yep! They're located just down the street from me here in good ol' Military City, USA ! :) If your local, save on shipping and go in, they have a great store right off Military and Hwy 90. :)

Those are good sources as well when/if they have BDUs in stock.  This topic was to put out another source for BDUs, outside of BDU.com, Vanguard, etc.  Members want sources for BDUs at good prices, and lets face it $60 for a full set of BDUs is not bad and these are new BDUs on top of it.

Official word last night from my Wing CC, who sits on the Uniform Board on ABU's: forget it. Not going to happen for at least another 3 years.

That's "official"? If it's not in writing, published in an official channel, then nothing is official.

It's not hearsay. This is from the CC's mouth to my ears.
