Now that we are starting to see Soldiers wearing the Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCPs) how do you feel about it? I know that this is the 3rd uniform I've had to pay for not including the change to ASUs and the 3rd change in APFUs since I came in, putting the money aside, do you like them?
I was never a big fan of the ACUs, I believe the only environment that they worked well in was gravel pits, but I do feel that this pattern is much better than it's predecessor and I also like the removal of velcro on the pants and the reduction of velcro on the top.
Between the multi cam and OCPs, I do not notice much of a difference within the pattern, but I believe they work much better in training and deployment environments that I have been to. I also believe they are more professional looking than the ACUs and the only change I wish they would have made, was to place the rank back on the collar.

1. What are your thoughts on the new OCP uniform and them not being available all once. 2. Do you think mis-matching them will look silly? 3. Wouldn't it be better to get everything available all at once? 4. Should we now go back to the beret?
