A lot of Eastern European contractors (in this particular case, mercenaries are often a more accurate label) come from Croatia, as the Croat army was trained by MPRI to, arguably, the standards of a first world nation. During this training (and the subsequent Train&Equip program), a lot of Croat soldiers developed a taste for emulating American style kit and are probably still doing that, but lagging behind by, say, 5 years.
