Default 3 tone

Here is another can of 503-321 Camouflage Olive Drab.
It is a darker green as you can see.

My paint chip book has not been updated since 1968, so maybe there was a camouflage green (Pea or lighter green) which did come out later and i never got the updates OR it was part of the earlier camouflage before the one we all know, was standardized.

I have seen photos of vehicles painted camouflage and they were gloss in colour, using the original gloss paint as one of the tones and the lighter green was much more noticable. Steve has a photo of a M151A2 in BC with this earlier paint, but for some reason i cannot download it to the MLU.

thanks
Eric
