We've used the Sea to Summit Ultra Sil Compression Sacks on multiple trips a year for over 10 years and haven't been able to break them yet. They are also among the lightest compression sacks we've found. I don't have any recent experience with the mil sleep system, but I remember it being somewhat bulky compared to commercial bags. So I'd recommend getting a large size (20 liters) if you decide to go with one.
Sea to Summit
For my summer ruck at work, I keep the green bag in an OR Airpurge Compression Sack. In the winter I swap out to a Marmot down 0 degree bag.

Tortuga, how small does it get?
When you're done saying what you're saying, stop saying it.
So how did it go?
Damnit. I am alive and well and I learned so much that the idea of writing it all down is daunting.
We ended up covering 48 miles in 3.5 days. I severely rolled my ankle 15 miles in and was pretty miserable for the remaining time. I was unable to ascend the final 2500 feet to see the wall as the descents were perilous on my bum ankle.
I learned a ton, and it is a disservice that I have not passed it on to anyone else, especially to those who offered so much advice to me- I apologize. I will do a thorough write up in the next week.
