The description below refers to SAP Camo Pattern 2, NOT the item for sale.
Key Distinction: This pattern 2 differs from the earlier 1st pattern (adopted in 1969) by removing the specific "smudge" and "pinwheel" features while retaining the general leafy look.
Usage: The camo pattern 2 was widely worn during the Border War era by various SAP units, including the controversial Koevoet counter-insurgency unit, and even by some South African Defence Force (SADF) special forces, such as the Reconnaissance Commandos.
