Backpacker since the 1970s here. Recommend you substitute this for your sleeping bag and this for your shelter, OP. Delete the hammock and extra blankets. Add a simple foam pad to insulate you from heat losses into the ground. That combo will save you about $9, and will keep you warmer.
Select a real pack with a real hip belt from this list. Get black or gray. "Tacticool" packs will attract too much attention from local law enforcement if SHTF. Also if you want to test your gear on a backpacking trip (and you should), you will look like a more sane person on the trail. If you want gear that blends into the environment check out hunting gear, not paramilitary gear.
I use a super cheap foamy pad kinda like this one and an Enlightened Equipment Enigma quilt. For shelter I carry the Six Moon Designs Skyscape Scout. Wish I could afford the Skyscape X... saving my pennies for that one maybe in another year or two.
No joke, the dish rags I use are paper thin. I wish I could find an example of them on Amazon. Maybe I'll get spunky later and upload a picture.
While we're recommending gear, I highly recommend snagging one of these. It's weighs 0.4oz, clips to anything, puts out a tremendous amount of light, practically indestructable, and the battery lasts forever. I keep one on my keychain all the time and it's my backup flashlight if my head lamp were to croak.
Also, your day pack is really heavy. What do you really plan on carrying? Something like this would save you a full half pound.
