The Military have some great ideas... Shame most of them are about better and more effective ways of killing people... This one is special. Basically its a sleeping bag for the German Army...and more. In essence, its a jacket-cum-sleeping bag. Your top half is in a jacket / bottom half is in a sleeping bag (which can be unzipped to let you walk about). I believe you can even secure the "bag" and wear the whole thing as a jacket.How cool is that??? I remember a pal of mine, Gordon, had one when we camped out at Balvonie for a Youth Chorus practice.
Anyway, got me thinking... could we not supply these to roughsleepers? Keep them warm but also safe and able to defend themselves if necessary.
Hmm???
