Infatti se leggi le descrizioni è esattamente il 4th.
@alexdust: è vero , ma molti parlano solo del concorso per l'adozione e nulla più , qui invece ci sono foto reali! :-)
Visualizzazione stampabile
il 4th che intende Henry è la 4th divisione di fanteria, queste foto sono invece della 4th brigata della 10th mountain division.
la divisa ufficialmente si chiama OCP "Operation enduring freedoom Camo Pattern" e non multicam ed è stata adottata e distribuita come si capisce dal nome solo per le truppe inpiegate nell'ambito dell'operazione OEF di cui la maggior parte sono dislocate in Afghanistan.
Che peccato io sono molto affezionato al ACU penso che la userò ancora molto, dovrò rifare tutto da capo prima o poi, ma sono sempre dell'opinione che per la Multicam devo farci un po di occhio, in taglio ACU però non e cosi malvagia!!
per gli amanti del digitale c'è una buona notizia.
la ACU verra modificata, con l'aggiunta di colori verde e marrone.
pero si tratta di fase sperimentale.

Beh devo ammettere che fa la sua gran figura però!!
bhe almeno si son ripresi dallo svarione della ACU!
non vedo l'ora che si iniziano a trovare queste OEF sulla baia a prezzi onesti!
speriamo...per adesso ho ancora troppi dubbi sul tipo di tattico e buffetteria varia che utilizzano...forse in un futuro mooolto lontano penserò ad un setup in multicam. :D

non so voi ma a me sembrano (non dico che lo siano eh,dico solo che sembrano) tanti softgunners in posa..cambia lo sfondo e sono pronte per andare in SAM FOTO NON IN ACTION :sogghigno:
non sono affatto un patito della multicam ma di certo è più efficace dell'ATD nel contesto afghano e già si vede dalle stesse foto
pensavo la stessa cosa che sembrano softgunner fa questo effetto perchè tanti di loro sono giovani dei bambocioni che fanno i bischeri e si divertono a scattare foto in posa ma sono soldati veri io ho la multicam truespec e mi piace molto mi manca il tattico ma non so che metterci....
posto qualcosa anche io:

US Army soldiers in the 2-30 Cavalry Regiment of the 10th Mountain Division search a bedroom of a farmhouse during an overnight air assault mission May 14, 2008 in Baghdad, Iraq. The helicopter mission dropped dozens of soldiers into a farm field in east Baghdad, to look for a possible weapons cache in a nearby farm house suspected of harboring insurgents. No weapons cache was found. Several Iraqi men found sleeping at the farm were detained and questioned for intelligence by the soldiers.

U.S. Army soldiers take in the Korengal Valley in eastern Afghanistan. American forces occupy strategic mountaintop, and take on the Taliban insurgents. While Charlie Battery, 3rd Battalion of the 321 Field Artillery has fired more than 5,900 shells since they deployed to Afghanistan less than a year ago, making it the busiest artillery unit in the U.S. Army, according to military officers. They most often fire in support of Army infantry units fighting Taliban insurgents in the nearby Korengal Valley, which sees some of the heaviest fighting in Afghanistan.

Alpha Company clears houses looking for Taliban or weapons in Sangin, Helmand province, Afghanistan, Tuesday, April 10, 2007. For two years, Helmand province has been looked after by the British part of the NATO forces; however, after many operations, the British left Sangin, and the area was reclaimed by the Taliban. In the effort to secure the road between Sangin and Kajaki, where there is a dam producing enough electricity to power all of Helmand, the British called on the Americans for help. This marked the start of Operation Achilles. There was a massive air assault on southern Sangin, and now slowly, the soldiers are heading north, fighting with the Taliban for every kilometer.

BALAD, Iraq - As the ramp slammed down in the muck, the rain came howling in drenching the men who leaped off the back of the Chinook helicopter. The troopers hurried into the field of sloppy mud where they slipped and slid through the landing zone to reorganize in the pitch-black Iraqi night. Not even the moon was friendly on this mission, which would prove to be a testament to the guts of Army Infantrymen and to the determination of Charlie Company Soldiers to make even the most remote hamlets in the Salah ad-Din province safe from al Qaida's treachery.
Soldiers from Charlie Company, 1st Squadron, 32nd Cavalry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division conducted Operation Helsinki Feb. 15 to clear out al Qaida fighters from an area here that has typically not received much attention from coalition forces.
Helsinki was a combined counter-insurgency operation, which was conducted in partnership with the Iraqi army, to help enable legitimate governmental organizations and to provide security for the citizens in the Bichigan peninsula, said 1st Sgt. Timothy Seeber, Charlie Company First Sergeant.
Seeber called the Bichigan area, west of Balad, an al Qaida safe-haven that AQI flees to in order to avoid being killed or captured. "AQI is on the run here and they know we have the means and mobility to kill or capture them where they hide," said Seeber.
Helsinki began with a pre-dawn air assault into the fertile farmlands of the Bichigan area, which were heavily soaked with the early morning rain. With mud smeared on faces and firearms, Charlie Company Soldiers spent the day moving from house to house questioning residents and searching for AQI weapons caches along with Iraqi army soldiers.
The search turned up two weapons caches and resulted in the apprehension of a suspected AQI operative.
Since Charlie Company moved from FOB Caldwell near the Iranian border in early December, they have been instrumental in capturing three of the Balad area's high value targets and have discovered numerous weapon caches, said Staff Sgt. Tommy Pafford.
Much of the success that Charlie Company has had is due largely to spending a great deal of time out among the people and to the Sons of Iraq movement, which has enabled U.S. and Iraqi forces with quality intelligence about AQI operations in the area, said Pafford.
Spending time outside of the relative comfort of FOB Paliwoda has paid dividends for Charlie Company who often find themselves operating in austere conditions.
"Staying outside the wire overnight in the mud and cold is the norm for us," said Pvt. First Class Michael LaChappelle, who along with his fellow Charlie Company troopers found himself without a helicopter ride back to base on Feb. 15 due to poor weather conditions.
After spending much of Operation Helsinki cold and wet, the "Rock" Soldiers would have to bear the elements under a foggy, black Iraqi sky until the weather improved.
"My guys would walk to the end of this Earth if they were asked to," said Pafford. "They realize that this war is bigger than us."

BAGHDAD, Iraq—While upcoming elections, scheduled for next spring, give many Iraqis a sense of hope in their ability to improve their government and way of life, insurgents view elections as an opportunity to conduct attacks and impose their own agenda.
American Soldiers are hard at work to deny the insurgency any ground within the Istiqlaal area, northeast of the capital, and outlying areas.
Soldiers from 1st Squadron, 7th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division have conducted a series of raids and cache searches in and around Istiqlaal to interdict weapons and explosives trafficking into areas closer to Baghdad.
Throughout this month, U.S. troops worked long days with their partners from the 6th Iraqi Emergency Response Unit and 2nd Brigade, 1st Iraqi Federal Police Division, executing raids and cache searches in the rural Rashidiyah and Fahama areas along the Tigris River.
The combined forces began work early in the morning, arriving at several different agricultural areas while the sun came up. Soldiers and ISF spread out across fields and through groves to search for caches of explosive materials and weapons.
Meticulously, the team searched and cleared over 22 suspected cache sites throughout Rashidiyah and Fahama and searched many target houses.
Partnered teams of Soldiers and IPs established traffic control points everyday to interdict weapons trafficking while others searched populated areas for illegal weapons and worked to arrest wanted insurgents with warrants issued by the Iraqi courts.

Lewis, to their current deployment in the Argandab valley in Kandahar, Afghanistan. “A lot of us went to Basic together, and most of us have been together for a long time. It’s stuff from battle drills, classes, and training – us goofing around. It’s probably the first time a group of us together has seen the collection.”

Spc. Brandon Trentham, Bravo Co., 1-17 Infantry, prepares to leave COB Outlaw in the Argandab valley in Kandahar, Afghanistan. The company generally rotates out to another FOB a kilometer away every five days, always on foot. He estimates that his bag weighs around 50 lbs. – and with his 240 and body armor, he’s probably carrying at least his body weight in gear. “You kinda get used to it,” he said.

Sgt. Jason Hawkins, Bravo Co., 1-17 Infantry, watches the perimeter on patrol shortly after sunrise in the dense orchards and vineyards of the Argandab valley in Kandahar, Afghanistan. During the summertime, the foliage is so dense that visibility is only around 40 ft. when you’re kneeling. Grunts from across several operating areas have compared it to Vietnam – the daily patrols in a thick belt of green, regular gunfights, explosions heard in distance, and the Kiowas overhead – but minus the naplam, of course.

KHOST PROVINCE, Afghanistan – Soldiers located at Combat Outpost Spera partnered with members of the Afghan national army to destroy a multi-room building, used to protect insurgents as they travelled through Khost province, Dec. 18.
U.S. Army 707th Explosive Ordinance Disposal Team out of Fort Lewis, Wash.; 3rd Scout Platoon, Troop A, 1st Squadron, 40th Cavalry, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, out of Fort Richardson, Alaska; and members of the Afghan national army destroyed the multi-room building, nicknamed the "Taliban Hotel," to restrict insurgent freedom of movement and logistic support.
"In theatre, as a whole, my team and I are responsible for the safe mitigation of explosive hazards, ranging from unexploded ordinance to improvised explosive devices," said U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Dennis Speek, 707th EOD team leader. "Our current mission at COP Spera is to explosively destroy a complex known as the 'Taliban Hotel' that is being used by insurgents for safe haven while conducting attacks in the vicinity of COP Spera."
Securing the surrounding area is the main priority of the 707th EOD Team and ANA.
"I am tasked with conducting border patrols to deny insurgent weapon and supply smuggling capabilities," said U.S. Army 1st Lt. Kevin Jewell, Jr., platoon leader for the 3rd Scout Platoon. "Along with that task comes mentorship and partnership with ANA counterparts to create a safer environment for the people of Afghanistan."
The destruction of the "Taliban Hotel" helps show the people of Afghanistan that insurgent forces are not tolerated in this area, Jewell said.
Demolishing the hotel took a large amount of explosives, and the mountainous terrain called for unconventional methods of transportation in order to get equipment to the location. In this situation, the ANA provided the solution; the combined forces team loaded the backs of donkeys to carry 300 pounds of C-4 explosive charges.
"We are happy to help stop insurgents from entering our country in any way we can," said Baaz Mohammad, Afghan national army medical soldier. "With the help of the ANA-supplied donkeys, the trip is made more bearable."
According to Jewell, his unit's presence with the Afghan national security forces allows them to conduct missions that would conventionally be out of ANSF's grasp. Being partnered with American forces allows the ANSF opportunities to conduct missions that would otherwise be out of reach, such as the EOD destruction of the "Taliban Hotel," giving them something to work towards.
"We are supporting the ANSF to build a strong military presence that can support and defend their government against insurgents and criminals," he said. "That way, one day, they can conduct missions on their own at the same level, which is ultimately our goal in Afghanistan.
"Levelling the 'Taliban Hotel' prevents the insurgents from relying on another avenue to spread violence and turmoil with the borders of Afghanistan."

BAGHDAD – It takes more than just hot air to get the Aerostat surveillance system up in the sky, it also requires many hours of training.
Soldiers from 4th Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division have spent the last month learning from the ground up how to assemble, operate and perform minor maintenance on the system, here, at Joint Security Station Muthana.
The surveillance systems that are mounted on the Aerostat blimp have the ability to view objects or locations many kilometers away, during day or night.
"With this training [we] will able to operate the system ourselves and provide a aerial view across the area of operation," said Sgt. Perter Burkes, a infantryman from Austin, Texas. "The Aerostat is a pressurized flexible structure that's filled with helium and it looks like a blimp."
Part of the 28-day training on the $4 million piece of equipment required the Soldiers to spend two weeks in the classroom learning the ins and outs of the system.
"In the class we learned about each part of the system, how to put them together and operate it," Spc. Val Tapia, a fire support Soldier from Stockton, Calif. "The class was very helpful because we were able to ask all the questions we needed."
At the end of the classroom session of the course the Soldiers had to take a written exam to test their knowledge on the system.
"I studied very hard for the written test," said Spc. Roy Justin, a radar repair specialist from Castleton, N.Y. "I was very proud that I did excellent on the test."
Every Soldier that did well on the written exam continued on to the hands-on portion of the course.
"We inventoried each piece of the system and then basically put the entire thing together," said Tapia. "It took us two day to put it together."
The final portion of the course required each person to master how to launch and recover the Aerostat.
"It took a team of about eight people 15 to 20 minutes to launch and recover the system and each person on the team had to learn everyone else's position," said Tapia. "We launched and recovered the Aerostat at least 50 times, under the supervision of the civilian instructor, so that everyone would be confident no matter what position they were thrown in."
The Soldiers completing the Aerostat training course will provide a major asset to the area.
"The training was excellent," said Burkes. "Now that this team is almost done with the training, we will be able to provide the visual support that is very essential for the safety of our Soldiers."
