Uniform Terminology
I too associate 'combats' with the last version of Canadian field uniform.
Scarlets, Service Dress and Battle Dress were also all combat uniforms, yet the distinction is made when discussing these garments and their associated insignia. As stated, the term 'combats' is generally associated with the OG107 green uniform first introduced in the early 1960s and used until the early part of the 21st century. When discussing the new camouflage uniforms, using the terms CADPAT TW and AR helps the reader more readily identify with the item being talked about.
