KOPASGAT Loreng Pecah Beling Camouflage Set ’67s

“On 17 June 1967, while presiding over one of his last ceremonies as KOPASGAT commander, Air Vice Admiral Wiriadinata introduced a 2-piece camouflage uniform in a unique geometric design […] This uniform was still being used during Seroja Operation in December 1975 but was apparently phased out shortly after.” — Ken Conboy, Elite: The Special Forces of Indonesia, 1950–2008, 33.

This uniform, aka the “Pecah Beling” (literally “broken/shattered glass”) camouflage, was unique to KOPASGAT and remains one of my favorite patterns. It was often seen worn in combination with the KOPASGAT vertical camouflage during field deployments. Photo courtesy of Fokky Fuad, from the collection of Serma (Purn) Ricard Jopy Wokanubun.

Loreng favourite saya, pecah beling dari KOPASGAT yang pertama kali diperkenalkan pada tahun 1967. Loreng ini banyak terlihat dipakai di fase awal Operasi Seroja, penggunaannya juga campur dengan loreng kopasgat yang “mengalir”.

Cut celana era tersebut, sangat langka dikarenakan susah sekali mencari celana (apapun itu) yang masih survived dari waktu, dikarenakan celana banyak dipakai sehari-hari biarpun sedang tidak bertugas.
