Stonewall for Nat/CC. I'd buy that tomorrow if it was authorized.

That looks eerily like Viet Nam-era fatigues.

They are OD ACU's, they took a second for me to realize it too.

Mostly it's the green color, and the slant pockets. That's basically an ACU in OD. I've worn jungles before as well (back when CAP authorized them), and I'd take jungles over the ACU any day.

And I'd take any color ACUs (OD, Woodland, Multi-Cam, Tiger Stripe, etc.) over ABUs.  I've worn ABUs and ACUs and ACUs win hands down.  Other than color, ABUs are just like BDUs except hotter and heavier.  Oh, and the pen pockets.  But of course, Eclipse is rectifying that issue as I type.

Right?  Eclipse?

You got a picture of this thing yet?

I'm going to be busy the next few days, but I need to un-"USCAP" my field uniforms so when I'm doing that I'll take a shot at the non-standard pen pocket somewhere.  And post a pic if it comes out ok.

I Know!  I miss my pickle suit in all truth.
