USAAF tropical officer's uniform

Was the tropical (khaki) uniform ever worn by ETO officers? If so, how common was it?

Don't believe it was, although, it's possible that the odd one was seen while 'in transit' from the MTO back to the USA perhaps, in the summer time. Although, even then it doesn't seem to have been all that common out in the Med either..?
Probably didn't have enough room for shipping summer uniform as well as regulation winter kit, other than perhaps a summer flight suit if heading for the Med...?
