Combat Dress
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Combat Dress was the name of the uniform worn by members of Land Force Command of the Canadian Forces from 1968 to 2002.
The combat uniform was olive-drab colour pants and shirt replacing the old Battle Dress from the British. This pattern was adpoted by NATO members in the 1960s, but abandoned for camouflage and disruptive patterns by all but Canada. Development of CADPAT started in the 1990's, but it was not until the turn of the century that widespread adoption began.
