Armed Forces MCSS™ - U.S. Army Multicam Uniform |
| Armed Forces MCSS™ - U.S. Army Multicam Uniform
WASHINGTON (Army News Service, Feb. 19, 2010) -- Starting this summer, Soldiers sent to fight in Afghanistan will wear an Army Combat Uniform with the "MultiCam" pattern instead of the standard-issue universal camouflage pattern.
Secretary of the Army John McHugh made that announcement Feb. 19, after the service conducted a rigorous four-month evaluation of various uniform patterns to determine what could best protect Soldiers in Afghanistan.
The new uniforms are of the same material and cut that Soldiers are already wearing in the Army Combat Uniform or ACU. It is the camouflage printed on the fabric that will be different. The change allows commanders in Afghanistan to have more options in deciding how best to equip their Soldiers.
"As a material provider, I want to be responsive to the Soldiers I support," said Col. William E. Cole, project manager for Soldier Protection and Individual Equipment. "I want to give commanders options, I want to be responsive to Soldiers. That is what we were trying to do -- we're working to give (them) more options."
The uniforms bearing the new pattern, like the latest ACUs, will be fireproof.
The decision to use the MultiCam pattern came after the Army evaluated its effectiveness at providing camouflage protection in Iraq. That was done, in part, by consulting with nearly 750 Soldiers who had deployed to Afghanistan. Those Soldiers participated in a "photo simulation" study administered by the Army.
Additionally, feedback from Soldiers who have already worn the uniform in Afghanistan was used to make the final decision. About 2,000 Soldiers were involved in tests to see how effective patterns such as MultiCam and UCP-Delta were at providing concealment in the varying terrain of Afghanistan.

$89.99 | | | | Armed Forces MCSS™ "Proudly Serving America's Warrior's" WASHINGTON (Army News Service, Feb. 19, 2010) -- Starting this summer, Soldiers sent to fight in Afghanistan will wear an Army Combat Uniform with the " MultiCam" pattern instead of the standard-issue universal camouflage pattern. | | | | | | 
In competition, the world's best athletes lay down lines that no one else can hope to follow. We bring that idea to eyewear, styling it with art that has no equal. SPLINTER is a look of street sophistication that takes inspiration from Oakley athletes, and if you look closely, you can see the character of our best sport frames in the sleek sculpture of C-5™ alloy. We used that unique blend of five metal compounds to achieve premium durability with low weight, and it's just one reason why SPLINTER earns our metal icons.
Even the best style in the world is nothing without comfort, so we designed SPLINTER with custom-engineered spring hinges and added UNOBTAINIUM® sleeves to the temples. That way, SPLINTER maintains a secure fit that stays comfortably in place, even when you sweat. The frame makes contact only at the sides of the head and the bridge of the nose, taking full advantage of Oakley's Three-Point Fit that holds the lenses in precise optical alignment.
The lenses are made of pure PLUTONITE®, a material that filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up to 400nm. Ultraviolet light can sneak around the sides of any sunglass lens, so we engineered SPLINTER with 8.75-base lens curvature to maximize protection. Doing that was no simple task because extreme lens contours can affect vision. That's why we invented XYZ OPTICS®, a patented technology that maintains visual clarity along the entire lens contour, even in the periphery. Put it all together and you have sunglasses with a level of clarity and impact protection that meets all ANSI Z80.3 standards.

Oakley has partnered with Transitions Optical to create lenses that
darken and lighten automatically. The patented innovations of
Oakley optics are blended with photochromic technology which
actively tunes the amount of light that reaches your eyes. Even
better, the lenses include base colors that precisely balance light
transmission and boost visual contrast to improve depth perception.
This unique blend of innovations gives you the ultimate in
performance and comfort while improving safety in environments
ranging from overcast to bright sun.
Please note: These photochromic lenses are
enhanced with performance base colors, so they do not fade to clear
in the absence of sunlight. Also note that photochromic lenses
darken in response to UV light, and car windshields block most
UV.
