Duck Camo Waterproof Vest

PRODUCT DETAIL

Frog Skin (Duck Camo) was born out of necessity. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Pacific theater became highly contested, reaching New Guinea, a large island off the northern coast of Australia. It was home to many Allied military installations that posed a threat to Axis forces in the area. From early 1942 until the end of the war in 1945, New Guinea was central to operational power in the Pacific.
However, its tropical setting posed a challenge to the American, New Guinean, and Australian forces. The solid color of military uniforms of the time was evident against the jungle backdrop, filled with contrasting greens, browns, and beiges.
