The colors jungle green or tropical rain forest are often used by cartographers
to represent the tropical rain forest on a natural vegetation map. The colors
jungle green and tropical rain forest are used by environmental activists who
conduct save the rain forest campaigns on their posters to publicize their
work. In the British and Commonwealth armies of World War II, Jungle Green was
the name given to the uniforms worn by forces in the Far East, made from the
breathable Aertex fabric. In the United States Army, jungle green is the color
used for the uniforms and berets of the United States Army Special Forces. (The
shade of jungle green used in the uniforms and berets of the U.S. Army Green
Berets is closely equivalent to the color shown above as deep jungle green.)
