MISSION PREPARATION
Welcome back.
One step at a time. Let's get you prepared.
Deployment phase
Choose your current phase. Dates can suggest a change, but we never switch it for you.
Tools
Family preparation and trusted resources, without extra tabs.
Optional countdown
Add a personal target date if helpful. You can leave this blank.
No date set — that's okay.
Packing suggestions
Enter your deployment length for simple quantity suggestions. Your checklist will stay unchanged.
Optional — leave blank if you prefer.
Your next priorities
Suggested next steps only. Your official instructions always come first.
YOUR MISSION. YOUR CHECKLIST.
Ready for what’s next.
Organize gear by branch, category, and bag. Your checklist stays on this device.
Packing quantities are estimates for initial preparation, not supplies for an entire deployment. Branch templates are planning examples, not official packing requirements. Loading a template adds missing suggestions without deleting your items.
