    Hey all,

    Today was a real nice day, so I broke out the camera and took a load of photos,

    This is good kit. Although the FROG trousers are definitely heavier than the issue bug resistant trousers, they are still very comfy, at least to me.

    I can see how they may get a bit warm in the sandbox, the Combat shirt does help to keep the core cooler.

    Was lucky to find these 2 sets when it was still reasonable. The Frog Desert trousers are the most reasonably available as there obviously is a greater

    demand for desert uniforms at this time.

    Very nice items, sir. Have you by any chance seen the US Navy 3 Color DCU combat shirt?

    Thanks for  your comments , sir.

    If you mean a  Frog IWCS 3 color DCU, I did see one for sale a couple of months ago.

    I have seen one or two of the " normal" 3 color DCU combat shirts, but have not had a chance to get my hands on either yet.

    Mostly because of my stubborn search for things that fit me......They are out there...

    It wouldn't be the ICWS FROG set, but rather the FROG suit like the first two you posted. I was hoping you may know who would have used the DCU sets since they are a USN contract and not USMC.

    I've heard sellers say SEAL, but i'm not convinced that would have been the only USN personnel who would have used them. Thoughts?

    This also came with a Large-Long sized Crye Precision AOR1 early combat shirt. Definitely came from the same individual.

    Nice shirt, would love to see the early AOR 1 piece.

    I believe SWCCs would use Frog items as well as some Naval Aviation personnel.

    Particularly any flight deck apes such as Ordies, Grapes, Plane Captains, and such.
