    Nice coat and vest, they go well with the Wallace tartan.

    I can relate to that. I don't seem to remember ever being warm in the what the Army described as a jacket (including the liner.)

    The waist coat looks great and the jacket looks to be a fun project. Do you plan to DIY?

    I can attest to that as well! I have to admit the gear is getting better though. A lot of the stuff that was issued to my unit for our deployment was actually pretty nice. Black fleece jackets, AF flyer gloves (still use them today), Super light brown t-shirts that wick like nothing I've ever seen. Pretty good stuff.
