Nice set norge....
And yes summer arrved, no snow!!!!!! :lol:

Have you tried to get the "NOS" MOLLE II gear(from SDS) in woodland cammo??? This is the upgrade of the one you use and with your gear you can have the new 90's and up to date look, pre ACU.... :wink:
They sell plenty surplus of those @ ebay!

I got my 3day SDS backpack with 2 mre/sustainment pouches and 2 gp/canteen pouches as part of my gear. At least a backpack I can use comfotably... :mrgreen:
Excuse my "hotlinkin'"...I don't have a camera or pics to post,these were the pics I saved when I bought it from ebay.... :wink:
Peace!

Very nice pics. Couple of critiques. The 1st Aid/Compass pouch on your left shoulder/LBE is upside down. That is "hollywood". Why? Because when you are low-crawling thru the mud, forest whatever, the flap could come unsnapped much easier, thus loosing the contents. Also, no face camo. Otherwise, very nice collection, and strip that unit identification off your BDU's. You don't want the enemy to know your unit, in case of capture. :P 8)
After the Chicken and the Egg, came the "Omelet"!

Nice set, Norge! As the guys said, I suggest you to try the ACU. I'm not thrilled about pattern, but the pockets on suit seems to be designed by the best. I'll try to find same suit in other patterns (Digicam best suit my tastes). Until then, two pics:
