Hey Lerch, I realize that you are a Bin Rat now with RHQ Bty, but really do you do any real work?? Or are you now ChairBorne and constantly at your PC??

I think you're partially right. I remember a book on peacekeeping, CF UN troops wearing brit desert DPMs... something like that.

are you sure that wasn't just our airborne regiment? we did have a similar pattern that they wore when the regiment existed.

RECCEGOD & Lerch, I have that same book, your memory is spot on.

The engineers that helped clear Kuwait after GW1 wore Brit DPM. The book is called, "Between the Lines" by Jason McQuarrie.

But that book must be rare as pope shit, cause I can't find anything on google... I must lack proper googling skills...

Random CANSOF guy

This will probably be my loadout for next summer. Wearing a Huang RRV. I'll be getting an Aimpoint with a Wilcox mount soon. I'm not sure if I should wear my headset over or under the balaclava. My C8 isn't exactly complete, but getting there. I'm also debating on using my CP Gear Hydration carrier...I'll be wearing black socks next time

Lerch · December 31st, 2009, 01:07

Needs Safariland or Blackhawk! holster

Otherwise pretty nice, good touch with the coyote rig!

warbird · December 31st, 2009, 01:09

Agreed on the holster part, I'm waiting on funds for that

I'll be going the Safariland way I believe...

Not the best, but I can contribute to the section now.

Rocking the flag

Better pic.
