they have an interesting history and sealed pattern items are always worth getting, I have a sealed pattern cap.

And also, who can resist some sheets of jungle dpm & desert dpm.

Some more food for the DPM freaks.

The New Zealand DPM uniform, three examples showing the development of the uniform between 1998 and 2008. The earliest shirt shown here dates from 1998, the 2005 model and the 2008 revised uniform in ripstop. All shirts (I do have the trousers for the 2008 shirt) are made by Magrath Manufacturing Company which started making NZ Army uniforms in 1946. The early shirt quite strong in the yellow colour that matches NZ Bush.

Correct. It is the Light Dragoons Tactical Recognition Flash (TRF)
