How to Acquire: Unit-level supply personnel should use the Class II / IX supply system to requisition these items, using the provided NSN's. Alternatively, PR&C's could be used, or for small-quantity orders IMPAC / GPC cards could work as well (via the ArmyProperty Store or other vendors). Contact Us for larger quantities or items that you're having a hard time finding. Soldiers and leaders should use official channels to the maximum extent before spending their own money to purchase these items.

7. Tent Heaters -- One of the few models that are actually approved for use inside Army tents. The large tent heater is manufactured by Hurricane Heaters, and costs approx $400 if you order it through the supply system. It will easily keep a battalion TOC (roughly 3-4 SICPS tents attached together) 60 plus degrees when it is sub-freezing outdoors.
8. Pistol Lanyards. These aren't just useful for your M9 (or other pistol), they can be used to tie down ANCD's, PLGRs, and other sensitive items. NSN 8465-00-965-1705 is green nylon, and 8465-00-262-5237 is white. Blackhawk! also makes a pistol lanyard which is made of a coiled, black rubber-coated steel cable, with NSN 4020-01-493-8335. The coiled lanyards will usually make it through a year-long deployment, and their flexible, retractable characteristics mean they won't get tangled up with the rest of your gear, compared to a "straight" nylon lanyard.
