This OCIE list says big Army will charge you 75$ for it. Search Amazon for a better price.

These are running as low as 50$. Good luck.
The modern gear can net a unit with the framed backpacking pack, and a back pack / day pack affordably
Moll II assault pack. You can find them for like $60 on ebay. Heavy as hell, but it has a ton of capacity and you can attach an external sleep system bag.
Pssshhh
You can stuff 15 12-packs in there. It will weigh approx 47 lbs. It was a good idea.
I bought myself a military modular sleep system and it is the best camping thing I ever bought.
The sleep system consists of 3 parts: 30 degree (F) sleeping bag, -10 degree (F) sleeping bag, and goretex bivy cover
Whats great is it is modular so you can tailor it to your environment, camping in the summer? leave the -10 degree bag at home. camping in literally arctic weather? bring them all and combine it! (good for -50 degree weather).
The 3 parts all have separate zippers and snap together nicely.
My favorite part is the waterproof goretex bag (100% waterproof and breathable). Last time I went camping it rained and I woke up sleeping in a big puddle, the sleeping bags (and I :D) were completely bone dry.
Cons are it is a bit pricey (kind of offset by long lasting durability), and it is heavy by sleeping bag standards (10 pounds for the whole thing)
If you have one, you don't technically need a tent, but everyone needs their own
Edit: Link
Double Edit: Also got this ruck which I absolutely love for its gigantic capacity and the fact that it and the sleep system were made for each other. Con being that it is also heavy (12 pounds), so with the sleep system it is pushing 22 pounds, and fully loaded for my last trip was right at 65 pounds. most of the weight was water though. Bring lots of water
