How can you get a legible copy of the assembly instructions to the Columbia 3 room cabin tent?
I am looking for a manual for Greatland Outdoors 2 room tent with screen porch item #15710, however, I guessed how the poles go together. I set up the tent by myself, but I recommend 2 people or more, especially if it is windy.
Start by stretching out the bottom of the tent into a square, and stake all of the perimeter tentloops to the ground, starting with the corners, with the stakes directed at a 30 to 45 degree angle under the tent, so the tent cannot easily pull them back out. Leave the yellow cords attached to the tentloops loose, so you can use the cords to help pull up the stakes when you take down the tent.
Now assemble the poles going through the loops across the front of the screen porch. Insert one end of a pole #1 into a pole #2 and thread them through the loops over the entrance to the screen porch. Put the long end of a curved pole #3 through the loops starting from one side, and attach to either side of the 1/#2 you made. Put the long end of another #3 through the loops starting from the other side and attach to the loose end of the #1/#2. You should tie the loose green cords on each corner of the screen porch to the silver metal rings at the curved end of each #3.
Later, you will do the exact same assembly with a #3 on each side of a #1/#2 for the poles going across the back of the tent and the poles going through the pocket across the middle/top of the tent.
Now insert the small end of pole #4 into the curved end of a #3, then insert the small end of a #5 into the open end of the #4. There should be a rubber foot on the bottom of the #5 pole. Do the same thing for the other side of the porch. With help, you should be able to prop up the front of the screen porch, pulling against the stakes holding the rear floor of the tent, and place the rubber feet of the #5 poles close to the center loops of the floor on each side.
Now prepare the #1/#2 poles for the rear, and attach a #3 to each side and tie the loose green cords to the silver rings on the short ends of the #3s. Prepare a #4/#5 pole the same as the front, and prop up the back of the tent, putting the feet near the side loops of the floor which are about 1/3 from the rear of the tent.
Make another #1/#2/#3, and push it through the pocket across the middle of the tent, and connect the last #3 from the other side. The side supports for the middle are pole #8 with the white clamp on the bottom, and pole #7 slid into pole #8 (The #7 was scraped off both of mine). Leave the #7 mostly inserted into the #8 until after the center is lifted up. The #6 goes on top of #7, and insert the #6 into the curved end of the #3 poles which are already in the center pocket, and tie the loose green cords to the silver rings at the short end on each of the #3s. Now lift up the center with someone helping on the other side, and put the feet of the #8 into or near the yellow loops at the center of each side. Loosen the white clamps and extend the #7 poles until the peak of the tent is at proper height.
Move the feet of the #5 poles closer to the tent, until all is tight, and you should be done!
How do you put up a sports dome tent?
Step 1:
Choose a good spot to pitch up your tent.
A person could setup the tent, but it would be easier with 2 people. Expect to spend around 10 minutes to setup the tent.
Step 2:
Layout the tent. Stretch out the bottom so you know exactly where the tent will be.
Step 3:
Attach the tent poles. You will thread the poles through the sleeves on the tent. Once both poles are fully through, slot the ends into the keys as shown. The tent is now erected.
Tips:
Avoid straining the poles by either putting too much stress on each piece (eg. lifting the whole pole by carrying it from it's end) or bending it too much. You will definitely stretch the elastic cords and may break or splinter the poles.
Step 4:
Now the tent is up, secure it properly to the poles. You need to tie the top and then clip all clips to the poles. After doing this, stretch the base of the tent to its maximum. Now peg the tent down. You need to peg all 4 corners and the front and back as well.
The tent itself is now fully setup.
Step 5:
Attach the fly sheet. You should hook the fly sheet to all 4 corners. Once done, attach the ridge tent pole which goes over the center of the tent. Remember to coax it into the slot rather than using brute force. You should proceed to velcro the fly sheet to the poles (shown on left).
Step 6:
Peg down the guy lines at the sides. This will keep the fly sheet off the tent, making the waterproofing more effective as there will be 2 separate layers.
Step 7:
Attach the magnetic light. The light comes with 2 pieces, the light itself and the metal base. Adjust the metal base on the outside until you reach a location you would like the light to be. Then slot the light itself to the metal base. We recommend the light to be standing near the seams, to reduce stress on the fabric.The tent with the fly sheet is fully setup as designed.

Depending on what they are made of, they should last for years. Lightweight, fiberglass tent poles are generally seen as the cheapest, and may not last very long depending on the conditions you are camping in. A good alternative is aluminum poles, which are stronger and more stable. The best are carbon fiber poles, which should last for years in adverse conditions, but they also cost more.

The soldiers and aviators, airmen and parachute jumpers did use D-rations for emergency purposes so they would keep up their blood glucose. The D-Rations consisted of chocolate bars, candy, vitamins and gum. The men said they were real life savers on the long hours in the planes and when they ran out of K-rations. Some of the airmen would also grab sandwiches from the mess hall to use with the D-rations. Some managed to get thermoses of coffee too.
