Czechoslovakia

Translated Designation: Model 60

History: Introduced in the beginning of the 60'ies

Use: The standard camouflage pattern of the Czechoslovakian army - the Czech army has after the split with Slovakia adopted a Woodland type camouflage

Camouflage pattern: Brown "rain streaks" on a green background with green spots. It was in soldiers' slang called "jehlicí" (needles). It is quite curious that there are these green spots as they are hard to see close up, and impossible to see at a distance.

Other Information: The pattern is called "Vzor 60" (pattern 60). It was replaced by the plain green Vz. 85 - and later by the current woodland (Vz. 95) in the Czech Army .
The hood is detachable
