Intresting. Note the 29th ID patch above the NATO patch. I'm guessing its set up like that because if she wore it on her right sleeve it would be a SSI-FWTS. Notice most of the others have it on their right side.

They may only make KFOR patches in full color and she may have been wearing that one for uniformity with the generals from other nations.

Those Italians are sporting a pretty neat pattern on their BDUs. Notice how even the civilian clothes have more camoflauge traits than the bright gray ACUs? Good grief. Notice the Cadpat seems to be the best?

Camoflauge just isn't the same. This is the ideal picture on the negatives of the ACU. Let alone everyone has spit shined boots besides Ms dufflebag drag. The brown jump boots look cool though. Sorry embassymarine, but you knew we'ld LOVE this pic.

Those are not KFOR patches (so everyone else knows).

Does this patch make me look fat?

FEM I did some checking, and the ones I found look nothing like that?

Brings a tear of shame to your eye doesn't it?

That's embarrassing. What was Natick/PEO thinking.

Put a little more tan colors into those italian uniforms and they might do well in Iraq too.

To show up for that command being that fat is a disgrace to the uniform, and especially to the 29th ID. It's an INFANTRY division, for crying out loud! I would almost give a pass if she was in some service and support group like Army Material Command, or something, but an Infantry division!?. The two female civilians are in better shape that her.

Someone get her on the Airborne track, quick!

Im guessing she didnt get her wings recently...
The most disturbing thing is that ankles are so big that she cant properly lace her f'ing boots up!

Not trying to jam on any of you guard guys here, but you answered your own statement there. The NG has it's share of political kiss a$$3$ also. I would hope she has a very critical MOS. It's also wartime, some of the regs just aren't pushed, obviously. True you are allowed a bit more weight the older a soldier gets, but, she's pushing it. You guys will see it, whenever we get things under control, and they do another drawdown, that a lot of nit picky regs will be pushed, to slim down the troop strength.

No, it's not. If I can keep my old, fat, lazy, dirty-nasty-Reservist-self within Army height and weight standards, she can too.

I'd like to see what that patch looks like up close if anyone knows where to find an image of it.
