On June 1st the Army was supposed to release the hot weather uniform according to ALARACT 027/2019. I haven't heard anything else about it, can't find it at clothing and sales, not online and most people aren't tracking this. Does anyone know where it stalled? Why can't I get them?

If history repeats itself, and the army is fielding a new hot weather uniform, then the next war will be in freezing cold conditions, somewhere like: Alaska, Newfoundland, Greenland, Norway, Sweden, Russia, etc.

I'm currently here at Fort Benning Sergeant. They were supposed to release them June 1st here and at 2 in Hawaii. However when I went Saturday to buy them they told me it's delayed and they don't know when it'll be available.. Bummer.

To little fanfare, Army Chief Of Staff GEN Mark Milley authorized the Improved Hot Weather Combat Uniform as an optional purchase item, last October. According to ALARACT 027/219, beginning 1 June, Soldiers may purchase it from Clothing Sales Stores and wear it in lieu of the OCP Army Combat Uniform.

Paragraph 2 of ALARACT 027/2019 reads:"ON 26 OCTOBER 2018 THE CHIEF OF STAFF OF THE ARMY APPROVED THE IMPROVED HOT WEATHER COMBAT UNIFORM (IHWCU) AS AN OPTIONAL PURCHASE ITEM. AFTER 1 JUNE 2019, SOLDIERS CAN PURCHASE THE IHWCU FROM MILITARY CLOTHING SALES STORES FOR WEAR IN LIEU OF THE OPERATIONAL CAMOUFLAGE PATTERN (OCP) ARMY COMBAT UNIFORM." Soldiers can purchase the IHWCU from military clothing and sales stores means that Soldiers CAN purchase these from clothing and sales in addition to potentially receiving these as a piece of TA-50.
