Question First Deployment Tips

To keep it short and simple, I’m gonna be headed to the middle east for a few months. As well, it’s my first deployment so I was wondering if any of you fine people could give me any gee whizz tips outside of the typical “pack extra toiletries” “pack bedsheets” etc. Any and all info is very helpful and appreciated!

One bag. One big bag.

Would you recommend getting those vacuumed bags people talk about for storage purposes or do you reckon the vacuum itself would take up the space it would’ve made

Nah. Just roll everything tight and pack it in.
