I agree with AKSAR, the specific loadout is very dependent on the environment (both natural and geopolitical) and the mission. Though I have heard that those frag 'nades are great for discouraging the bears that ignore bear spray...!

Seriously though, to me the value of that linked article is not so much the specific gear loadout but the 1st/2nd/3rd line organizational thinking it displays. I think it's pretty smart. Just substitute the specific items needed for the environment, while thinking "what if I get separated from my pack?".
