I emphasise these are all of the same regiment.

Peaked caps, with or without neck protection, are often worn under
bone-domes (which usually are covered with cammo). (10th Light Horse)

Others in the "armed to the teeth unarmoured vehicles" series,
this one showing the good effect of cammo - same vehicle in
rainforest/jungle, open forest, and others in dry scrub (it has at least
one piece of vegetation in it, so it's not classified as desert)
