    I believe its illegal wheter your in the pdf/rdf or not, that is to say its illegal to wear it without permission to do so,
    I think the section of the law is quoted in the stickies somewhere

    yeap that is current irish army issue and when your friend left the reserves it should have been returned as it is actually still government property!

    and yes it is illegal to wear this without permission from the powers that be!

    Seems you missed the opening part of the forum charter -


    * DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING ILLEGAL. (If you are unsure about legality, PM a mod)
    - The wearing of Irish DPM pattern gear while not on duty, or any other clothing and equipment issued by the Irish Defence Forces is illegal under the Defence Act 1954 and it's subsequent amendments.
