Hi all,

interesting collecting subject. I would be very interested in seeing the Iraqi patches when you have the time to post.

Here is my current favourite BDU from the smaller contingents, picked up at a fleamarket for the sum of $7 last September.

Hard to find uniforms such as these at the moment for obvious reasons.

Nice to find a fellow collector :)

Your uniforms deserve a thread of their own i am sure (or post them here...please!) you have some hard to find items.

The Mongolian and Khazakhstani spring to mind in that regard.

Are they badged?

Looking forward to the Iraqi items.

HI Stug,
HEre's a thread, had to edit earlier in the thread but put the uniform pics up see msg #27, most of them are badged luckily enough.
