It seemed like every time we went to the field in the Summer someone would get chew for wearing temperate ones out the field for wear the heavy uniform when he should have set of the light ripstop to wear.
4 sets of each huh. That amusing since at during Basic Training we were issued 2 sets of temperate and 2 set of ripstop woodland. The only time we seen desert camo which came in choco-chip then was about a week before we deployed overseas...lol

Yeah, this was from the regimental commander that wound up relieved due to poor command climate. But to be fair, I couldn't bitch: I was one of those who had to have sharp uniforms, 2 sets of the pricey A's, dress blues and whites. Never did get mess, but I did think long and hard about it.
