Bugging out "On the Road"

The man and boy in "The Road"



might have found this better than a shopping cart....



Midget Bushtrekka bicycle trailer with tent affords above-ground sleeping

though it still has the weakness of needing to be pulled along "The Road"

 

"
n my book, for the not insignificant US$899.99 outlay (okay, a little less from Amazon) for the Bushtrekka, I'd ideally like it to sleep two, perhaps by means of a specially-integrated tent designed specifically for the unit, perhaps with a system of unfolding legs to provide the additional floor area that would be necessary.

Much better option:

True, as they lived in the boonies, the NVA and VC used them. Our LRRP/SF patrols did also but in a more limited fashion. Regular Infantry didn't use them as a jungle hammock is a distance above the ground or a bad place to be when mortars or RPGs visit.

Most BO types don't spend a week of their vacation testing their BOB as if they did they'd discover "stuff" grows on the body quickly.
Medical jungle rot is a tropical ulcer; aka "Aden ulcer," "Malabar ulcer," and "Tropical phagedena." To us, it was any fungus which grew on the body.

As it meant base camp until it cleared up, a bad case was a good thing.
