FROG Uniform - USMC -
Flame Resistant Organizational Gear (FROG).
E' un sistema d'abbigliamento esclusivamente utilizzato dal United States Marine Corps (USMC) per ridurre il numero di ustioni e ferite provocate da un sempre crescente numero di IED (improvised explosive device).
Specifiche:
The frog system consists of a long-sleeve shirt, t-shirt, combat shirt, combat trousers, gloves, and a balaclava. the shirts and trousers are done in marpat.
- the balaclava has a hinged face guard that lets the wearer pull down the face guard and expose his or her face without taking off the helmet to remove the whole balaclava.
- the long-sleeve shirt has a mock neck, moisture-wicking, and antimicrobial properties.
- the t-shirt has most of the same properties as the long-sleeve shirt.
- the combat shirt closely resembles the mccuu, but the portion covered by the marine's body armor (otv or mtv) are not as fire resistant because the vest is adequate protection. there are pockets on the upper sleeve.
- the combat trousers also closely resemble the mccuu, but there is an additional calf-pocket to help distinguish it from non-frog trousers.
- the gloves are designed to be highly durable.
Flight and cvc suits are also re-classified as FROG uniforms.
the unit commander can dictate how much protection is needed by ordering one of two different frog levels, which alter how much protective clothing is necessary.
the corps is considering the purchase of a new cold-weather flame-resistant shirt, specifically for the bitter cold winters of afghanistan, along with a new fire-resistant glove for increased insulation in cold-weather environments.

Flight Suit CWU-27/P
- The current flightsuit that is standard for most air forces and navies is made of Nomex, a fabric made from spun aramid that is lightweight and fire resistant. The flame retardant capabilities of this material make it ideal for protecting aviators in case of a fire. The suit is often green or desert tan in color, with multiple pockets for specific pieces of gear (such as a clear plastic pocket on the thigh intended to house a map of the aircraft's planned flight path) but color, style, and cut vary greatly from country to country.
- The current model flight suit for the US military is the CWU 27/P and is available in sage green and desert tan. Commercial flight suits for civilian flying are also available, and are frequently used by helicopter crew (including non-pilots such as flight engineers and nurses), aerobatic pilots, and others who desire a practical "uniform".
- The United States Marine Corps wore flight suits during most vehicle patrols and ground combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, because their standard camouflage utilities were not flame-resistant. Flight suits are now being phased out among ground personnel with the introduction of the Flame Resistant Organizational Gear or "FROG" suit, which resembles the standard camouflage utilities.

Etichetta
ho vendurto qualche tempo fa una desert con quella stessa etichetta, mi dispiace dirtelo ma ci sono sempre state Può cambiare leggermente perchè le ditte che producono la marpat sono diverse per cui potrebbe cambiare anche il subappalto di chi fa il trattamento. In linea di massima c'è sempre scritto "buff off" e poi c'è una seconda etichetta verdina dove ci sono le specifiche (con gli ingredienti) e le istruzioni
Quindi una giacca senza l'etichetta (tipo quella che ho acquistato ) non ha visto il teatro operativo o cosa??
se ha l'etichetta con logo USMC (e le altre cose tipiche delle uniformi issued) è originale e potrebbe essere stata operativa (dipende dal tipo che l'ha avuta). Il buzz off è solo un repellente per insetti che può esserci o no e non indica se la giacca è stata in a-stan, iraq o qualunque altro posto di guerra
