field gear
Soldier's carried items
Field gear is the equipment and supplies needed for work conducted outdoors or in remote locations, away from permanent facilities.
The term appears most often in military contexts—soldiers loaded their field gear onto trucks—but extends to scientific fieldwork, surveying, archaeology, and outdoor recreation.
Field gear typically includes items meant to be portable and durable under rough conditions.
