The sleeping bag is vacuum-pressure packed in a thin vinyl bag. It is sealed at the

factory and cannot be repacked. Care must be taken when handling and packing

sleeping bag to prevent tearing of the vinyl bag and losing the vacuum. Should the

vacuum be lost, sleeping bag will swell and become too bulky to repack in the

survival kit. If opened they cannot be resealed and used again. They must be

removed and replaced in survival kit. Opened sleeping bags can either be used for

training or turned in for disposal as required.
