>>30330506
no idea what chasseurs means in cheese speak but i'm pretty sure alpins has to do with snowy mountains where warm white uniforms would be the best idea
the floppy hat looks retarded
>>30330506
I don't know, anon. I think it's rather patriotic to wear their national flag.
>>30330512
No, it's an AK47
>>30330535
"Chasseur" means hunter.

Damn... just damn. The hat looks like extra flat version of cook's hat and who designed the snow camo suit failed to understand that it not usually terribly warm in areas where snow is present, hence snow camo is usually worn as loose outer layer instead of skin-tight suits of thin fabric.

It looks like a movie prop uniform made for a sci-fi DVD movie on a very tight budget.
someone photoshop BANG! onto the flag
>>30330506
It protects from the sun and the rain. And it's a distinctive feature of Chasseurs Alpins.

That's just the dress uniform. In the field they look like any other French soldier
What's the point of a beret anyways ? I understand using a hat, to keep the sun out of your eyes, but a beret seems useless as fuck.

It's a traditional hat from the French Alps and for God's sake, it's just a dress uniform (although they did wear the tarte in combat during WW1).

F2 is sexy.

MEANWHILE IN THE REAL WORLD :

>On one mission, American pathfinders from another base were going to climb a mountain to set an overwatch position with the French. One of the French captains later told me the pathfinders expressed concern that the French wouldn’t be able to keep up (“You guys sure you’re in shape? You think you can hang?” ). The captain assured them his troops would be fine.
>The mission began the next morning. The pathfinders were way overloaded, and started lagging within the first few hundred meters. The French captain laughingly told me he and his men had to pick up a trail of magazines and water the pathfinders dumped, and eventually had to physically help the pathfinders make it to the top. The pathfinders didn’t talk trash after that.
