Yeah, check my post in the first page of Reference Pics in the Canadian section.

RCMP. That's the same combat shirt I saw at Peerless Garments here in Winnipeg. The design is a direct copy to the current issue CADPAT combat shirt, except that it is solid tan rather than any sort of camouflage. The patch is a dark background, Canadian flag with "POLICE" underneath it, exactly as pictured in the photo.

Nice find, didn't know if there were any pics out there of the Mounties at work in Afghaniland.

Edit: Dude on the right is CF Military Police, if I'm not mistaken. Looks like a SIG Sauer P225 in a Safariland 6004 holster.

-Skeletor-, Lerch,
Thank you very much for identifying these non-issue vests for me!

[warbird]

Here's the picture I was talking about. Mike is right, you can clearly see the top and bottom, not a flight suit.

Army Issue has some of the tan cf pants in the store, if you're looking.

Were you doing the same thing I did? Send it to me and I'll get it done for ya if it's not fubar.

Got my BFT on Friday and going to Suffield next month, so I figured I'd repack my ruck...still my favorite piece of kit.




I'm gonna check out grabbing a new mat when I stop at Wheeler's this weekend.

My best bud grabbed one of those jump rucksacks for his CAP this summer. Wore it for a 15km sack march and fooking love it. (Though I am Navy, so will never touch one after I grad and get my commission =D)

The shirt is FUBAR, I gave up on it after like three hours of cursing at my sewing machine this weekend. Gonna use the material for modding a Tan flight suit

lol, well, I enjoy my bulging biceps and rock hard abs (well, not so much the abs, I enjoy beer to much lol)

I'm only staying MARS until a new certain CANSOFCOM unit starts raising from the rest of the CF. Plus I've got it set in my mind that I wanna do boarding party, so gonna keep hitting the gym even tho I am supposed to be gaining a nice beer belly.

Don't hold your breath.
However, if you go go somewhere purple, be sure to recruit five guys for the navy on your way out.

[Ace of Spades©]

lol, already been pimping the navy for a year now. Gotta raise the numbers so I can slip out unnoticed =)

Knowing how things work for navy officers, I'm not expecting to see CMCR Tan until I'm like a Subby or Lt. and like 28 years old, outta my prime =/

I just cried a little inside.

[Ace of Spades©]

lol, well I will be... 22 by the time I'm a Acting SubLt, 23 for Sub LT, 27 ish for Lt.... so yea, pretty close. Still mighty young, but lol...

[airborneboi69]

all this is is the old style combats like are od one except they are retro fitted with pockets and a rcmp patch is sewn on the top

saw lots of em on my tour with the omlt pomlt use to come on patrol with us quite often , but most of the police were municipal police from toronto









QUOTE=CanuckKwan;1082018]different picture/angle, but that's actually the guy I saw in the picture that gave me the idea. I guess I thought it was a flight suit 'cause I didn't see his shirt bloused over the pants, but civpol usually tuck them in anyways, right?

guess I should keep my eyes out for some decent cheap tan combats. hard to find flightsuits in my size anyways, lol...[/QUOTE]

My rifle;



I had the Elcan in the cab the entire time.

My truck;



RQMS Bin Truck, so it has the cage superstructure under the cover. Very nice and fast, and I think one of the few vehicles to come back without any damage

The rest;











Funny story, I was in that shitter about 30 minutes prior, just hoping that I wasn't going to fall face down with a load on my back...it also fell door down...
