Yes, they had a bunch of uniforms from WWI for many countries and a few shelves of toys and they used word disruptive quite often - but not that they would tell what they meant. The whole exhibition is in one large room. No mention of CADPAT, and nothing (to the best of my memory) of modern kind. Nothing to learn, really. Maybe the only educational part was on razzle dazzle on ships - many images and images from the lab, people testing in scale models. They only section with depth. I would not be surprised if Canadian gov't is so paranoid that they consider cadpat that you can see on the streets A LOT (National Defence headquarters are downtown) - "classified". Anyhow - your website is the best I went there after visiting this websit site, and have not learned anything new.

Shame. Did they have any examples of post-war or more contemporary camouflage?

WWII paratrooper dummies (Rupperts). That is it. Read this site. Save money.
