I was considering this as well. I would expect it would only be worn while walking to a function from the car or standing around outside at a function. I always hated seeing Marines standing around in uniform without a cover on. It just kind of looked like you were still getting dressed or had your fly open so I felt like the glen would provide a more complete look to the whole rig. Other than that I would think it would mostly be worn while hiking to keep in some heat in the cooler months or protect from sun (attic insulation is getting a bit thin )

But it sounds like the vote is for the solid green, if needed.
