Only then we called it bivouac, and it came at the end of a 20 mile forced march, with full 80 pound pack, including an M-1 rifle! So I set up my tiny pup tent, and crawled inside into my uninsulated sleeping bag. I was freezing, so I took my helmet to the mess tent, filled it with hot coals and hung it in my tent for a little warmth. ( The next morning the lieutenant asked me why my helmet looked like it had been in a fire?) That was my experience in camping!<br />So that's why I never took you kids camping. I built a chalet instead. And if you kids wanted to camp out, you could do it in the boat, or driveway, while I slept inside, in a warm bed!<br />Dad.Jerry Minnehttp://cottagerentalcabinchalet.comnoreply@blogger.com
