Fatigues

'''Fatigues''' are part of [[UNSC Marine Corps Battle Dress Uniform|the Battle Dress Uniform]] worn by military personnel of the [[~~United Nations Space Command~~ Defense Force|UNSCDF]] during combat duties. Rather than [[oDST armor|full-body combat armor]], like those worn by the [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODSTs]], regular fatigues are relatively simple cloth garments, with the benefit of flexibility and light weight, though at the cost of less protection from enemy fire.

Though it provides very little actual protection, it can be covered with ballistic armor plating, such as the [[M52B Body Armor]], and can also include [[camouflage]] to allow the wearer to blend into their environments.

Fatigues are worn on missions where the added protection of heavier armor is a disadvantage, such as difficult terrain or for stealth missions. The clatter of armor may alert previously oblivious enemies to their approach, and the weight and bulkiness of the armor may inhibit the wearer's combat performance.
