[pct-l] Eyeglass wearers

[David Thibault]

 I just use the spring loaded clip ons - about $13 at walmart.  It may be
just me, but I've never really felt like I needed the side shades.  If i did
feel I needed them I would just put my bandana into my hat and make a
kerchief to block the side light.  I like to Keep it simple.

I threw some glasses wet naps into my resupply boxes and they were nice to
have (I doubt I ever carried more than 2 at a time) but when I ran out water
and a bandana did the trick.
