Once again, the media misses

this time in an article about how the U.S. Army is supposed to be setting a fashion trend in Gaza. The article leads with an anecdote about a Palestinians wearing olive drab just like the U.S. Army, complete with a photo of a display outside a Gaza store featuring an OD green shirt with "U.S. Army" stitched on the pocket. Of course, nowhere does it mention that the OD green "pickle suit" has not been authorized for wear since the mid-eighties and that the U.S. Army name tape goes over the pocket, not on it.
