Kifaru Ruck Permissible at SFAS?

[HoosGhost]

Gents, please pardon my intrusion.

A close friend is preparing for SFAS. A small group of friends would like to purchase him a nice Kifaru ruck for his journey.

Would he be permitted to carry it during SFAS? And even if permitted, might it draw attention for the wrong reason?

Many thanks,
/Hoos

No, it is necessary in order to maintain an accurate assessment of all candidates under the same conditions.
