Paratrooper Pants

Okay, thanks.

Neo,

Check out the 101st Airborne uniform thread on this forum. I've posted some visuals for reference there.

Okay, Keyworth said wool pants and coats were OD, but USarmymodels (which I already had found) says brown. I've always seen them brown in pictures adn in Band of Brothers, so which is it? OD or Brown.

By the way, what color represetns the light khaki of normandy? Thanks for your help.

Try this one too. It has all the uniforms used my our men and also gives certain model colors for them.

This site should answer those questions for you.

That depends on what time frame you want to portray. The jumpsuits the troopers wore on June 6th were a light khaki color. The later uniforms were Shade OG 47 Green; a much darker green. Wool trousers were olive drab, as were the wool overcoats many wore during the winter of 1944.
