Honoring 250 Years of Service

BFG® Celebrates the U.S. Army's Birthday


Always Better® | June 11th, 2025


At Blue Force Gear, our commitment to those who serve runs deep. Our roots are firmly planted in the military and first responder community, building gear for those who keep us safe. This week as we celebrate the United States Army's historic 250th Birthday, we reflect on the incredible legacy of service, sacrifice, and dedication that has shaped our nation for two and a half centuries. 

For 250 years, the U.S. Army has adapted and overcome challenges and defended our country with valor. From global conflicts to humanitarian missions, the Army has consistently demonstrated the values that define American service: duty, honor, country. The service men and women who have worn the Army uniform represent every corner of our nation and every walk of life, united by their commitment to something greater than themselves.  

They have carried our flag into the most challenging environments on earth, always ready to defend not just American interests, but American ideals.

Built For Those Who Serve 

From the start, Blue Force Gear has offered “Always Made in America” gear. With 100% Berry Compliant materials and methods, BFG manufactures premium gear for the warfighter and first responder. Those who stand in harm’s way to keep us safe deserve equipment that will serve their bodies and their mission well, getting them home safely to their loved ones. We build premium gear for the police officer responding to a high stakes call or for the solider on the front lines. These standards mean simply that equipment failure is not an option. 

This foundation in the first responder and military community is the force behind our brand. Our lightweight load-carriage equipment and rifle slings are built with the same unwavering commitment to quality and reliability as those we serve. Our high standards – gear made by Americans, for Americans – and the innovations we’ve brought to the load-carriage industry are just two reasons we’re the chosen brand by the U.S. armed forces and first responders. 

Special MIL/LE Discount

 While we celebrate the Army's momentous 250th Birthday, we extend our deepest gratitude to all branches of our military. Every brave man and woman who has chosen to defend brings unique capabilities and unwavering dedication to the mission of protecting America and our allies. Our law enforcement officers, firefighters, paramedics, and EMTs also deserve recognition as the daily guardians of our communities. These are the first to respond when crisis strikes, and the steady presence that allows the rest of us to sleep peacefully at night. 

Blue Force Gear offers a standard 10% military, first responder, and law enforcement discount year-round but in honor of the Army’s 250th Birthday, we’re adding an additional 5% off any website order placed from now until Monday June 16th at 11:59PM PST. This special offer is our way of saying thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and your unwavering dedication to protecting others. It's a small gesture compared to what you give every day, but it comes from a place of genuine respect and appreciation.
