Medium to dark grey are what the African's use - now those guys even scare
the Russians ( have you ever seen them ? - those guys are HUGE and next to
impossible to detect !! )

We wear Desert uniforms and arctic uniforms too post it. Thats just common sense.

I really hate the idea of having to wear a blue uniform personally. Myself, Corran Productions, and redfusion are the ones most affected by this, being as we're Air Force.

I've worn so many uniforms it's crazy, but I don't want to wear this, it is pointless. But that may not be a problem as I am planning on separating from the Air Force and going to US Army Warrent Officer school so I can fly BlackhawkS.

Meh... they say that this won't be mandatory for another 5 years, so I'm not sweating it _too_ badly, I'll probably be separated by then myself (barring something to keep me in doesn't happen in the next 3 years, I shall have done my six in 2006).

Danny

Save yourself a lot of grief; stay in - we did ( we are both retired Warrent-4's )
and we'd still be in if it were not for a faulty Gas Gauge from the Jolly Green
Giants repair crew at Patrick AFB!

at that time, they were phasing out Warrent Officers and we took early retirement
which basically put us on an Injured Reserve list.

I need a non-military opinion: This is my reply to that.


Don't join the military. They lie to get you in. They lie when you're in. They lie when you leave.

Or you die in some godforsaken country with your pants full of shit and your brains in your lap, and your family gets a flag as a LOVELY consolation prize.

while it is true that many people do not like the Military, its been very very good to me and my family so I have no problem with "their lies" and doing in Real Life what cowards can only fear ^^

Only 10% of the Military actually ever make it to the front lines and I've lived there most of my life.

I've recieved more cut's and bruses from Bar Fights than I ever have on the
battle field ^^ - hehe

yup - we were the first to go-in and when the CIA & Marines arrived we usually had done as much damage as nessary for them to come in.

Specail Forces? me? no way! ( those guys are GOD's in my book T_T yikes! )
