Polypro thermals...

I'm currently in the Army National Guard and work at Buckley. I have a set of those brown ones you speak of and actually wore them today to shoot in the cold.
Anyway, I haven't actually looked for them at the BX on base, but I'm sure they have them. Just let me know....

I'm @ Peterson BX & Clothing Sales a lot and they haven't had any PolyPro's in there that I've seen.

Back before I retired, I went to Ft. Carson to buy some - and some of the black leather work gloves with wool inserts because Peterson Clothing Sales wouldn't carry them. I was told at the register that I couldn't buy them because I was Air Force. When I pointed out that they were an AAFES (Army & AIR FORCE Exchange Service) Clothing Sales store they told me that they had an agreement with the AF that they would NOT sell to us, just the Army.

It would have been different if they had been available @ the AF base or if I could have gotten them issued, but my unit was too cheap to issue squat so we had to buy our own gear if we wanted to stay warm.

Eventually, I got into a position (augmentee) where the unit I was supporting purchased plenty of cold weather gear. I use the poly-pro's to this day every year during hunting season and whenever I go out ice fishing.
