Find a movie The Fourth war from 1990. There is some amount of that camo in that movie.

[@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606]

To emphasize how well done and true to life the uniforms and equipment created for the movie really was, the CIA was alerted about the presence of a “train of soviet equipment” being moved to the shooting location and the CIA began an investigation into how the movie studio acquired that much soviet hardware. Also during the opening scene of the VDV landing on the school yard one of the performers was blown off course and landed in a ranchers field, the rancher then proceeded to pull out a rifle and held him prisoner until someone from the film could come and verify that the man wasn’t actually a Russian VDV paratrooper 😂

I watch 'Red Dawn' every 4th of July! I also imagine the Red Dawn camo would work pretty well in a half-snowed over winter environment where it's mostly woods but there are patches of snow on the ground/branches.

Living in northern Minnesota, I've settled on the German schneetarn pattern. I like it even better than the 'pine needle' pattern.

In 1984, I was 19, last year of college, I remember on a gun magazine called Diana Armi ( I'm in Italy) the recension of the movie. Some week later the movie was in a local theatre.

In the late '70s I read a book with literally 'no author' as the publisher tells the story - a guy drove to his house handed him the manuscript and drove off without leaving any contact info. The novel was published under the title 'Defiance' and I swear it was the book the 'Red Dawn' movie was based on although I understand there was a book called 'Red Dawn' - so I dunno. I can't find heads or tails of that book in several internet searches so I figure it was a small batch published and never revised. I gave my only copy of 'Defiance' to a friend to read and forgot about it for years and had since moved and lost contact. Iconic movie that probably too many of us still fantasize about - not the girls - the 'invasion'!

[@paul7754]

CORRECTIONS UPDATE: It must have been before Amazon and eBay since I searched for the book titled 'Defiance' by Oliver Lange. He is the 'author' (not publisher) but admitted the manuscript was handed to him. It was also published in 1984 - same year as 'Red Dawn' movie - so I didn't read it in the '70s as I thought. It's out of print but still available 'used' on eBay and Amazon.

I was 13 when it came out. I had my rifle and my ruck loaded and ready to go under my bed. Luckily I was raised on a cattle ranch. So I just had to cross one county road and I was in millions of acres of wilderness. People may find it funny but we were honestly fearful of a Red Dawn scenario.

[@karamelles98]

Will check out the "Red dawn". Seems quite well made camouflage clothing for a movie. I often wonder how come that in nowadays militaries (apart from the germans in ww2 and soviets and russians) don't utilize reversible camo more often?

[@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606]

The US had the frog skin reversible pattern as well as the Mitchell reversible pattern, I think the big reason is SOP. Different command units making different rules on how the uniform could be worn and what pattern should be worn etc etc, it would start to muddy the waters. Also in modern combat with body armor, riggers belts, things that would be hard to impossible to make reversible to match both camo patterns. They could do what the USMC did with making Coyote Brown a standard color across both Marpat variants however that’s still two separate uniform patterns.

[@karamelles98]

Didn't know that- in regards to the US camo patterns, thanks. Right now it looks like that tape in various colors to ID friend or foe is needed, since so many militaries use multi-cam. The gear doesn't cover legs and arms- but I agree about coyote brown- it blends quite will with camo- saw it myself in exercises.@@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606

[@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606]

@@karamelles98 yes multicam is hell. I really wish the US army would’ve went with a digitized woodland similar to MARPAT, even Canada the progenitor of digital camo is going to a multicam inspired pattern. Germany made a flecktarn multicam and China has already done similar with its type 07 design. WW3 would be a fratricide nightmare if it ever happens.

[@karamelles98]

I think I heard a story, where one ukrainian was left behind by his unit when they were cut off, and that he was wearing multi-cam, and all he took off his unit patches and tape, blended in with a group of russian soldiers that also had multi- cam and managed to get out of encirclement. @@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606

[@johndunbar2393]

I've never related to a man more, with the comment "If you don't like Red Dawn, you're obviously a beta male, who hates America." It is my favorite movie, and has been since 1984 (interesting year of release). I wore out 2 VHS tapes of that movie, and if I say I've watched it 1000 times, that's probably a conservative number. Heck, I used to make the Russian helicopter with wings, out of Legos, and would play with that with my G.I. Joes and re-enact the scene after they were baited with the food. Fantastic movie.
