11/18/2002: Army patrol in Afghanistan

The worst part is if when you're wearing night vision for an extended period of time. They don't feel that heavy, but the weight of the helmet plus those goggles really gets to ya if you're walking 20 miles.

Everything else is pretty well designed to not be too much of a burden, if you tweak it right. You can carry 60 lbs. on your back for a helluva lot farther than you probably think you could, if the weight is dispersed right.
