Soldier Operational Clothing and Equipment Modernization

Isn’t it redundant though? If someone has a PPCLI cap badge and “PPCLI” on their rank slide, does anyone really need to re-emphasize that they are, in fact, Infantry?

You can tell an Infanteer... you just can't tell 'em much

I’m not in the project but since CCUE also included rain gear, I’d expect that they are waiting for that.

Hopefully CCUE is a sooner rather than later project. There is some wicked kit in that catalogue.

Just for the record, CCUE and FOCE (Flying Operational Clothing Ensemble) are not projects, ithey are an initiatives.

For the majority of the CAF that distinction dose not mean much, but for those that deal with funding the difference between project and initative means a lot.

I can sort of understand folks wearing trade badges if their cap badge and wording under their rank is more generic, like HRAs or FSAs who wear the paperclip and “Logistics” under their rank.

Hey mister the world has to know who we are!!!
