The web braces,left and right;

The haversack (smallpack) and L straps if worn in place of the largepack;

The largepack with cross straps and L straps;

The entrenching tool and carrier that hooks to the top web tab on the largepack or haversack;

The canteen,carrier and folding cup;

The basic pouches;

The 2 piece mess tins and carrier;
