I expect the velco Div patches will be along soon enough to fill the spot on the other sleeve.

The field ones will all be olive green for each div, nein?
 
You are obviously not ambitious enough. The same people who thought that WWII rank insigia for officers was a good idea are probably going to mine the Great War for inspiration next.

These are the patches you will probably be sticking on your "Improved Combat Uniforms"

So the only element that gets within knife-fighting distance of the enemy is the one issued with Glo-in-the-Dark gear?  To wear on their camouflage?

Boggled am I.

Just take the patches off when knife fighting?  ;D

Hey at least you guys don't have to buy your own...

Speaking of which...

<tangent>

Since you can strip 'em off (being velcro-backed and all), are flying suit patches still limited to three or less colours or, like the rest of the world, gone back to full-colour patches which every Sqn kit shop has anyway?

Either all-green or "subdued*" colour.


*subdued - not to include phosophescent or day-glo colours.

I think that we should go back to this dress while in garrison, but only if I get to start wearing my smock again.  ;) And being a short *** is a pain in the *** when it comes to sizes of clothing.

Those Dirty Sanchez's are EPIC!!!!!!!!

A Dirty Sanchez is a sexual situation where a man is laying some pipe doggy-style, and while in the midst of sex he inserts his finger in the womans angry spider and then smears his finger across her upper lip, giving her a thin shit moustache. This is the Dirty Sanchez.

I think you may have your terms misunderstood. If not, please explain how this equates to jump smocks.

Trust a mud monkey (with all due respect ;D) to know the true meaning of that term. As a Naval Officer and a Gentleman I assumed the Stalin /Porn Star style mustaches were called the "Dirty Sanchez"!

Now here is a man working hard to make sure his DG gets a proper management bonus, well done!
 
This just in: After much prodding by my chain of command I attempted to roll up the sleeves on my ICU.

I had to remove the pen from the sleeve and stick it LOOSE in the chest pocket (CF98 just waiting to happen) but I don't think they look too bad.

Now, I need some really cool patches to match all the high speed stuff I do.
 
After wearing the new uniform for a couple of months now, I can definitely say the big patches get in the way sometimes. Whether it be getting caught on my tactical vest and coat sleeves or bending your arms certain ways it gets in the way. Other than that I like the new uniform so far, except I battle to even get pens all the way down in the pen pocket.
