That is the irish dpm except there is no tricolour on the guys left arm. The rank marking of the 3*on the left is also irish. I think i've seen that picture online somewhere captioned as irish.Comment

its pretty obvious the lads are irish...The trick to pet names is a combination of affectionate nouns. Honeybun. Sugarpie. Kittentits.Comment

British and Irish DPM are completely different patterns - Irish DPM is a standard amoeba pattern, while British DPM uses a brush stroke design. Also, Irish DPM is Green/Brown/Black/White, while British DPM is Green/Brown/Black/YellowComment

Theirs not to reason why,

The image was first seen on the Lockheed Martin Javelin website, and I think I posted a link to it on the ultraboard predecessor to IMO sometime in 2001! It's from the pre-purchase trials of the weapon.
