Army Tents

An imperative part of the inventory for military operations is tents. Tents required by the military are often subject to several stringent specifications, depending upon the geographical terrain, climatic conditions and various other factors. For example, a tent which is to be used in the Arctic region would differ in its requirement outlines from the one which is to be used in an arid region. Army tents came into the system in a big way, primarily after the Second World War and now find extensive use in not only national defence operations but also by the United Nations and for disaster relief operations.

The time taken for pitching the tent depends on the size of the tent and the number as well as the experience of the people involved. Camping tents take anywhere between 5 to 25 minutes to set up.

Organic Bug Spray

You can purchase an herbal bug spray called Buzz Away in your local health food store. A little goes a long way, and it’s quite effective. The animals don’t really like it and try to get away from it when you spray it on their fur or on their herbal flea collars, but during tick season, it’s worth it. If you want to make your own though (or use it as a very inexpensive room deodorizer) here’s a recipe for you:
