Default Canadian Camo combat pants in the 1960's?
Hi All,
Have been going through my collection tonight and came across a pair of Canadian issue combat pants dated 1963 which I believe was the first year they came out with the combats replacing the bush dress of the 1950's. I was given these pair of pants probably 15 years ago and at first thought somebody washed them and bleach somehow got on them and turned the material a funny color but as I looked at them closely, the material was purposely died this way and then sewn together. Were there to anybody's knowledge Camoflage combats produced? I have only ever seen this one pair and am curious about them. Anybody have information on the Canadian Combat uniform from the 1960's? Would love to know more about them. Thanks for any information you can give me.
Regards,Derk
