Marseilles Fall 2025

Overview

This fall we will have a 4 day FTX at Marseilles Training Center. We will do the following:

For Precamp: Learn as much as you can before going to the FTX to make things easier.

Packing a ruck

Couple tips for packing a ruck

• Line the rucksack with a wet weather bag or trash bag, this helps keep things dry
• Rule of thumb is lightest items go towards the bottom, heavier items go on top
• Use your sustainment pouches and pockets fro stuff you need quick access to
• If you need quick access to something then put it towards the top
