What is the ECWCS sleeping bag system?

Patrol Bag (Green): Lightweight summer bag rated to about 50°F
Intermediate Bag (Black): Insulated bag for colder conditions, rated to about 10°F
Bivy Cover (Woodland Camo): Waterproof/breathable outer shell that protects the other bags.
It is commonly refred to as a 4 piece system which includes the stuff sack.
Can individual components be used separately?
Yes, each sleeping bag (Patrol and Intermediate) can be used independently depending on the temperature, and the bivy cover can be used on its own as a minimalist shelter or to add protection to any sleeping bag.
