I can confirm the use of 4th Gen OD green jungle uniforms use while on active duty. I’m a retired Army Infantryman and while stationed at Ft. Campbell, KY from Jan 86-Dec 93 we were issued two sets of them from CIF to be used for field training only. So if anyone ever says there was no such thing, point them in my direction. We didn’t always wear them for field training, we did if we were on an opposing force so we were easier to identify. We were also issued standard Vietnam era OD green jungle boots which many of us wore in both the field and the rear. During the colder months we’d wear thicker boots for obvious reasons, the jungle boots sucked in the snow. When our unit participated in Operation Ocean Venture in 86, we wore only our OD green jungles and spent days walking through the jungle on Vieques Island near Puerto Rico, we’d always roll up each cuff 2 times to get the heat to vent off but never rolled up high, the arms would get hammered with bugs or foliage and every plant there seemed to have a thorn on it, the black palm was the WORST, avoid that at all costs, lol.
