Do you have any photos of Greek Army contingent in Afghanistan?

[flanker7]

The Hellenic Army contingent in Afganistan has been issued with what
seems to be a desert version of the standard lizzard type camouflage
uniform used by the rest of the Army.
I couldn't find any photos of it either on the net nor in magazines.
Perhaps you could help Icarus. Buy the looks of it you are good at it.

[oldsoak]

Interesting to see greek marines exercising with turkish boats.

[OzMan]

Sweet pics!! I never knew much about the modern Greek Army (not as prestigious on the world forum as they used to), but I'm hooked!

Post more if you got 'em!

[Icarus_222]

Flanker the camo type in use in Afghanistan is IIRC this (note this photo is from a 'Bright Star' exercise in Egypt):

GREEK AMERICAN AND EGYPTIAN SOLDIERS IN BRIGHT STAR MANOEUVRES IN EGYPT
Original caption: Greek Marine George Xiropoulos, from the 521 Marine Special Forces unit out of Volos, Greece, explains the sighting system of a Greek Anti-Tank weapon called the MILAN during a coalition training during Bright Star just outside Mubarak Military City, Egypt, October 13, 2001. Beside him is U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Carroll D. Mooney of the National Guard 114th Area Support Group from Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and a soldier from an unidentified Egyptian anti-tank unit. U.S. and Egyptian forces, alongside forces from eight other European and Arab countries, are holding long-planned military exercises in Egypt. *******/Gustavo Bahena/U.S. Army/HO

its not very hard, i learned how to do this in my ninjutsu classes.

[flanker7]

Thanks icarus, but what is IIRC? And if you know is this uniform going to be standardized and issued to some units or it's only going to be used in such ocasions like exercises and missions abroad.
