DPCU or Disruptive Pattern Camouflage or Combat Uniform (also called Auscam, Austcam, Ozcam, DPU, DPCU, or Jellybean Camo) is a five-colour military camouflage pattern used by the Australian military. It was developed and tested during the late 1970s and early 1980s. Its name and initials DPC, DPU or DPCU should not be confused with "DPM" (Disruptive Pattern Material), a British pattern of camouflage.

Famous quotes containing the words pattern, combat and/or uniform:
“It was her stern necessity: all things
Are of one pattern made; bird, beast, and flower,
Deceive us, seeming to be many things,
And are but one. Beheld far off, they differ
As God and devil; bring them to the mind,
They dull its edge with their monotony.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“In case I conk out, this is provisionally what I have to do: I must clarify obscurities; I must make clearer definite ideas or dissociations. I must find a verbal formula to combat the rise of brutality—the principle of order versus the split atom.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“The maples
Stood uniform in buckets, and the steam
Of sap and snow rolled off the sugarhouse.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
