I don't like being referred to as "Bro".
NDD hit the head. Take what you need and then what you may want. We used to get a kick of the RVN returnees to the 10th SFGA. The name of their game was "Travel light and freeze at night."
In addition to the essential military gear we also carried Gaz stoves and fresh food like potatoes, rice, tobasco, onions etc.
Normally the ruck and march are the means and not the ends.
Frankly, I never weighed one but have seen rocks snuck into rucks that people loaded with inflated air mattresses.
