Khaki drill

North Africa and the Mediterranean

The British Commonwealth Infantry provision of a sandbag position Defensive near El Alamein, 17 July 1942.

In the early campaigns in North Africa and the Mediterranean theater, British troops wore khaki drill (KD) shorts or pants with shirts with long sleeves Aertex. The tan, pale shadow of EK was more adapted to desert regions or semi-desert of "dark khaki" or brown twill used in battle dress. When the allies moved to Italy, but two pieces of denim overalls khaki combat gear as more and more preferred. In 1943, the KD shirt began to be replaced by a more sustainable cotton bush jacket KD.

Far East

Lieutenant General Arthur Percival, GOC of Malaysia when the Japanese invasion of Bush's jacket KD agent

Lieutenant General Arthur Percival, directed by a Japanese officer, walks under a flag of truce to negotiate the surrender of Allied forces in Singapore, 15 February 1942. All shorts worn with standard KD.

In the Far East, the British were at war with the Japanese, while the uniform practice equipped KD. Shirts and trousers are dyed Green as a temporary solution to the jungle more appropriate clothing available. A new uniform tropical jungle green (JG) was a battle quickly developed Aertex JG blouse, jacket Aertex JG Bush (as an alternative to the blouse) and cotton twill pants JG battle. In hot and humid conditions of Southeast Asia, with darkened JG sweat almost immediately.

E-World War Two

2/5th Royal Gurkha Rifles march through Kure JG shortly after arriving in Japan in May 1946 under the Allied occupation.

Field Marshal Claude Auchinleck (UK) CC-British Army in India, the then viceroy Wavell and Montgomery. All the variant gala MK.

khaki battle dress was used until late 1960, and various parts of the uniform KD, JG and GL remained on the topic of troops destined for the Mediterranean, Middle East and the tropics after the war. In late 1940, but stocks were running low, and a new model 1950 – tropical uniforms were made available in both KD and JG. It was poorly designed, with a jacket assembly Aertex Bush slandered poor, belts and ties that delves into his hips while walking kit. Finally, the most practical Gurkha regiments JG shirt has been copied to replace the 1950-model bush jacket. However, still looking for former troops in wartime, the problems of a better KD, JG and GL kit.
