Hell, I was still wearing Green Jungles when I went to Selection in 2002….. I think I still have a pair…

I was “blessed” with narrow feet, so got lucky and found bunch of new ones on the shelf at a surplus store outside of Campbell. I think I paid like $30 per pair?

Best damn boots the Army ever made, so of course they got rid of them.
