this is an awesome tent period. One person can set it up but two is really required. take down by one person easily performed. Used this tent for a few year in Colorado archery elk hunting. Temperatures during those years were warm, did not really need a stove although one year installed a wood burning pot belly stove. Basically too much heat too be comfortable inside tent. Below zero we would have been more than comfortable. Ten men would be damned cramped in this tent, but for combat would be great. If you are looking for some thing that 3 people can put up, be comfortable ( unless you are really tall) this is the tent. going to be really cold bring small wood stove that you could cook on electric lights as burning a lantern maybe dangerous inside or candles may be option. also quick note all the sides can be undone and folded up on hot days making it a cover more than a tent. 10 out of 10 this is a great tent very sturdy. we got one after the first year elk hunting we went out set up our camp the week before, storm came thru and blew it all down or away. this one will not blow away LOL
Good video over all. One point to consider, the fuel can as shown on the field expedient tripod is too high. From the TM (At the fuel supply site, set up fuel can stand (optional item, refer to AAL WP0045) with fuel can (5) level or slightly above heater as detailed in the next section.) The reason is the additional height (head pressure) could cause the fuel to overfill the FFCV and create a fire hazard.
Additionally, it may be the policy at NWTC to get everyone out during a fuel change (with the old YUKON stove it was mandatory due to using MOGAS) but with the SHA (diesel) it is unnecessary. The quick disconnect allows fuel cans to be switched in seconds. There is enough fuel still in the FFCV to burn uninterrupted during the change over. To get people out and exposed to the elements opens them up cold weather injuries as well.
I like your information, great technology. But I do prefer the Norwegian army tent stove and brilliant heat output, just with some silver birch. It's a godsend of a tent stove, simply a practical other cave man option. I like your videos and information.
We had more poles and the sidewalls were higher , we didn’t have to crawl in, and we used Mo- gas for the stove ,used it in the lantern too back in 1973
Hammers are heavy. The same “end” can be achieved with a hatchet or axe with a strike suitable rear. Plus the axe can b used to process firewood. A hammer isn’t very useful when you’re pulling it up a mountain.
All I have to say is Goretex, woodland, Modular Sleep System and Cold War. Being born in '89. I never knew what it was like but man would I have to have been in during that time.

Went through NWTC back in 2004, best TDY I ever had. Man this video brings back memories

Higher an more tent poles?! Sounds like a GP small.

Where can I find the complete kit. I want it all.
Remarkable how little has changed in this video and the one that the army produced in 1950.
It’s still way over complicated.
same gear in 1989 when I was with 501st at ft.richardson.......if it aint broke
If the army selling this whole system. Ill happily buy it
They do lol
Operation Jack Frost, Brim Frost etc......... Stoves worked just fine
The narrator should be asking where “Bueller” is…
This film was mad in the eighties. They are all wearing BDU's.
All I have to say is Goretex, woodland, Modular Sleep System and Cold War. Being born in '89. I never knew what it was like but man would I have to have been in during that time.
What an expensive and complicated stove!
have to say that finish army tent and stove is better than this one
Holy cow, did the narrator practice to be as boring as possible?
