Actually, this isn't entirely accurate Stuart.
In the tail end of the "Cold War" circa 1990 was 82 Pattern Webbing, Steel Pot Helmets, Four Seasons Jackets, and if you were a Reservist likely still carried an FN Rifle.
By the time we rolled into Bosnia, we had Kevlar Helmets, Tactical Vests (albeit terrible ones), Goretex Boots, Goretex Jackets, and carried C7A1s.
