An additional note for soldiers...

Please make sure your cartridge box contains the tins! The event coordinators are stressing participants are equipped with plenty of ammunition for multiple hot battles per day. And I know you can carry more ammo by not having the tins in the cartridge box. However, missing tins was noted as a safety concern during inspections at the Valley Campaign earlier this year and will be something that the 4th Regiment staff will be looking for.

Good call, Jeff!

And with the recent cases of West Nile virus, investing in some mosquito repellent might be worth considering.
