    I believe those are Omani troops, judging by the orange DPM, as they are the only country I know of to use such a pattern.

    As far as their helmets, I am at a loss... but I definitely agree it looks really neat. Cool

    No worries; the fact that I'm as addicted to DPM and all its subsequent variants as you are helmets was how I knew. Laughing
    But then again, isn't our militaria "sickness" the reason we're all here in the first place? lol!
