I've already heard rumours of a switch in uniforms dude.Originally posted by scabstermooch:I would like to point out that although the boots seem out of place, it is in fact made in that colour for a cunning reason.
Imagine for a moment a soldier standing in a house in front of the sofa or a similarly patterned wallpaper. You won't see the boots! Why? because we all know that in the west, they always use parquet flooring! Hence the boots are designed to blend in with the parquet flooring.
Those westerners are very clever aren't they?! Think of the lives this would save. I have a mind to remove the picture and submit it for WITs during reservist.
for our urban ops battalion?Originally posted by LazerLordz:I've already heard rumours of a switch in uniforms dude.
not sure but it was hinted for a more general switch or choice. Could be choice (for relevant units), because having a urban camo for all troops is too costly.Originally posted by beavan:for our urban ops battalion?
I heard something like that as well. Could be a digital print. And the base color might actually match the ugly name tag kaki as well. *Crosses finger*Originally posted by LazerLordz:I've already heard rumours of a switch in uniforms dude.
And the rank might shift position. Hopefully not to the shoulder.Originally posted by Shotgun:I heard something like that as well. Could be a digital print. And the base color might actually match the ugly name tag kaki as well. *Crosses finger*
Heard another rumour that the rank will move to the front of the chest, like the US Army.Originally posted by Shotgun:3G army. We will fight in our birthday suit with advanced camouflage paint. =D
I voted for collar ranks for WOSEs when they did a survey last time. Unlikely to happen since vocational badge is now at collar. =/
eh?Originally posted by LazerLordz:Heard another rumour that the rank will move to the front of the chest, like the US Army.

Ya - pesky yanks sleep everywhere!!!Originally posted by fudgester:In all honesty, I didn't realise that there was someone proning down on the couch at first.

I thought the US army had ranks on the shoulders? I think it is the British Army who has ranks on the chest for Soldiers.
Edit: btw that guys looks very gay. But we know he is not gay though because all gays have good dress sense and this guy clearly hasn't grasped the concept of colour coordination.

wtf, simi logic?Originally posted by scabstermooch:Edit: btw that guys looks very gay. But we know he is not gay though because all gays have good dress sense and this guy clearly hasn't grasped the concept of colour coordination.
I thought I said he wasn't gay? Anyway, you've got it wrong. I see a flying ice-cream cone on the bottom and a casserole pot on top. I dunno what is depicted in the middle but that is not surprising as I am not a professional chef. Notice also the 'C' depicted on his capbadge and the icing sugar dusted over the Blue backing.Originally posted by relackjack:this gay is pathfinder and airborne qualifed..
