VIDEO: Prepared Airman Discusses Hydration Options

 The Prepared Airman discusses the water containers that have worked best for him over the years for outdoors, working outside, and when deployed. Like a lot of other military YouTubers, he indicates that he has gone over to using the Qore Performance ice flasks when kitted up in a plate carrier; but before those were available, he used the Life Water bottles (presumably he would refill them). He also mentions that his current set up for outdoor is a Grayl Geo Press bottle (he uses the titanium version) and a small 1.5 liter hydration pack. 

I saw a comment to the video questioning why use the Grayl when it doesn't carry that much water. This misses the point. The Grayl is fast at filtering and has a large opening. If you come across a water source, you can filter the water, pour it into another container, and repeat as necessary, and then leave the Grayl full for that extra it carriers.
