I will be wearing the MultiCam until next year when the OCP craze is over and I get my clothing allowance. The Army already spent the money to issue them to me, so I will honor that until they are no longer serviceable. Then I will spend next years CA on OCP, I already used this years to update my ASUs and get some of the new PTs.

I'll buy one new OCP per year, other than that, I'll be wearing multicams. No point in buying it all up front if I can wear out the 10 sets of multicams I already have.

As a reserve, TPU soldier, I will wait until my unit orders them in 2016.

One question I have for AC..is the clothing allowance enough to cover even one set, with boots? I don't recall my CA being enough to cover even a new set of boots when I was AC back in 1990

well it depends on how long you have been in but over 4 years it should be plenty to transition without any other cost. but your right one years worth will probably not cover everything that you are going to need to change over everything.

As far as I know it depends on what rank you are and years in service. After 16 years total I get roughly 350 to 400 when my CA hits. So with that being said, it may also depend on component. Active vs. Reserve
