Top line (as the bottom line would make Crashkill want to bench press the ACU's off of you) do I think the ACU is crap ...no. I think the pattern is great for a built up enviornment, However I do think that the cut and the pockets are fine. Used them while deployed for over a year and had no problems at all. Would Multi cam be better? In a wood land or jungle envionment yep .....but aint fightin there right now.
Will the army change the pattern hell I dont know....how fast did the black beret go away? ....when will they replace the M-4 ? How about a kit that doesnt fucking smoke you before you get to the OBJ? How about an Uparmor that isnt so under powered that it over heats at the first moutain pass?

SO the bottom line for you would be for you worry about your PLT and the training of the American youth in it before I would worry about buying the latest in gucci kit.......cadet.
