The German army in Africa throws up another of those quirks where the uniform was in no way uniform. Originally they were issued with a green khaki tropical uniform and pith helmet, these were in no way fit for purpose and were phased out for a looser cut of uniform that came in a khaki brown colour that faded over time to a yellow cream.

Because of this your units can be as mixed as you would like them to be, stick to one colour throughout the force, or mix and match squads or even individual bits of clothes among the squads to create a really hodge podge veteran look.
