Problem is the FOBBITs and fatties want to look like warriors, and you can't do that in "B's" (or so goes popular opinion).
Army to Recommend MultiCam for Entire Force
- Thread starter Spider6
- Start date
What's the matter with Multicam?
I don't have a clue boss! I think the bulk of the "force" is wondering why we just didn't use multicam or something similiar from the get go!
Roger.
Some might even wonder why we got away from DCUs and woodland pattern in the first place.
And I'm one of them sir!
Stupid people in the Pentagon at DA and DAF.
I don't have anything against multicam. I just hate the attitude that a uniform meant for the field needs to have the ability to also look good in a garrison environment. It just doesn't make sense.
Combat effectiveness comes a distant second to looking good in garrison and you know it. So knock off the rabble-rousing.
If we have to wear field uniforms for garrison type activities, it should look like the below picture, to include the tomahawk:
Not only do I love the tomahawk but the full color FWS-SSI is awesome.

More drama on the ACU. No doubt you have all heard about the survey that is going around for the ASU. For some reason I can't open the link!

I have a general rule of thumb (I don't work for the State Department), one I've never had to practice yet I've developed it for just such a scenario:
If I see a guy wearing a tomahawk, I'm not going to ask WHY he is wearing the tomahawk lest I become one of his reasons.

Major Rogers' Standing Orders:
1) All Rangers are to be subject to the rules and articles of war; to appear at roll-call every evening, on their own parade, equipped, each with a Firelock, sixty rounds of powder and ball, and a hatchet, at which time an officer from each company is to inspect the same, to see they are in order, so as to be ready on any emergency to march at a minute's warning; and before they are dismissed, the necessary guards are to be draughted, and scouts for the next day appointed.
Not the answer but history is your friend.
Or:
I hate Multicam pattern...

Someone please explain to me why each regional command doesnt have the authority to issue whatever combination of uniforms will fit its METTTC dependent needs? Other than the fact that it breaths like bubble wrap in the southern heat and turns yellow like a malaria patient after 6 months ACUs have my vote for general purpose uniform. No sense in wasting more money.
