What’s the Difference: USA Woodland vs ROK Tonghab

Hey guys today we're going to be looking at two similar but ultimately quite different patterns. The woodland BDU from the U.S. Army/Marine Corps and the South Korean Tonghab pattern. South Korea really adopoted the general principles/color scheme of the Woodland BDU but totally made it their own with a unique color scheme and new shape patterns.

The points you made about velcro remind me so much of a very famous funny video of a guy yelling to hide his reload. And on the reinforced elbowpads: are there uniforms that incorporate slots for adding padding? Like, as in foam? I mean that's gotta be pretty cushy for a soldier but... would be nice :)

Yes there are uniforms that incorporate elbowpads, but incorporating kneepads is far more common. It's usually plastic with foam on the inside. They work much better incorporated in the clothes rather than worn on the outside. The skateboard style ones come off really easy in combat.
