MINDORO ISLAND, P.I.   DECEMBER 1944

.
In
the SWPA, the camouflage uniforms were either the two piece or the once piece suit (often called a frog or frogskin suit). The  SWPA version also differed in that it had plastic buttons instead of metal 13-star buttons of the ETO suit.

The SWPA cammo was herring-bone twill, while the limited European issue was cotton.
