› Modern Era: Desert Storm, GWOT and Beyond (1990–Present) › Kalhoty Close Combat Uniform (CCU)
A holy grail for modern era collectors: The US Army CCU (Close Combat Uniform) jacket. Tagged formally as "COAT, COMBAT UNIFORM (CU)". This transitional uniform was issued in limited numbers during 2003-2004 for field trials with Stryker Brigades before the adoption of the UCP ACU. It features the modern ACU cut (velcro pockets, mandarin collar) but in the legacy 3-Color Desert (DCU) pattern. This piece is fully patched to a Sergeant Thompson of the 2nd Infantry Division.
The "Holy Grail" of modern experimental camouflage: An original US Army Helmet Cover in the Urban Track pattern (colloquially known as "T-Pattern"). Produced as part of the Close Combat Uniform (CCU) trials in 2003–2004, this gear was issued in very limited numbers to select units (like the Stryker Brigades) for evaluation before the Army adopted UCP. Genuine, surviving examples of this pattern are incredibly scarce.
