It’s all about kick-backs and another form of corporate welfare. What is the justification for a “new camo”? Is the most recent “digital” camo ineffective? No. Is this new pattern better at concealing? No.

Here’s the skinny... Every time the camo pattern is changed, and the deadline set for changeover, every uniform has to be replaced. Most of the cost is on the back of the soldiers themselves - who have to pay for the new uniforms. And keep in mind - the majority of soldiers make less than the loony Left’s definition of a “living wage”.

Yep. Another way to stick it to the troops.
