A compact and lightweight sleeping bag for summer use. The specialty of the Jungle bag is that it also works as a blanket and like the American Woobie!
Until recently, the British army generally used two sleeping bags: the hefty PLCE sleeping bag and this lightweight Jungle sleeping bag, designed for warm climates, so it's perfect for summer use. One could also wear warm clothing and cover the bag with a bivy bag to extend the comfort range.
The bag opens all the way with a sturdy zipper, thus doubling as a blanket. The hood can be drawn tighter with the provided cords.
There are tie cords along the edges, enabling this to work as a poncho liner. Kinda like the US "Woobie", but slightly thicker!
Moreover, the sleeping bag can be worn as a poor man's thermal cloak - see the pictures!
Used British military surplus but in perfectly usable condition. Some have color blemishes due to long exposure to the sun.
Pro Tip: The US poncho liner "Woobie" can be attached to this bag so well it almost fits 1:1. This combination greatly increases the warmth of the bag!
