I have been gathering more photos and updating an article that Chris Causley wrote for Military Vehicles Magazine a few years ago.

Does anyone have any more photos of this unusual pattern in use? Apparently, it was being tested in Germany by 2nd Armored Cavalry, around 1979 and into the 1980s.

Here's a monument Chaffee that the 2nd Cav had painted.

Hello,

is there really just photos of the coat?

Not the only one of the full uniform?

Were there also caps or helmet covers in the pattern?

I want to cut a BDU in this pattern but seemingly there are only Owen's pictures and three to four more on the internet ...?
