    No TA units should have it yet. It's only rolled out for ops so far.
    I could match my wage in civvy street but then I'd have to do some work!

    Our unit has apparently stopped replacing jackets/trousers, but we arent slated to get it until next year at least.
    "What kind of Terrorist are you?"
    "I am a terrifying....Terrorist... Are you scared?"
    "No.."
    "God dammit! Oh, err, i mean Allah dammit..."

    "so where did you train to be a terrorist?"
    "At the Suicide Bomber facility"
    "Oh really? Nice Place?"
    "It was..."
    "Why, what happened"
    "New guy...."

    an email came out from land recently informing us the woodland DPM is no longer being made!It is still available but at no more than 4 items of the same type/size (my translation) and in some cases to withdraw the third set of lightwieght CS95 (non applicable to TA!). Also am reissuing some kit as A2 after QM Cond Board! Sign of the times!

    I've heard that if you exchange something in the near future(until PCS comes out) it'll be pretty hit or miss what you may get back, Temperate, Desert or MTP CS95!
    Who me?

    The TA have 'witch' units now? Justifying existence...cheap transport cost with the brooms, though!

    Are you sure you were measured up for MTP and not FAD? You normally order MTP off a chit as it equates directly to your CS95 sizes, even then only for ops. It is due issue to regular units (in PCS form) in 2012 and even this will be as per a fielding plan - those due on ops first. There are always a few anomolies, training units tend to get it early on too.
    I give it 12 months from general issue until people are trying to sneak their DPM kit back on to look ally.
    If no plan survives first contact etc...
    Why have I just built a model and wrote a set of orders at 3 in the bloody morning?

    Just one on that, PCS is being issued to regular units from apr this year and to recruits from aug/sept.

    I would have said around 4 years for ACF. Considering it is a 2 year roll-out for the Regs.
