I use a lot of BFG equipment, and have always found it to be high quality and very well designed. Arctyrex (sp?) introduced Urban Wolf, which is a lot like a Maritime Gray, and people saw early on that it was an excellent camo color that didn't look like camo. It really seems to blend into a lot of environments, and if your uniform is patterned after an Ohio State Trooper's, or National Park Service Ranger, it'll be a lot lower-visibility than anything else, and will blend right into your shirt.
Coming from an urban environment, most of my stuff was solid black, until I learned the value of spray paint. Now that I have more experience, and now that a million more people have centuries of experience working in multiple environments ending with consonants, solid black is arguably the worst color to wear, unless you are infiltrating a black licorice factory or asphalt plant, which I've actually done. The more solid black you wear, no matter how dark, you look like a cop wearing solid black. It blends with shadows, and black paint, but nowhere is solid black, and the failure to break up against a light background, even a glint of crescent moonlight, just kills it. Or the wearer.

NRTI as we knew it is no more, and I don't know what will happen in the future. Technically, I'm still employed by the College, though am enjoying a paid hiatus, and working on everything I couldn't work on when I was spending 70 hours a week running the Program, like cleaning up from the tornado that hit, what, 7 years ago now? I'm also commissioned with a nearby county agency, actually answering to one of the more popular instructors, so I'm still trying to keep my hand in.
I'll continue to post information and news from grads and friends, and also want to keep current with LE news and references.
My College phone and e-mail are pretty much out of service, so I'll be setting up yet another account , so we can stay in touch.
