camelbak when its really hot.

Some clear reticulation hose from the water container up inside your neck seal then up into your bucket should work ;)

You are just as well to properly hydrate the night before a troop. You are less likely to need to use the facilities

Say that to the guy that takes diuretics, like me....loll
