  I hope you are not thinking tactical carry. Old days when manpacks were for 84 rds only, stretcher was carried on top of field pack in a upturned V, not very pretty and tends to fall every which way but no additional gear required. just greater clearance etc.

  i think get ALICE pack better, should see the price of the blackhawk packs, somemore sekali some big shot who cant afford it might pull rank on you and say it cannot be used in SAF. then wasted. at least get an ALICE pack better some BN Plt Sergeants use it, so not so bad. Unless you regular and your BN allow non-issued items to be used then go for the Blackhawk packs.
