Thanks also for the Rite in the Rain link as well.

There's a reason the Army standard expects every squared away soldier to have something to write with and on at all times. The more tired you get and the more complicated the things you have to remember - the more likely you are to fail to recall key components of your mission/instructions. Take notes as required and use them. Don't forget OPSEC though and always remember to sterilize notes you no longer need. Rite in the Rain is good stuff and available in several formats. The only thing it won't work for is TP - not absorbent at all! Peregrino
