Kabul, Afghanistan

Private Tony Bahadur of the 2nd Battalion, The Royal Canadian Regiment (2 RCR), watches a sparrow rest at the end of his C7A1 assault rifle. The injured bird was freed from barbed wire by Canadian troops manning an observation point in Kabul, Afghanistan.

Canadians were the first with CADPAT. Later the USMC developed its own digital pattern: MARPAT.

The Canadians made CADPAT and then we helped you with MARPAT.
