Coming soon from War Sport Industries; the War Dagger. They build a great product so I’m looking forward to this.
If you don’t understand what a dagger is or what it is used for, please keep silly comments to yourself. The search function can truly be your friend but there will be guys who get it who are more than happy to entertain serious questions.
This image gives you a good idea of how to employ the War Dagger.
The results of the unscientific poll of SSD readers to chose their preferred US Army camouflage is Kryptek. Congratulations guys!
The shortcomings of the poll are myriad and it was all in good fun, especially knowing that the Army won’t spill the beans on who they selected for at least a while.
Thanks to everyone who voted and thanks to these great companies who developed some very innovative camouflage patterns.
Even though Congress is telling the US military to get their act together regarding camouflage and combat uniforms, industry is recognizing the innovative Marine Corps Combat Utility Uniform (over 10 years on from its creation, mind you).
Established in 1979, the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists’ Millson Award recognizes an outstanding invention’s merits and its impact on the US textile, fiber, polymer and medical industries.
For the very first time, the award went to a government team for “Counter surveillance camouflage patterns for a variety of military environments.”
Receiving the award earlier this year on behalf of the Government were Lt Col Gabriel Patricio (Ret), Infantry Combat Equipment program manager, known as PM ICE, at Marine Corps Systems Command and GySgt John Heisterman, chief instructor, Scout Sniper School, Training and Education Command, both at Quantico along with scientists Luisa C. DeMorais, Deidre Townes, and Anabela Dugas from the Army Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center in Massachusetts.
In addition to the unique MARPAT camouflage, the AATC award committee also noted the MCCUU’s innovative layout as well as the incorporation of permethrin to fight insects.
