its best to wear orange just in case there are other hunters out, so you dont get shot, while being mistaked for an animal.

In many states wearing blaze orange with a certain amount of square inches on front and back is a state regulation - for big game rifle season.

Because it's possible that they could mistake you for another military or something. I am not 100% sure on that it's just what I've heard from multiple people.

Actually it is required by law most places. The reason for bright orange is so that other hunters will be able to see you easily and not mistake you for an animal. Some careless hunters will shoot at a moving bush and if you are behind that bush in camo or even bland colors you could be shot. Bright orange has resulted in a significant decrease in hunters being killed by other hunters.
