Forum: General Stuff Topic: The Army... so adorable. started by: GORDON Posted by GORDON on Mar. 10 2014,20:48
Just saw an army recruting commercial. Those yahoos were wearing "Marpat" camouflage uniforms, which is short for "Marine Pattern." The Marines invented that shit. I actually had to look it up because I hadn't heard the army adopted it.Now the army is wearing it. Cute. < http://kitup.military.com/2014....mo.html > QUOTE That’s right, the Navy Working Uniform type II & III desert and woodland pattern will be included in the overall discussion of the Army’s replacement of the UCP. And apparently the Air Force got left out of the service-wide disccusion (sic). Apparently there was no need for "golf course" camo pattern. Posted by Leisher on Mar. 11 2014,06:42
There's something to be said for being smart enough to not need camo...

I heard the best argument for the AF as being the branch of service where the officers get shot at, but the grunts generally don't.

I suppose baggy BDUs are more comfortable and practical, but damned if they don't look...sloppy.
