What's the different between acu uniforms with manufacture code and the one without the code??
I heard people said the one with manufacture code is from the army and the one which doesnt have the code is for civilians. Is that true??

The ones without the NSN and not from an approved manufacturer may not meet the standards for the uniform. There cold be a variance in sizing, cut, material, durability, etc. Most will not be IR compliant and will not have the IR tape on the shoulders.

IR is very important to our Soldiers in Iraq.
It is IR-Iraqi Repellant.

In Afghanistan they use TR-Taliban Repellant.

If the Army were smart, they'd just issue BOR - Body Odor Repelant to everyone and not have to stock two different products.
