Theres a lot of US PASGT vests in the system, only now they are for troops in training(ie SQ, DP1, FTXs, etc)

In 2002 it aswell as the Cdn OD PASGT vest were in use since there wasn't a enough of the new(at that time) Canadian body armour out( what you see Maj Campbell wearing in the 2nd pic).


But now everyone on tour gets the new Canadian CADPAT carriers with plates, and a lot of Reg Force troops get them issued at their units.


As for the 3 color desert helmet covers you see some troops wearing, that would be something they acquired from US troops.


Also, our snipers in 01/02 were issued British Desert DPM uniforms.
