My pal and I are taking some long-awaited furlough from UN peacekeeping operations. We are going to explore the wilds with another friend, and I am making a list of all the things we will need. So far, I have the following:

Mug, salt, a kayak, a vest, inkpot, pal, tent, ammo, Occasional Recuperational Break Regulations, ale, rifle, balm, a ham….

Just two questions:
What item (excluding essential liquids) will appear twice in the list, once completed?
What is the name of our very lovely female companion?

You have all the information you need to answer both questions.

Near, but not in the gold, Dej!

However my hat comes off to you for ingenuity!
