Does the camo pattern really matter that much these days? Western soldiers on today’s battlefields look like a giant shambling mound of gear. Obviously, you don’t wear green in a brown environment, but how effective are these expensive camo changes?
I’m not saying they shouldn’t have it. If the troops need it, then they need it and that settles it for me.
I’m just curious because I’m ex-navy and I’ve noticed that our Navy now wears blue digi-camo, which will make them stand out like a turd in a punchbowl in every possible situation that a sailor can find himself in, except for when they fall overboard and that’s a bad time to be inconspicuous.
