Okay, perhaps this peice of equipment shouldn't be commando specific, but it should ranged combat specific. It should be a schematic reward via quest, much like the Imperial Military Ruck Sack schematic you can get from the themepark.
Basically, all modern soldiers(myself among them) wear a standard Load Bearing Vest. This vest, as seen here:

Includes many pockets and compartments for magazines and grenades. Having extra ammo and grenades easily accessible makes it easier, and much faster, for a soldier to reload and begin firing again or to throw another grenade rather than digging through a ruck sack to get at that stuff. I mean, this idea has been around ALONG time. It's like a bandolier almost, except even more so.
Rather than sockets, this LBV should cut grenade and heavy weapon speed(including the FT and HAR) in half. It should be wearable over armor also, and in conjunction with the military pack so both can be worn at the same time.
I don't know, another silly idea.

We used something similar in the Swiss Army, ours only had 4 pockets though.
I'll be damned if I can find a picture of the bloody thing

that would be sweet! we could have our little bottles of vasarian brandy where the canteens go, heh heh.
oh, about the Swiss Army, those guys deterred the Nazis, so i wouldn't mess with them. it takes alot of guts and hard work to make neutrality work.

Actually, I think this would be a best a master marksman certification. Its meant for all ranged professions.
