Good Article from army.mil about the new MultiCam uniform. "Soldiers deploying to Afghanistan to get new MultiCam uniforms, boots, gear" Has good pics of the new uniform and boots. http://www.army.mil/-news/2010/03/02/35184-soldiers-deploying-to-afghanistan-to-get-new-multicam-uniforms-boots-gear/

I looked into this site to see just what the untucked version of the ODU would look like.. well the photo is so dark that all you see is a guy dressed in blue. It really is no help at all...thank you.

Comment on Navy Announces Two New Working Uniforms (Type II and Type III)

Finally, a suitable uniform for all of our sailors working on the ground and non-traditional environments. The public is generally unaware of how many sailors are currently deployed on the ground in support of combat operations. This uniform is a step in the right direction, considering the Navy's dirt sailors have been wearing the generic tricolor desert uniform for 20 years now.
Why are we still keeping the old tricolor though? Wouldn't it just be easier, and more practical, to eventually issue the NWU type II to all sailors taking on an assignment in desert environments?

Comment on Navy accelerting Enlisted Service Uniform issue to Sailors

Looks like the Navy had not learned from the experiences in the Vietnam War and Adm Zumwalt's change in uniforms. Back then everybody looked like airline pilots. It ruined the Navy. Enlistment went down, down, down. We shall see.

I retired from the USN a mere 15 years ago as a CDR and former CO. I'm in San Antonio now and the other day encountered a sailor who appeared to be impersonating a Marine. But no, it was a sailor in the latest round of USN uniform changes. Yikes! And then blue camies - thought only the Air Force was getting that weird! Poor old USN -- what have ye done? For the fleet, looks like every day is Halloween. So sad.

This is great. Thanks for the info. This is the best gear list I have found thus far- others recommend entirely too much excess. Good job!
