The latest in Marine Corps equipment

Things a soldier would carry other than firearms, ammo, or uniforms. Meaning equipment such as ammo pouches, bayonets, holsters, oil cans, cleaning equipment, etc.

The Quartemaster obviously sent them the wrong camouflage, that's Temperate, Seasonal (Christmas), Urban, pattern (just right for hiding Marines under the tree).

I am looking for the DOD caption that goes with it.

They take the toys for the Iraqi children that they run across.

I saw a like picture with some soldiers handing out small stuffed animals and balls to the kids, G.I.'s have always had a soft spot for the kids no matter what country there blowing up at the moment.
