Leaving aside baseless, extremely speculative ACU/Army procurement bashing (given the amount of idiotically high-speed gear American soldiers have carried into combat over the last century you'd think people would stop bitching) and adressing your specific point about Multicam, you are basically saying that the only people in the military who ever use the pattern do not have photographs taken of them and never have been photographed wearing it.  This is a dubious assertion in the first place and serves as an excuse to insert uncited information into the article based on nothing more than internet scuttlebutt.  

Based on the photographs, "sources" and so on provided, I can at this point conclude that SOCOM does not use Multicam in any substantive way.  Given the amount of fanboyism out there for the pattern I am confident that if real, non-airsoft special forces used it there would be a large number of photos out there.
