I am not a fan of the ACU non-camo pattern, the pajama material, or the design.
The DCUs met my needs better, and were much cheaper to boot.

One of the worst days for heat, I emptied the 100 oz. Camelbak twice, drank a two liter soda, and several bottles of Gatorade. I was drinking hard every time we paused, and closely monitoring my urination. I was probably mildly dehydrated at times when we went long between breaks, but I was working on it every time we stopped.
For reasons that I think are pretty obvious, I do not drink alcohol or take heavy meds when I am in a shooting school.

Not to totally derail this thread, but regarding the light clips and assorted acounterments, have you found a good IWB holster that you can carry a 1911 with the light mounted? In the summer Im carrying the pistol IWB, with the light on a clip to avoid printing. In the winter with heavier clothing I carry the gun in a bladetech OWB holster with the light mounted and dont have a printing problem.

The Blade-Tech and the Side Armor are the only two companies I know making belt holsters that will carry the guns with lights mounted. I have tried to get my favorite holster maker, Kramer to make one for me, but thus far, they seem unwilling to try. Have you checked with Safariland?
HTH.
