Saint Lucia
This small, sovereign island nation in the eastern Caribbean has no regular military force. Instead, all duties pertaining to law enforcement and protection of the island fall under the jurisdiction of the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force, an agency of just over 1,000 personnel that includes the Coast Guard and the Special Service Unit (SSU).
- Members of the Special Service Unit have historically worn a copy of m81 woodland camouflage pattern fatigues that are essentially identical to those formerly worn by US military personnel. This was the standard uniform of the SSU up until at least 2009.
- Circa 2015, the SSU exchanged their traditional woodland camouflage for a copy of USMC temperate MARPAT, which is still in current usage.
