When does one use Scrounging?

Re: When does one use Scrounging?
I've noticed that most of the military templates (in GURPS Space, but useable for any setting, space or not) have Scrounging.
I suppose it makes sense. If you're spending most of your time in war-torn territory, then it's going to take some searching or inspired creativity to secure things that you'd take for granted in peacetime. |

EDIT: When I was in Iraq, we set up the internet and local area network for our company's barracks from 75% scrounged components. |
