I'll have to dig it up but I've got a picture of a JTF dude in Haiti wearing the previous Generation patrol vest in khaki. I've finger-fucked both Gens and the big differences I noticed with the older Gen. vest was that the side cargo pouches did not have a cinch top to keep smaller items from falling out and the newer Gen. vest had a lot double-layer Cordura and felt more substantial.
I also ran into a CSOR pamphlet and I noticed on of their guys wearing what looked like the JTF2 patrol vest during some waterborne ex.
