This could be important— Give me some basic details of what your character has brought along, in both checked-in and carry-on luggage. Might also be a good idea to figure out what he's wearing too—could be stuck with it for a while

Wearing: probably the same sort of thing that Michael Weston would wear. Slacks, light jacket, shirt, tie, comfortable shoes that can be worn while running but appear almost dressy, cool sunglasses, good watch (wind-up not digital, it belonged to Dad), cellphone, wallet (with military ID, Oregon DL, photos of Mom, Dad, and the ex-girlfriend), dog tags, diamond engagement ring originally intended for the now ex-girlfriend on dog tags. Also, a jacket if it is going to be cold when we arrive, otherwise the jacket is in the checked-in luggage. Carry on: CVC bag (ACU color), with a couple of magazines (current Maxim, current Car & Driver, current Guns & Ammo, current Soldiers magazine); iPod with charger & headphones; 2 bound notebooks with hard covers & 12 pencils (he's trying to write a book ... but failing); digital camera with charger; lucky compass; dogeared copy of "Starship Troopers" by Robert Heinlein (given to character by previous commanding officer who died in action so it has sentimental value); some unit paperwork in hardcopy in a clipboard; partially filled out CIA job application; ruggedized laptop (kinda small) with charger; some beef jerky. Luggage: One bag, contains: dress blue uniform; four changes of clothes including different shoes; PT gear; one ACU uniform (just in case I need it); shaving & bathroom gear; a couple of good knives (intended to be a wedding gift for the buddy); rugged flashlight; visitor's guide to Amsterdam; English to Dutch phrase/guidebook; some more beef jerky; FM 4-02.4 (Medical Platoon Leader's Handbook); FM 4-02.6 (The Medical Company: Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures); deflated football and a small hand pump; a jacket if it isn't going to be cold when we arrive, otherwise the jacket is being carried/worn. I think that about covers it. I've included some stuff in there that will aid me in developing his character a bit but really doesn't have much game use.

Just occurred to me that this is February, and you're going from Seattle to Northern Europe over the Arctic. You guys should probably be dressed for winter weather

Yeah, I had it built in with the comment about the jacket being worn if it was cold or in the luggage if it wasn't.
