This is a great item, having had one in Vietnam it was one of the best pieces of equipment ever issued to the Marines.

Beware of this company Pro-Line Trading Corp. I ordered a all weather pancho liner on 11-03-09 and never recieved the item or my money back ! They said it couldn't be delievered by the post office. The post office sent it back because it was packeged incorrectly. And I never got my money !

Don't leave home without it.
Of all the pieces of U.S. military kit I've ever seen (through 20+ years of miltiary service), none equal the Wubbie for value for money, utility, and comfort.
The original idea was a quilted, water resistant blanket that could be attached to a poncho (hence the bits of string on the corners and edges) to make a warm weather sleeping bag. Yes, I've actually heard of people doing this, but this is such a limited vision of what the Wubbie is capable of.
Picnic blanket, quilt, bedspread, couch cover, used by itself as a sleeping back, in survival kits, for air travel, pet beds (with or without human consent) etc. I used to keep mine by the couch for siesta time, but it kept getting stolen. In Germany, soldiers would take an unlined rainjacket and a poncho liner to the tailor and get the best cold-wet weather jacket in the world back.
If the camo is an issue, it is available in solid black and olive green, but I don't care about the appearance.
My Wubbie is not for sale or trade. Get your own and keep your paws off mine!

My dad was in the military, and got one of these suckers for me as a baby blanket.. Twenty two years later, it's still in great condition and *my* babies are using them as THEIR baby blankets. They're as bad as I've been these past twenty two years and drag them everywhere. They are warm, soft... and a nifty something that will last forever.
