2501, if you do some more investigation, you'll find the ACU pattern isn't grey and white, but rather a combination of tan, light green and dark green. Before you out-and-out dismiss the uniform, I'd ask you let the folks that have some experience with living in a soldier's field uniform put it through its paces and give feedback.

As for RealTree patterns, put up a shirt or pair of pants against the desired background, then walk 150 feet away. What you'll probably find is that the 'pattern' is now a dark or light blob that stands out against the background. Camouflage isn't a printed pattern on fabric--its an art, and the more you learn about it and practice it, the less you'll rely on the latest manufactured widget to properly employ it.
