The green nomex flightsuits are very thin. Holding them up to the light, you can almost see through them. The tan nomex flightsuits seem to be made of thicker material.

Over the water operation for the navy in cold regions dictated wearing an anti-exposure suit, thermal suit and then the flightsuit and gear.

I don't know, but maybe you should lay off. I mean, you're dumb enough already. ;)

Am I alone in thinking a butt flap is a great idea? Of course, if I could find one in MARPAT, I think I'd be comfortable wearing footy pajamas to events in the winter.

To me they seem they would restrict more movement, but idk.
