I know the Army came out with a new green ACU uniforum.

But I thought I saw Gen Caldwell on TV this AM wearing a new tan camo type uniform . . .?
Is this new or did I see it wrong?

I ride my bike on Fort Story (US Army base in Virginia Beach) and I've seen a tan version of the ACU recently. Is that what you saw?

It could have been ? Not really sure if it was the same type of pattern.

It was about 0600, the TV was in the corner of the gym and hung about 10 feet off the floor. So I was not sure exactly what I saw during the quick news clip.

I'm riding this afternoon so I'll try and get a good look.

Well, the Marines have them so I'm sure the Army will follow;)

Seriously though, I heard the great thing about ACU was that it would work in all terrain.....I really don't know though

I see what I would call tan ACUs.

Most of the Army guys I see are wearing flight suits, though. :)

US Cavalry is offering the ACU in Plain colors - Khaki, OD, Black etc... Could this be what you're seeing? The maker is Tru-Spec.

Yeah, that's what I would call them too. I paid attention today and while the ACUs have sea-greenishness to them they have a lot of tan in that pattern as well.

Does anyone have a link to these possibly new ACU BDU's?

You have to pre order them by phone. They are in the newest catalog. On a somewhat similar note, Tiger Stripe Products & Tru-Spec are about to release a set of Digital Tiger ACU-style BDU's in the standard ACU color which is, to me, a mistake. I think they should do either Orginal Tigerstripe or their Digital Tiger in MARPAT Woodland color scheme.http://www.tigerstripeproducts.com/Digital_Tiger.htm

I beleive that is the news clip I saw.
But when I look at the clip, the uniform just looks like the normal Army follage green ACUs. Maybe the color was way off on the TV I was looking at . . . or maybe I am loosing my mind . . .:)

I just scoured the internet to find a picture of that new conference, and he is wearing a standard Army ACUs. That TV must have been really off on color.
So my fault, sorry.

Those BDU's in that video clip are the ACU's.
