I have several pairs of those surplus, OD Green, wool pants (some are 20+ years old). A couple of them have been stained, over the years, and when I see the stain I can, still remember where, how, and when it happened. Not quite as good as field notes or a hunting journal but still a plus.
I'm okay with that. These are highly practical and utilitarian items.
