Ah yes, I suppose you may have missed the whole thing where I'm a marine now. I'm currently stationed at a base in the middle of the desert. For reasons that are mysterious, the Corps has decided that everyone everyone (except those on deployment) will wear woodland camo on a day to day basis. Before this, it depended mostly on where you were stationed. West coast marines wore desert in the summer, woodland in the winter (it's actually warmer). East coast wore woodland all year round. Here in the desert we wear desert camo all year round. But now that's changed, because apparently this blends in better with sand than this. I get that we're almost certainly never going to be attacked here in the US, but it still feels silly to be wearing green in a desert, especially when we all own desert uniforms anyways. Oh well.
