Scotty2Hotty Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Multicam is going to start fielding in the Afghanistan AO shortly: http://www.military.com/news/article/army-to-field-new-uniforms-for-afghanistan.html?col=1186032325324&ESRC=army-a.nl http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b363/deltlaboy/800px-Army_mil-2007-02-02-091945.jpg Thank God, because ACU's are only worth a damn at night, and personally a horrible pattern design.

Scotty2Hotty Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 I've seen some pics here and there, but haven't been in the MNCI AO since 06. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh8sti Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 i totally agree. The AO ACOG with the 5.56mm shroud helped protect my platoon from the IED's and the OSA with the 40mm nade tosser of those sheet heads. But when i took out my barret .50 and started raining 685 grain rounds down on thier asses they had no choice to get back in their MNCI AO and eat MRE's until i was finished going hooyah. AMIRITE?

Scotty2Hotty Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Ahhhahahaha... when are you guys gonna make up your minds? ACU's were a horrible idea to begin with, but I think the Multicam will be a nice replacement IF it actually happens. I still hate the beret personally, and never have liked it.

Drewhop Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Is the guy on the far left playing COD:4????? Looks like he is using a 360 controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Lee Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Looks like he is using a 360 controller. Doesn't look like anything we have (controller AND eye-piece). We have XBox controllers for our Pacbots, but they still plug into an OCU and are not all that portable. Then again, our EOD program gets the left over funds from everyone else...

On top of that the color distinctions are enough to know the difference. But Gen.Shinseki at the time deemed it necessary for the entire US Army to wear them, and personally that was a mistake. I've never earned one, had the opportunity and turned it down. So, that's why I don't enjoy wearing something that wasn't earned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
