[pct-l] The inner me..............and thigh rash!

[athiker at cboss.com (Pat)]

If you have a Target store near go to the men's underwear section and they
have nylon brief's. They weigh almost nothing, they keep things from
rubbing, you can rinse them out and they dry almost instantly and their
pretty comfortable. They come in 5-4 packs in assorted colors, I try and
find a pack with black and green ones in it.
