    What is the little black plastic clip on the left shoulder strap? It almost looks like a mount for an inexpensive FRS/GMRS type radio.

    That's exactly what it is
    There's a picture of the guy walking around on a little Motorola radio that would fit on that little clip.
    I'll find a pic of it when I'm not on my pgone

    Makes sense, there have been plenty of Motorola radios used for squad communications, even in GWOT. Obviously not the best choice or most secure way of talking, but they did bridge the gap in an era when PRC126 were too large and bulky, and squad level use of Icoms and MBITRS hadn't been fielded en masse.
