The only country i know is Kuwait who use "Barbed Wire Desert / Chocolate Chips" camo.

the camo generally could be well Kuwaiti, however that label looks very strange for an Army issue item, besides "Trouillet" is ( I think) a french (civilian) clothing manufacturer. I have a pair of summer shorts from them ...

Hello
Thank you for the information

Well, I said I'd try not to crypt post, but I mean, come on, I had to. Six years isn't too late.

Apparently Tunisian, used by a VERY small number of troops in the mid-late 80's, but don't take my word for truth until someone finds some hard evidence.

I got this image from archives of a large private collection stored in a dutch military museum, and I've already sent in another request for better (and hopefully more) pictures, more info, and hopefully, contact with the individual who procured the two samples. Sorry for lack of *solid* information, but I got too excited. I'll edit this post once I get a few more juicy details.

I don't have any pictures of it in use, but I know you're quite good at finding pictures once you know what something is. Check your email for another suprise.

So, I guess this calls for congratulations for owning *yet another* stupid rare piece.

Ethiopa
Sure, the colors of the ring are not the Ethiopa flag

Is this originally a Saudi 6 color uniform? Ethiopia and Sudan use a lot of surplus from other nations, so maybe this was original Saudi? Or did the Saudis not have pleated chest pockets on their 6 color ripstop uniforms?
