Digital Marpat Jacket
Does anyone know where you can get this jacket? I've seen some fleet Marines wearing it but I don't know where you can get one.
Thanks
P.S. I tried searching but it was not working.

Yeah, you'll get it issued. You're not talking about the Gortex but the new one, right?

It matches the utilities dead on, all the other services have one to match. When you say issued do you mean issued like how my camis were meaning I get to keep it or issued as in I'll have to give it back when I PCS? I'm at Fort Meade and I see all the other services with one that matches theirs perfect.

Um, I got mine in a pre-deployment issue I think, vice general issue. If you are at an MOS you won't get one likely. Yeah, you'll have to give it back when you change units.

Can you explain what it looks like? Are you talking about the long-sleeve thin desert jacket? It's perforated and has a hood? If so, I got mine from my reserve unit, issued.

Why are we always the service that when has to check our field jackets and suc out but you go in the Army,Air Force or what ever and everything is yours and you are issued them to keep not use and return.I was in 20 years ago and it was that way and seems it still is.

Because the Corps doesn't have money, and the Corps is cheap. Lol.

this is pertinent to anyone who hasn't deployed in awhile...
The ubiquitous "they" have put the kibosh on combat loss claims.
To add amplifying information to what Bulk said:
The Army's ACU's for example, are super crappy. Guys go through like a dozen sets during a deployment. Hell, in Jump school, my Army roommate went through two pair of cammies, and that was only three weeks long! You could hold them up to the light and see through the fabric. They have stations set up on their bases to dump cammies (b/c idiots were giving them to locals, was another reason) and buy new ones. Basically throw away uniforms.

You can get any of these jackets at CIF, you just have to get the nice person at the counter to help you and then you have to ask nicely.
I've seen quite a few of these floating around the pawn shops around Lejeune
For those of you deploying overseas, try and become best friends with your supply guy. The units out there have nearly a unlimited access to CIF gear and other items.
