For anyone confused: he has the M81 woodland camo on the kevlar because, when the war was going on, a majority of units that were infantry (in both the USMC and army, were issued woodland pattern stuff, its not a mistake on the content creators part, it’s entirely accurate to the timeline being displayed

@@Ren-lx8wv I never got Vietnam era equipment. I was an 11B. The equipment was woodland because most of the environments in the world are green not tan. So naturally DoD issued the most common camo pattern to be used. The problem was that there was an equipment shift from Alice to Molle at that time. They hadn’t managed to ramp up the production of the DCU equipment, because they were still in the process of equipping the military with the common pattern. And DCU never truly kicked off in full force through the equipment because ACU was in the process of being fielded and would come online before the equipment shift to DCU. You saw an increase in DCU equipment issued from the RFI from late 2004 to mid 2006. By then, ACU was able to be fielded.

Honestly loved the mix matched camo. In my opinion it breaks up your silhouette better than all the same camo. Throwing off the perception of the eyes. I always broke up my kit with different camos or solid colors that were allowed under regs. Think SSgt. James from 'Hurt Locker', as I was issued UCP.

Missing oakleys half jackets, Blackhawk CQB Belt, combat earplugs(green part thrown away/ use yellow end so you can hear), benchmade folder clipped anywhere you like. MRE spoon slid into any loop you like. Camel backs work and I added a pouch for NVG’s and a pouch for goodies. Carabiner on vest to hang gloves with 550 cord loops on each to hang from carabiner/ D ring. Stash a few MRE snacks in your pockets and your set to go. Good start for pre 2007.
