" 6. All the Germans seen in this trench during the last week have been dressed in khaki." Anyone found anything similar in other accounts following actions?

In April 1915 the 8th DLI reported that same at St Julian -

I'd be curious to find out re any Germans- but I'd suspect a lot of Germans in Khaki were probably British.
