Canadian Soldiers New Look
I found this story interesting I don't know anything much about Soldiers uniforms. I wonder what they typically have to carry with them at all times and how much weight they're lugging around as they do thier duty.

Others more current than I can advise as to the details. In operations out on the field for days or weeks on end, you can expect a substantially higher load, in the order of 80 to 100 lbs, in addition to their weaponry. They're VERY fit young men...

I assume what the Soldiers wear and lug around depends on all sorts of things like climate and purpose, expected duration, and so forth. Common-sense really I think I'll nip over to my Uncle'sthread and ask ... What would the Soldiers, like my Uncle, have been wearing and lugging around when they landed on the Normandy Beach? .... anyone who can answer this can follow me over to the History Section .............
