Irish Uniforms

[mugs]

I was told yesterday by a freind in the know. That personnel forming part of the EU Battle Group and goin over to take part in activities with them our to recieve some new version of the DPM uniform.

It is the first i heard about this, it appartently is to be similiar in design of the swedish camoflague scheme.

It is currently been trialed/delivered to one infantry unit in eastern command (not in DFHQ) but elsewhere and there some patch aswell which inticacts the each countrys army i.e. a small Irish DPM patch on the uniform.

This is all the information i recieved on this has anybody else heared about this?

BMax.

That sound a bit stupid, I mean how long have they had the DPM? Maybe they're getting the swedish M90 uniform for their time in the EU battlegroup?:confused: :confused: :confused:

I think someone was yanking your crank bm.We have worked alongside the finns in Kosovo.We never changed our uniform.We have worked alongside the swedes in Liberia.We never changed our uniform either.There are photos of the other countries in the nbg on military photos.net,they never changed their uniform either.I think it would be a very costly exercise to keep changing the pattern everytime we start working alongside another army .No.i would say a ball hop.

oh, but i was so looking forward to feeling victimised by the pdf by not getting their shiny new foreignly fashionable dpm and having to make do with the normal irish dpm stuff. now what will rdforra meaninglessly complain about

on the same veign, are we going to get the same light weapons as the finns or swede's and adopt their tactics aswell.
also, purely in the spirit of international co-operation you understand, can we do an exchange of some of their women for ours?

Anybody going to Sweden won't be getting a weapon. It was in the Cosantoir recently in that article about surviving in the cold.

The NSR are already unique. They have a smock that nobody else has.
