I'm looking for some color plates of ground crew
Posted by spiralcity on Tuesday, January 26, 2016 6:06 PM

Hi guys, I'm going to paint my ground crew and pilot from my old monogram kit. I would imagine a standard khaki would be the uniform color?

 

If anyone has some good colored plates of the ground crew and pilots in the Pacific WWII, could you please post them. It would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Kevin

I've been searching my books and the net all day. I find plenty of B&W photos, but rarley a good color plate.

I'm looking for Marine ground crew pics, Guadalcanal(Henderson Field), Efate Island (Bauer Field).

These are the closet I found, and the best I found. I was hoping for more detail.
