PaulS Posted July 28, 2019 Share #1 Posted July 28, 2019 I recently purchased this six color bdu shirt which has a lining in the upper back of shirt. Was this an early pattern? The shirt also has an EGA on upper left pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spec6-spencer Posted July 28, 2019 Share #3 Posted July 28, 2019 Hi, iirc was that an early version. But the lining was often cut out because of the heat jam at this part of the back. After Desert Storm i saw many coats without the lining in our local surplus stores. Looks good for an '84 dated coat ☺ Lars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap Camouflage Pattern I Posted July 30, 2019 Share #4 Posted July 30, 2019 I have heard it called a sweat shield, not sure if that is right. It was deleted in 1990 along with the elbow reinforcement to speed up production Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
