Could not resist :-) (when I see statements like) :-

" Recalling the "tiger-stripe" camouflage pattern used during the Vietnam
War, but with the distinctive Air Force logo embedded into a color scheme
that preliminary testing indicates may provide better camouflage."

Is the AF going to serve in some blue jungle somewhere?


at the Pristina airport, back in 2001, I noticed the cute blue-pattern,
tiger-like camouflage used by Indian soldiers (similar to the new USAF
one, I suppose).

I wondered about the purpose of this strange BDU, and my answer was: to
blend in the urban environment (I thought grey-pattern would have been
better though).

Could this explanation apply to airmen as well ?
