Post by AC »

Introducing the new 'Arktis Special Forces Jungle Arctic Airborne Cadet Assault Vest'

Image

Pouches are as follows:

Front:
1x Catapult Pouch - Quick Draw, ideal for dealing with the Hun or nextdoors cat alike!
1x Pocket Battleships game Pouch - Perfect training for naval warfare.
1x Walkman Pouch - Record Mummys bed-time stories, and listen to them in the field - perfect.
1x Action Man Pouch - The greatest hero of them all. Need a buddy to keep stag outside your tent in case of attack? Have no fear, for now you can have a miniature, 'rufty-tufty' Marine/Para/SAS/Navy SEAL blokey at your disposal within seconds!
2x Small toiletries Pouches (shown with Exfoliating Minty facial scrub) - Not compatible with Matey bubblebath.
1x Horizontal 'Chomp' bar pouch - also holds small bag of Jelly Babies.
2x Document pouches - suitable for carrying important documents such as "The Beano" and "Dandy" without them becoming all nasty and soiled!

Side:
1x Universal Tactical cuddly-wuddly teddy Pouch - also offers slight Ballistic Protection depending on teddy density.
1x Randy McNob literature Pouch - Perfect for carrying Field Manuals such as "Bravo Two Zero".

All with waterproof lining so your sarnies won't get soggy if you trip over in a puddle. Contents not included with Purchase - so naff off! Price: Three weeks pocket money, a packet of Rolos and a Wayne Rooney Premier League sticker. .:lol:
If it doesn't hurt it's not worth doing!

I've worn a "Vest" [not singlet] for the last 20 odd years. Its for fishing, and I think you will find thats where they all originated from.
The photographers started using them because of the ammount of pockets they had. They then started to increase the ammount of pockets, and that where the problems start.
The one I wear has 4 pockets on the front and a large pocket at the back, my mates has 22 pockets and can never find anything.
Stick to the webbing, at least you will know where everything is.

Take away all the pockets and you loose the whole essence of adventure and fun which gets cadets excited :crazyeyes:

p.s. this smiley reminds me of my old physics teacher who got hi on extacy before my lessons
