The island nation of Jamaica became a British colony in 1655 after it was captured from Spain. Hugely important to the slave trade and the sugar industry, by the beginning of the 19th century around 95% of the population were of African descent. Full independence was granted to the nation in 1962, although it remains a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.

The Jamaica Defence Forces (JDF) encompasses the Army, Air Wing and the Coast Guard. The primary formation of the JDF is the Jamaica Regiment, comprising three battalions.

* Since 1986 the JDF have worn the [[USA|US]] m81 [[woodland]] camouflage pattern.
