Nah, digi cammies weren’t gulf war. Dudes wore old deserts in Fallujah, IIRC.
I did boot in '09, and we qual’d ironsights, and got to SOI in August 2009 and we had ACOGs. I believe boot went ACOGs shortly after that. We also had A2s in boot in '09, and A4s in SOI. Full digi was sometime in 2004, and Fallujah was earlier that year, and so you saw guys in old cammies and digi.
… In my defense, I did not have my glasses on, and… well, the camo worked.
Fuck.
Ok, ok so… by your uh, constraints, this would have been basically more like mid 00s?
04 or later, but… prior to 09?
And, by old deserts… you mean the ole ‘chocolate chip camo’?
… I guess if you’re willing to induldge my mil-nerd questioning… do you know if the Army and Marines are mostly swapped over to some variant of MultiCam now?
Or does the digi stuff still exist in large numbers?
… Or am I just wildly off base with that line of questions?
Ha, I’m out for over a decade at this point, and I’m kind of an “I did my time” Marine. I do have some friends still in, who I’m fairly certain they’re still wearing MARPAT digi cammies.

Oh, fuck you’re completely right.
I somehow totally glossed over the digi cam.
