My Promise to YOU, Military Personnel (and, Civilians).....
....as you Continue to read this Military Clothing and Equipment Squidoo Lens.
Even though most of the known world may view you in this manner, you can rest assured that you'll be welcomed with open arms, in this Squidoo Lens. Before we start, with what has quickly become a rather lengthy, and detailed, Squidoo lens, my promise to you is to strive my very hardest to make this the best resource that I possibly can. You can guarantee that I'll put hours and hours of work into this Squidoo Lens, and, my hope is that you'll be able to benefit from it, in some way.Companies, that I have personally used, have been integrated into this Squidoo Lens, in a hope that you will gain some benefit from this Comprehensive resource and guide. Currently, this is the FIRST, and only, Squidoo Lens of it's kind, in a massive database of over 700,000+ Squidoo Lenses. Even if others come along, I will still strive to make this resource the very best. Without the information, gear, and products, featured in this Squidoo Lens, I can sincerely say that I'm not sure that I would even still be alive today.
So........While you read this page, it may be best to view this Squidoo Lens as a Life-line, of sorts, rather than just any, ordinary, Squidoo Lens. Because of the wealth of information supplied in this Squidoo Lens, many other, complementary lenses have been created, as well. I have put just as much time, effort, and care, into developing those particular Squidoo Lenses, as I have this one.
If YOU ever deem this Squidoo lens helpful, or have benefited from it in any way, it would be an absolute honor to have you share it with your friends, and family. As members of the military, we hold a special bond, of-sorts, that I am proud of. I have not just written this Squidoo lens for no reason. Instead, I do feel that, in many ways, it is my 'obligation', to ensure that my fellow soldiers not only have the essential gear and equipment that they need to survive on the battlefield, but, that they also have a comprehensive resource that offers a wide variety of options for retailers, pricing, product offering(s), and, even, my own personal grading system.

Army vs. Navy (?)
...beyond Football......which Branch is best?
The tradition of the Army vs. Navy Football game inspired this particular duel. In good (clean) fun, let's take it one step further beyond the clash of helmets and shoulder pads on that sweat-stained gridiron.

Which Branch of the Military is the BEST?
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byArmy
baptisedbyfire says:
I would say the Army. I spent 8years in, been to Iraq and was wounded there in 2005. The Army by far. I have met many a slodier that has got out of the Marines, Navy, Airforce and even Coast guard and has gone into the Army. An for dabigdippa, Navy seals are not the best. Delta is the best. You could have one standing next to you and not even know he was military. He would look like a normal person.

Navy
access2 says:
It really depends on what you're trying to do. I was a Navy corpsman, and I'd have to say the best medical care is ... Air Force flight surgeons. (Didn't see that coming, did you?) On the whole, the Navy / Marines aren't intended as occupation forces. All around the Navy has it's sea, air and land components, and SEAL teams seem to do a lot of the SOF heavy lifting, but I'm wondering a.)Why do you ask? and b.)Why leave out football?

The best is the one that needed at the moment-- I'll go in on the Navy side to support the underdog. I'm Tipi's sister and have been visiting around abit over the weekend and have see your smiling face and read your words of encouragement--you seem to be embracing the spirit of Squidoo.

Integrating only the BEST for Military....
....into this Squidoo Lens!
As YOU continue to read this Squidoo Lens, before you listen to anything I say, I completely understand the need to establish a solid foundation of credibility.With over 7 years of Military service (U.S. Army.....Hooah!), and an overseas combat tour under my belt, you can rest assured that my recommendations will be with regards to products that I have personally used myself. Not only that, but I have also personally shopped at all of the retailers that I will be presenting to you throughout the duration of this Lens.
The Following are the companies that I will be recommending:
Military Headgear
Tactical Eyewear
Hydration Packs
Rifle Scopes
Option #2
Option #2
Option #3
Option #3
An incredible amount of thought, and effort, will be placed into making this Squidoo Lens a great resource, regardless of your given branch of service. Throughout this lens, I will integrate personal recommendations from a variety of retailers of military gear, clothing, and equipment, that have established a strong online, and offline (Brick-and-mortar stores) presence.
When it comes to products like, for example, military combat boots, I will try my very hardest to give you a vast array of product options. Because many companies will be listed on this Squidoo lens, I do ask that you take time, and explore, and try to find the products, and pricing, that work best for you.
As a long-time U.S. soldier, I feel it is my obligation, and duty, to 'take care' of other soldiers (and, other military, of course), regardless of whether it's on the battlefield, or on a Squidoo Lens.
For that reason, my promise to you is to present you with the most enjoyable, clearly written and organized, resource, that you can utilize when the time comes to search out products that could ultimately make the difference in how you perform such a crucial job and function.

Who will benefit from this Squidoo Lens?

Comparison of Companies and their Product Offerings
The following three companies will be the first to receive this honorable treatment. This is because I feel that, in combination, their product offerings represent and embody the full-spectrum of military 'essential' needs. From tactical gear, to the best priced boots on cyberspace, to that Holiday Gift reserved for a Veteran, I encourage you to scrutinize these companies, and hold them to the same standard that a newly Private would encounter on his/her very first day of basic training.
Let the bus-doors swing open. No drill sergeant is in your face this time, however, it's up to us to separate the cream of the crop from the dead-weight. Future military personnel will 'Thank Us' for saving them the frustration, or, God-forbid, DANGER, related to poor products and customer service.

While I don't feel that any one, of these companies, is essentially "better" than the other, however, they are each able to meet different needs, with their diverse product offerings, in an innovative manner. While 'the Supply Sergeant' may be the best place to have military name-tags made, Duffle-Bag Depot appears to have solidified their business around the sale of the Belleville Boots. While their website could use a little work, in terms of aesthetics, their prices on Belleville Boots, in particular, are, hands-down, the best in cyberspace.

.....maintaining Humor, in the face of War.
.....and, let's not forget that, no matter how critical our jobs in the military may be, we should try our hardest not to loose our sense of humor. The following pieces of headgear are for those military servicemen, and women, who exemplify 'uniqueness' and dare to be different. I wouldn't recommend wearing these while "on-duty", though.

Whether you are serving in the barren desert of the Middle East, or in a more 'subtle' climate back on the homefront stateside, military footwear runs the gauntlet of various branding. From combat boots to the newest generation in sock-comfort, one thing is for sure, proper foot care is vital to mission completion.
In this section, not only will I show you a variety of products, but, I will also show you some of the brand offerings of various companies that cater to a military population. There is no doubt that you'll be able to find many of the same products, at different companies, however, variations in pricing can be so steep that they warrant noticing, and consideration.
Combat boots, for instance, can become quite pricely, unless, of course, you know where to go to find quality, excellent service, and superior pricing. Iv'e explored to the ends of cyberspace, and have found lesser-known companies that, in my experience, have had excellent service, but also don't price gouge those who serve selflessly in the U.S. Military.

- Get the protection that Military, Police and Adventurers rely on - dry surface protection for all types of metal finishes, wood and plastics, too. TUF-CLOTH is a unique replacement for oil/silicone gun and reel cloths and other conventional rust and corrosion inhibitors. Cleans, prevents rust, and lubricates with a fast-drying, water-displacing micro-bonding crystal barrier that won't wash off or attract dust and dirt like oil-based products. Great for duty pistols, rifles and shotguns, knives, fishing equipment, and tools because it doesn't leave a slippery film like silicone cloths. Don't risk valuable equipment when complete corrosion protection is this easy!
