    Found this on the Hungarian Army's website.  They are of a current issue Congolese uniform.  That's a Hungarian soldier at the head of the table.

    Now that I know to look for this pattern, it's not hard to find:

    no here is the confusion, is this Republic of Congo, or "Democratic Republic of Congo"
    i believe this is democratic republic of congo, in which we do have a tread with this uniform on display, but i like the clarity of your close-ups, you can see the pattern really well. When i first came across this pattern i thought it was a spin of the norwegian m98, but now i think it's really a new pattern.

    This is an outstanding pattern.

    I believe I have  commented elsewhere that this pattern and cut reminds me of the M98 Norwegian...

    Not typical of  African uniforms.    Want one !!!  bounce

    For some of you guys, the problem isn't the uniform, it's getting the patches to complete it. XD

    Norwegian was the same thing I first thought of!

    Dang, I didn't see Danilo's earlier post.  Yup, same uniform for sure.
