If you're asking about arm pockets to the combat shirt, They are a private expense and an in-theatre modification. Usually the shirts are modified by removing the internal chest pocket and sewing it onto the shoulders, although the fasteners differ (button, velcro etc). the arm patch for velcro IR patches and IR canadian flags is also a private mod.
back in canada, we're hoping to see these mods become standard on the TW uniform, because they do make a lot of sense and they reflect the changing nature of war. However, some recent reports i've read have put a damper on that.. our uniforms are the same cut as the 1984 pattern OD. only the material and the print has changed.
