Your unit has them, but all of the supply guys and vehicle mechanics in Support Company are "using" them.

I just spit water all over my room when I read that. Truer words have never been spoken.

I mounted my PEQ-5 on my Ops-Core so now where ever I look, my laser AND my Contour are right on target.

Yours didn't?!

Guess my ops weren't nearly cool enough

So we can salivate and day dream about having gear that nice.....short of buying it ourselves or being Recon/MARSOC, the average Marine grunt isn't gonna get or see shiny combat toys like theirs. Its a cruel world sometimes....

Ah, yes...but did you also have velcro?

Don't know if he's a Marine, but he's a photo finding guru.

Sigh....

If the photos were taken by a Marine Sgt, how do we know they are Army SOF?

 

[Salt USMC]

Totally anecdotal, Free, but all the MARSOC guys I saw during my summer Afghan vacation this year wore the upgraded old style woodland cammies. Granted, I didn't see a whole lot of them, but they had a compound near-ish ours and thats all I ever saw them wear.

SOTF-WEST has been run by Marines for the past few years. There's been some SF teams that work under them. Marine SOTF = Marine support = Marine COMCAM.
