Pick of the Day: Propper Genuine Gear BDUs

We know what it's like to be on a tight budget, so that's why we like Propper Genuine Gear: good value for a great price. The four-pocket BDU coat and trousers are constructed to the same specs as other Propper uniforms, with a price of $19.99 each piece. At that price, you can afford to replace those old BDUs that have seen better days, and they come in these colors:

Three years ago a mysterious and deadly outbreak plagued Central Ohio. The dead came back to life and feasted on the flesh of the living. In order to quarantine the virus, the U.S. Military and the United Nations quickly built a 50 foot tall wall that covered 350 miles of Central Ohio. Within those walls more than 300,000 people perished, and any remaining survivors are unreachable. The Umbrella Corporation was put on trial, however there was a lack of substantial evidence due to the Umbrella facility being destroyed, so they got away with mass murder.
The Umbrella Corporation has now been forced to do all experiments underground, and is constantly being watched by the newly formed International Containment Unit or ICU. The ICU has been working on an anti-virus, but they have made very little progress. Little did ICU know that Umbrella was doing the same, and sending their own scientists into the quarantine zone to obtain samples of the virus. During a flight back to the main Umbrella lab in New York, an Umbrella Scientist who was unknowingly infected began feasting on his fellow colleagues. An Umbrella soldier attempted to kill the zombie scientist, but instead breached the hull of the plane causing it to crash in the outskirts of Hubbard, Ohio. When Umbrella lost communication with their plane they dispatched their quick reaction force to clean up the mess, and prevent yet another outbreak. An Umbrella Official has called in the ICU to quarantine the city because there have been rumors of a possible new slow spreading virus strain in the city. ICU orders are to keep all civilians in the containment zone and perform blood tests on all civilians to determine if they are infected. Lethal force has been authorized for ICU to use on all civilians who do not comply. Can the UBCS reach the crash site in time? Can the ICU keep the city quarantined? Will you survive the outbreak?

Teams:
UBCS-Black Gear only-Full
International Containment Unit(ICU)-Desert based BDU's-50 slots available
Civilians-Civilian based, No BDU's-100 slot available

Speaking of the 4th...patch of the day is:

Flags.
We have them. In all colors, regular and mini-size, and reversed. From Milspec Monkey.


(The reason you might want a reversed flag patch is that the stars must always point forward, so if you wear it on your right sleeve...get it?)

Complete your uniform with a flag. Regular size is $6 ($4 + $2 for shipping), and the mini is $5 ($3.50 + $1.50 for shipping). Discounts apply when you order multiple patches. Contact sales@darkthreads.com for more info.
