How the Color was Chosen-
Dark Green. Amnon Lipkin-Shahak that was the Head of Intelligence in the beginning of the 90’s, made the decision jointly with then הקמנ"ר Daj Oren Shahor to transition to the green Beret. According to military tale green color comes from the Lily flower. The relationship between it and the army is shrouded in mystery.
