    yes, green has become more popular with the military also, but its not because it is more stealthy… Night vision equipment uses red light sensors, and it over reacts to red lights. otoh, Night vision equipment does not have a problem with Green lights.

    Submarines use Red Light to maintain Dark Adapted vision in case crew needs to look through the periscope into the dark of night.
