Bulgarian Desert Camo
Two Bulgarian soldiers standing guard in Karbala, Iraq. They're looking good. They've got the AK underfolders. They've got the Bulgarian Desert Camouflage uniforms. They've got the knock-off designer sunglasses. One has a doo-rag and the other has his sidearm strapped real low. (Wonder if that is a Russian made Makarov in the holster or if the Bulgarian have their own sidearm?) Very cool. I'm proud to count these men among our allies in the Coalition.
Bulgarian Desert Camo...that has to be pretty rare. Like Sudanese Winter Camo or Mali Jungle Camo. It looks pretty good though. Much better than the six color Desert Camo (Cookie Dough Camo) we wore in the first part of the Gulf War. We're making the Iraqis wear that now. That's what happens to you when you lose a war; you have to wear the other side's ugly hand-me-downs.
