-The Star Army Towel can be a massively useful piece of equipment in the hands of any crafty Star Army Personnel. The towel can be wrapped around an individual for warmth during a recon trek across the frozen tundras of [[system:tange#tange_iv_tange | Tange IV]]; The towel can be laid upon on the marble sands of one of the many resorts that dot [[planet:hanakos_world]]; The towel can be slept under beneath the bright stars of the arid [[planet:osman]]; Used to sail across the glowing Sea of Dreams on [[planet:maekardan]] at night on a miniraft; wetted for hand-to-hand combat in one of the fighting rings deep within [[location:funky_city]]; wrapped around one's head to avoid the stink vapors when dealing with the [[species:graxlat]] (A generally unpleasant species that emit a horrendous odor); used to signal maneuvers with little-to-no electronic trace; and of course, dry one's self if it is still clean enough at the end of the day. +The Star Army Towel can be a massively useful piece of equipment in the hands of any crafty Star Army Personnel.

-The Star Army Towel also carries a psychological value to it. Occasionally, if a civilian is to come across any Star Army personnel with a Star Army Towel, they will assume the personnel is currently on leave and is possession of a toothbrush, washcloth, soap, [[stararmy:foods:field_rations]], [[stararmy:equipment:toiletry_kit]], 100 KS, [[stararmy:equipment:jerrycan_jug]], [[stararmy:equipment:holiday_kit_type_36 | Star Army Holiday Kit (Depending on the time of year)]], etc, etc. If the personnel is currently without any of the essentials of daily hygiene, then the civilian may donate several or more items to them.+The Star Army Towel also carries a psychological value to it.

 Furthermore, if an enemy combatant comes across any Star Army personnel wielding a towel, there is a nominal chance of the enemy surrendering as any soldier brave enough to rush into battle with nothing but a towel is clearly a soldier to be reckoned with. Furthermore, if an enemy combatant comes across any Star Army personnel wielding a towel, there is a nominal chance of the enemy surrendering as any soldier brave enough to rush into battle with nothing but a towel is clearly a soldier to be reckoned with.
