Mostly some scrambled eggs uniforms here I thought I'd share.
An old pic, this is the first set I acquired. It's ranked to equivalent of a 1LT, and I was told it was traded by an American officer with an Egyptian colleague during the Gulf War.
Stocks of uniforms were also provided to Kuwaiti volunteers, note the insignia, and many of these guys are wearing the now rare to find "arid" scrambled eggs with no green shapes.
A pair of the "blue" based color variant trousers, in a more combat-oriented cut. These "blue eggs" and some more green-based ones seem to date more to the 2000's and were especially visible during the Arab Spring.
A more recent find, one of the weird pullover anorak/parkas. I've seen a handful of these over the years but never in photos, only the M65's.
They seem older but haven't showed up in any Gulf War/Bright Star era photos yet, or recent ones for that matter.
It features a zip "kangaroo" pocket and all that I've seen seem to have a square of velcro off to the left of the center pocket, maybe for a rank or name patch.
This one has a Western name and number written in it.
And last for now, a visor cap, said only to be "Mubarak era", which only really narrows it down to 80's-mid 2000's when I got it.
Enjoy!
