Tried.
None at all.
You can always be creative and use the russian soldiers from the Indy sets and use a different helmet like this one
I've been wondering this to and I can't find anything (that's cheap anyway)! But your right T.G. Tom, the Russians would work, but I don't really want to buy a lot of the Indiana Jones sets since my funds are at a minimum.
Someone on the Fine Clonier Forums (I think) once made a group US-military-type guys. . . except they had clay/fabric berets. The creator used acrylic paint, I'm pretty sure, on plain torsos. (I wish I could find that picture; it was pretty good.)
Pick up some cheap second-hand 'figs at a yard sale or consignment store and take a paint brush to them. It'll be much cheaper than buying custom ones.
Search at Bricklink
I don´t know if you could find one there but try....

Well, I am planing to have the US fight the Russians, so I am using that uniform for the Russians.
EDIT: I found this picture on Google. It says it is a modern US solider. Do you think the German solider from the Indiana Jones LEGO set will do?

With a helmet, they could work, I suppose. They run from 1$-2$ apiece on Bricklink, so they're not the cheapest, though.
I should probably explain my idea.
It is a war in the future in USA where the Russians fight the US. The soldiers where the uniforms that soldiers wear today.
EDIT: I've found my body, now Ii need help in finding a place where I can purchase helmets.

Hat.
I was talking about the helmet in that pic.
That's a brickarms deal. He used to have it on his site for order, but he must have stopped making them.
