Does that mean my old cabbage kit will become a collector's item, after all not many about

Plenty of good discussion about this on Arrse if you want to hear what some serving / ex-serving bods think of it.

Not sure I like it myself, but then I'm not in yet

Great how the two endpieces are slouching and looking uneasy and could be 5 mins from 'casing a joint', whereas the middle looks like a swot and couldn't be sticking his chest out further

For a second I thought UKLF was the United Kingdom Liberation Front, here to free us from the tyranny for Chairman Brown!

Whats the new(ish) blocky stuff worn by the americans?

I've seen it in movies and TV and on news footage of american army types.

The only thing I know to call it by is "digital" because thats what it's called in Call of Duty!

[tegwin]

The "digital" stuff the us forces wear is suposed to confuse computerised targeting equipment and shape recognition sofware...


Its a bit of a shape, the UK DPM is pretty unique, we will end up looking like all the rest of them over there... whihc might not be a bad thing!

So friendly fire incidents up then?
