Does anyone know where I can find some good quality photos of "Close Combat Uniform" - new version of BDU?
It is used by 3rd Brigade (Stryker Brigade), 2nd Infantry Division in Iraq. I've been searching many sites but I've found only a small pics.

http://www.pmsoldierequipment.army.mil/FactSheets/factsheet.asp?id=98 Man the price point for the ACUs are OUTRAGOUS! No grunt could possibly afford that. The RAID BUDs, tho do not offer the same type protection as the ACUs do, are in the right ball park.
