I think this should be enough information. Thanks for the input! I think I am going to try the SAC bomber tan. I have one last question though, Does any one know what the number for SAC bomber tan is?

Thanks,

101st

I like to use Testors MM SAC Bomber Tan for the M1942 uniforms worn by US Paratroopers prior to Operation Market Garden.

This is a great reference for colors. Doesn't have paint names, but if you have the paints I'm sure you could compare them to the pictures.

101st Airborne uniform color?
Posted by 101stAirborne on Monday, September 12, 2011 6:22 PM

I recently bought some 101st Airborne figures and I was wondering what would be a good color to paint their uniforms. Suprisingly I have never built or painted 101st Airborne figures. I would prefer if it were model master acrylic, Tamiya, or vallejo paint. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

101st
