Answers:
First two are Orange, truth telling!.
Third is Green, Lie!.
First says "I'm Orange" -true
Second - "he said he is orange" - true and therefore "so am I" is also true!.
Third - "first is green" - lie, "I am orange"- lie!.
______________________________________!.!.!.
Prove it:
The First will always say that he is Orange, no matter what tribe he is!.
Green tribe will lie and say "i'm orange", orange will tell truth "I'm orange"
That makes the Second "He says, he is Orange" true!. Since he's telling the truth, he is Orange!.
3rd saying that the first is green!. If 1st was really green, then the 2nd "he is orange" is also lying, which is not possible because 2nd already say the truth "1st says he is orange"Www@Enter-QA@Com

It could be anything, this riddle does not seem correct!. But I would say the first two men are green and the last is orange as the last man said the first man was green even tho the second man said he was orange!. Yeah I think the riddle is not correct!.
