My daughter will be at BOLC in San Antonio this summer, she has asked for a Digital ACU Camelbak.  I'm not 100% sure what she needs, what's allowable, or where to get one.  Help a Dad out!

Look here It's probably not the cheapest place but it's a start.

I suggest this or this if she doesn't need/want pockets but I like having a pocket on my CamelBak.

I don't know how different BOLC is compared to enlisted, but I would think she'll be issued one. Barring that, have her pick one up at the PX on post. And I would second the suggestion at getting one with a pocket. Which eliminates the issue camelbak

Thanks guys.  She won't be issued one, so I'll look at your suggestions.

hey were in PA are you located? I know of a good place in harrisburg that sells surplus good condition stuff she can use. Its called Lee's Surplus. They also have an ebay store called " Lee's Surplus Outlet.

I'm in Harrisburg!

Looks like they may have moved since the last time I was there. Check their page on Facebook "Lee Surplus Outlet." They have an address, phone number and hours.

Hope this helps you out!

If you gave her the money, since she is uniformed she could go to clothing and sales at  Fort Indiantown Gap. I used a Camelbak Thermobak at IBOLC and it worked perfectly. I still use it. I could hook it up with D-rings to my IOTV for live fire training or put it in my ruck during patrolling. Since ACU is falling out of favor with consumers, there are places that usually offer that pattern at a cheaper price. If you want to buy it yourself, buy right now (2 hours left) from here: http://tacticalgear.com/camelbak-thermobak-3l-universal .

There is a 16% off code that will expire soon. It's posted in the banner.


Edit: I see you haven't updated in a few days so I doubt you'll see this in time.

They will sell them at the shopette on base.  They will make a run for supplies and she could pick one up then.  Just a thought.
