Terrible question. I've seen blue and white in camo for cold weather climates.

khaki is a Persian word (also u can use it to describe a color)

The word means 'earthen or of the colour of soil' (from the Persian khak=earth/soil/clay). It came to English via Urdu; one of the many brought home by the Britons serving for the British East India Company, or under the Crown. As the etymology of the word suggests, it would be appropriate for camouflage purposes only in the dry sandy or dusty terrain, definitely not in snowy or lush green environment.

I know the dark green cammo was used for jungle warfare back in Vietnam for the Army. I have so seen blue commonly used recently for the Air Force. The khaki cammo is now used for desert warfare.

Khaki in Persian means the color of sand or soil or earth maybe that's where it's coming from and originated.

Ali *Regulus* Mirza, Right. A soldier's outfit during scouting missions and/or combat should be the prevailing color of the surrounding area.

Shark Asylum 1962, khaki's ( made of polyester ) are a light brown that officers and chief petty officers, senior petty officers and master chief petty officers and finally warrant officers wear. the variegated "khaki" is what they wear in desert areas to blend in with sand and dirt
