Soldiers are amazing innovators, adapting to the situation. Duct tape definitely is an asset...so how have you used it, or seen it used in field?

Duct tape and cord - but I was always pretty proud of my TV stand in Afghanistan.

How about a duct tape wallet?

Seriously, though, I've seen it used to repair tents, as rope, to hold torn uniform items together.

That would be tough to do, SSG Laureano Pabon, since I copied it off the web. :-)

That's at least the most audacious use of duct tape I've ever seen.....if it was really used for the parachute.
