Cammies
Cammies, as many of you reading this already know, is a very general term for just about any field uniform. It’s an older term, more readily recognized by those who wore Woodland BDUs than the folks in MultiCam or MARPAT. Happily, it’s still in the military/tactical vernacular. Although it stems from the word camouflage, it is occasionally used to describe single-color uniform patterns like Olive Drab fatigues and the like…although there are just as often referred to as ODs or Khakis, etc.
