Average weight carried by infantrymen in Vietnam 85 pounds. Number below. 2 Frag grenades - 2 lb., 2 Smoke grenades - 3 lb., 1 claymore mine - 3.5 lb., Helmet - 5 lb., boots - 2 lb., Poncho and liner 3 lb., entrenching shovel - 5 lb., gas mask 2.5 lb, M16 ammo - 14 lb, 200 hundred M60 ammo in can - 13 lb, rifle - 7.5 lb., 3-4 days C rations 6 lb., 1 1/2 gal. water - 12 lb adds up to 78.5 pounds. additionally a fire team shared equipment to include a full sized shovel, a full sized pick, starlight scope, LAW and radio batteries, 1.machete 3 lbs for about another 7 lb. The 173rd Airborne Brigade humped that load 7 days a week on a year long back packing trip in very rugged country. The 173rd did not wear flak jackets because of the heat and heavy load. I believe most if not all Army light infantry units carried the same load in the same conditions of high heat and humidity.
