Forever all the branch’s had shared cammo but the Marines set off 20 years of every branch trying to come up with the latest and greatest and waste how much money?
Cadpat and the US Army grandmas couch pattern have more in common. They both use poor color choice and don’t blend in with anything. Sure the USMC copied the digital pattern but they got the colors right and made it actually work.
