When more than 90% of your post consists in what other people posted it means there's not much of interest that you're adding.

In Portugal they would be wearing the standard 1911 uniform with 1913 sun helmet. The units would look like this: http://i426.photobucket.com/albums/p...secolonial.jpg (though it says "colonial" in the name they are wearing the home uniform). The colours is a light blue grey (it's actually a mix of black and white cotton threads), including the helmet.

The difference with the CEP is: lighter cotton uniforms (instead of the wool worn on the Western Front), brown leather equipment (instead of the copy of the British webbing equipment) and sun helmet (the peaked cap was also worn in Portugal, but it was meant as a side cap).

So, pretty much, they'd be wearing taller pith helmets, some with spikes. That and they have a light blue gray? About https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadet_grey maybe?

That sun helmet with the spike on it is super cool, love the color too.
