    Old LBV back in use in Afghanistan (now Arid CADPAT)?!

    Well, the new TV has been IN USE since at very least May 03.  I'm hoping they put at least a year or two of thought into it. So if they were already working on a new one why go backwards?  Some may say a knee jerk to Op Apollo.  If they were paying attention they would have noticed more than...

    Old LBV back in use in Afghanistan (now Arid CADPAT)?!

    Why is it knee jerks always lead to more crap? I would rather have the new TV in AR camo with a legdrop or something.  What a waste of money and about 50 steps back.

    What is the best style of applying face Cam?

    After an ex, my girlfriend took some kind of make up remover to my face.  It worked quite well.  But as fat as application goes, everyone will find a pattern that works well for they're face.  I've noticed a lot of the PPCLI tend to use diagonal stripes with black on the high points and green on...

    What is the best style of applying face Cam?

    Darker colours on the high features, Medium on the meduim, light on the low points.  And yes, with your fingers.  Get a Mirror  or try and do a buddy's for him, he wont even notice the moustache and glasses you put on him. :dontpanic:

    Ive been hearing a lot of chatter about a 16" heavy barrell coming out for the A2.  I was just wondering if anyone has seen it and if they have more info/pictures it would be appreciated.

    Pacing Beads

    "ranger" or pacing beads are a piece of doubled over para cord with 13 arts and crafts beads threaded through them and seperated into 2 groups.  The 1st group ( top or bottom dosent matter) has 9 beads.  The 2nd having 4.  The idea behinind them is that when marching on a bearing, the soldier...

    Issued Tac Vest

    Look on the bright side, it's not like we carry our gear in a bucket.  But I totallly agree we need something that is interchangable.  At very least for the Cbt arms.  The only real gripes I have about the vest is the lack of room for ammo, and my unit has us putting the rain gear in the C9...

    Best Camo Fatigues?

    Pink bunny suit?  I think MARPAT has the LCF and the concealment factor down to a "T".  It's got that extra bit of brown that I thought CADPAT was missing.  Ive seen a few pictures of the USMC in training down south and it seemed to work quite well, but for some reason they were all wearing...

    Bayonet obsolete? Not yet, apparently -

    So what do we do then?  Can't get a silenced weapon, impact technique if im lucky enough to have a shovel and hit that small target, unarmed technique, but that needs loads of training time and an unskilled opponent, and highly skilled operator. Then there's the knife technique, well too much...

    Bayonet obsolete? Not yet, apparently -

    I heard from a few different locals on roto that the placement of bayonets on our vest  is actually quite intimidating.  Besides if I ever did run out of ammo in a combat situation, I would rather be fighting with a bayonet than my gerber.
