With regard to the sag in the tent try tightening your ridge line and only lightly tighten the twoside tensioning guy lines, it appears they are pulling down on the ridge line and causing the sag. pull the corner guy ropes out as stongly as you see fit, they will strengthen the structure. When trying the rations I look for what facilities the nation supplying the rations issued to its troops: the British Army issued messtins and alcohol burner though these days most use a gas burner to heat the ration packs such as a jetboil. In the case of those French rations I think mess tins and semi submerge in water then bring to the boil. (this also gives hot water for a brew. the buiscuits may be for eating with the pate and the confectionary represents the national tastes, not nessessarily the kind of stuff a Briton would like.

@@gibbo573 hello mate, the only reason was to trial the cam net and to also make camp look a little more interesting. I’m glad you liked the video buddy 🤙🏽

Hello mate, why carry a cam net when you’re on a permission site? Good video though.

is the french army aware that there have been developments in tents since 1957 ?
Looking at the size of u it is a one man tent. Never been issued cam nets, seats, fuel cans, and al, the other rub is u have around d you.
