Look closely at the soldiers right leg (left of picture). You can see the electroshock device used to punish him for improper trigger discipline hidden under his pantsleg, just above his boot.HooDoo wrote:more pictures:

What I don't get is from what i remember from that article, they fielded the ACU with soldiers in a stryker brigade, and people training somewhere room clearing. Would it not have made sense to put it on someones back who isn't stateside, and who walks everywhere / jumps out of planes etc..?

Couldnt hold back... but wasnt that "uniform" originally designed for a Richard Simmons fat boy program...???
The idea that it suppose to save money by using velcro.. what the hell are they thinking... your adding material.. the two pieces of velcro that have to be sewn on to attach name tapes/ badges/ and then the ones to close pockets...
All they really needed to do was relocate pockets for "field" uniforms.. (I never used my shirt pockets with RBA and LCE in the way. Hell why not come up with a better foot gear, one with shanks that dont break.
