ABSTRACT:
A personnel suspended tent and rain guard apparatus provides a personnel compartment having an upper rectangular elongated roof and a lower generally coplanar floor with a plurality of side walls connecting said upper roof and said floor. A pair of upper load lines attached respectively to the opposite and parallel sides of the roof with each load line having its end portions adapted for suspending supporting attachment to rigid members, such as trees. A pair of lower load line floor supporting members are attached respectively to the opposite end portions of the floor and extend in directions away from the floor during operation for attachment to a desired point of rigidity. Spreader brackets are provided at each end portion of the floor for laterally stressing the window personnel compartment suspended by the upper and lower load lines above the ground as occurs during operation. A rain fly guard is provided above the roof and attached generally to the roof at its periphery, the rain fly providing parabolic load carrying end portions adapted to receive tensile anchoring force from for example, a plurality of tensile peg anchors.
