The Desert Combat Uniform (DCU) is an arid-environment camouflage uniform that was used by the United States Armed Forces from the mid-1990s to the early 2010s.Developed in the late 1980s and first issued in very limited quantity in 1990 as experimental test patterns, the DCU and its camouflage scheme, officially known as the Desert Camouflage Pattern, and also known colloquially as “coffee stain camouflage”, was developed to replace the six-color desert camouflage “chocolate-chip camouflage” uniform, which was deemed unsuitable for most desert combat theaters.
