Schiffer Publishing Ltd Camouflage Uniforms of Asian and Middle Eastern Armies
This book is the second in a series that show the camouflaged uniforms of the armies of the world. This volume covers the armies of forty countries of the Middle East and Asia. Where the previous volume on European and NATO armies only covered camouflage uniforms, this volume has added rank insignia and other badges making the book more complete. For the first time, the reader will have a full overview of the different military garments used by these countries. Many of these armies are engaged in conflicts around the globe. If not in United Nations peacekeeping operations, it is in the war against terrorism – in the Middle East, Korea, or Indonesia. In all of these conflict zones camouflage plays an important role and all of them are shown here in color.

Schiffer Publishing Ltd Camouflage Uniforms of European and NATO Armies: 1945 to the Present
This full-color book covers nearly all of the NATO, and other European armies’ camouflaged uniforms, and not only shows and explains the many patterns, but also their efficacy of design.

More than two hundred patterns have been manufactured since World War II using various landscapes and seasonal colors for their look. The Vietnam and Gulf Wars, African or South American events, as well as recent Yugoslavian independence wars have been used as experimental terrains to test a variety of patterns. This book provides a superb reference for the historian, reenactor, designer, and modeler.
