If you look at all the Strictarn patterns at a distance , they just blend into a Khaki OD green color, at most distances its not a very effective as camouflage , at least not really better then regular OD Khaki BDU's .

Yeah, but the NVA were so good that you'd only see them when they were up close, and that's the last thing you'd ever see... That's why they didn't need "distance" camouflage of amateur armies like the US or UK.

That flash of close-up strichtarn just before your death....
