I actually like BDUs a whole lot better than ABUs. And also we aren't trying to hide from anybody so why worry about the uniform. :clap:
Interesting statement considering that the woodland camo pattern is more effective than the ABU pattern.

The woodland pattern is pretty. It is a more interesting pattern than the ABUs
