Have socks in water tight bags. If things go south your feet will probably fail you much sooner than you expect. Water plus constant friction & little fresh air will cripple you fast.
Grunts live and die on their feet.
If you fail that then know the pain slows with time and recharges when you get off your feet so don’t rest until you have to (took me around 45 to go numb but may vary). Triple antibiotic and dry socks can fix this before it gets to bad.
Can confirm from my pre-motherhood days when I did a lot of serious camping and hiking. Two pairs of dry socks (one thin liner pair and one wool pair) and a tube of polysporin in a baggie.
I have been to many conventions with friends. While not quite the same, most people I have gone with never bring even basic snacks with them, while I bring enough food for myself and some to share. Things get quite sour even in an indoor setting when people aren’t eating enough, or eating right. Had to basically feed 4 people one year just to keep spirits decent, since there was almost nothing open nearby that year.
Dry socks y’all (Infantry Pedes get this 😂).

Nail American flag to baseball bats, if police asks it's a 'flagpole'
Determination for love of Country beats all these. You will forge through what you have too, to bring them to heel.
