s
oldiering in dry desert
heat is brutal. Without ample
water, it can be deadly. And
without spare parts for your
hydration system, the water
won’t Fow.
When carriers rip, bladders
leak and bite valves get lost,
you need quick replacements.
Here are some NSNs for the
hydration system (Hydramax)
issued to you by the Rapid
±ielding Initiative (R±I). Its
carrier comes in a universal
camouFage (UC) and
Operation Enduring ±reedom
camouFage pattern (OCP)
camo patterns that match
the Army combat uniform
(ACU).
The hydration system and
its parts are components
of the modular lightweight
load-carrying equipment
(MOLLE).

I
knew
I shouldn’t
have put off ordering
repair parts for my
hydration system…
if you maintain
the long-range
advanced scout
surveillance
system (lras3)
infrared night
vision sight
(an/tas-8),
listen
carefully!
when you send the
lras3’s laser range
finder, nsn 1240-01-486-
5003, to the depot for
repair, remember this:
Send the entire laser
range finder.
some units are sending
only one or two parts
to the depot.
ok, now
where’s the
transceiver?
without all three parts,
the depot
can’t
make the laser range finder work!
and the supply system won’t have enough
working laser range finders to replace
those that are damaged!
so please
send the
depot
all
three parts
of the laser
range finder
from the
lras3.
