Anybody have pics or a link showing USMC tanker uniforms from the first Gulf war??? Did they wear the desert BDU's, woodland, or the OD colored jumpsuits?

Yes on all three, depending on which was available. Either would be correct.

Hello,
As far as I remember everyone had the standard CVC suit.

Here is a picture I had posted in the old Armorama Gallery. It is a picture of my Nomax suit. If you need more, just let me know. The Marines and the Army wear the same thing.

Don't forget MOPP suits. I recall wearing them quite a bit when there were SCUD alerts.

What also needs to be remembered is that the Marines don't put any type of identification on the uniform besides the tank insignia on the collar.
