Which Countries Use Each Camouflage Pattern?

Overview

This is a list of every unlockable camouflage pattern in Ghost Recon Wildlands, and which real life countries use them. I will only be covering the actual camouflage patterns, not plain colors like olive drab or coyote brown.I am trying to include only military units, so police units won’t be included unless they are from Bolivia.Included countries wore these camos at least some point in their history. Dates are provided where I could find them.This is for anybody who likes to theme their character around specific special forces or military groups from different countries.Information is pulled from Camopedia and Wikipedia. Let me know if anything is incorrect so I can fix it.
