  • Bootnecks new Camo Pattern

    HM Royal Marines are branching out and going to Crye Gen4 Multicam Uniforms.
    The Royal Marines Commandos are to get a new American uniform in Crye Precision MultiCam camouflage pattern to replace Britain's Multi-Terrain Pattern.
    "Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.

      They really are asserting their own identity. I bet the RAF regiment will be chomping at the bit to do the same.
      'He died who loved to live,' they'll say,
      'Unselfishly so we might have today!'
      Like hell! He fought because he had to fight;
      He died that's all. It was his unlucky night.
