-* The Slovakian [[woodland]] camouflage pattern was introduced in 1995, gradually replacing the Czech vz95 [[leaf]] pattern that had been issued for the previous two years.

Some collectors refer to this as "bright woodland." The pattern is officially known as vz 1997.

	The Socialist Republic of [[Czechoslovakia]] divided into two states on January 1st, 1993: the Slovak Republic (Slovakia) and the [[Czech Republic]]. While still a unified nation there had been two camouflage patterns under consideration for the Czechoslovak Armed Forces, these being the vz 85 (1985 pattern) [[leaf]] (later the vz 95 "leaf" pattern) and a two color desert pattern. Both were ultimately adopted by both the [[Czech Republic]] and Slovakia, although the latter discarded the leaf pattern only two years after establishing its own independent armed forces and instead adopted a woodland design.
