What colors for WWII US infantry figures

Osprey has tons of books on uniform and equipment. A great investment is a reference library. These books can go for 12 to 17 each depending on whom you buy them from. Squadron has a pretty good listing and their prices are OK bu with a little work you can get the stock numbers and check some of the discount places

There is also a book called "The Supercommandos" by Schiffer publishing.It is about the first special forces unit but it contains some great color photos of U.S. uniforms.

Darien,

follow what paackerson said.

A great book is The World War II GI - US Army Uniforms in Color Photographs 1941/45 from Crowood Publications.

You can fins it at www.amazon.com

Colors will include Olive Drab for shirts, pants, helmet, Khaki for web gear and spats and Russet for boots, weapon slings and other leather gear (boots weren't black until the '50's)

Well, I can only help with the helmet. Make the helmet either Olivedrab or Helodrab.

I have that same kit. For the colors for the figures I would refer to the kit instructions or the box art. I try not to worry to much about the exact colors because uniforms tend to fade and so on, as long as the colors are pretty close.
Take care,
Pat

Not sure, but maybe you should put this question to the 'armor' forum. I'm sure someone there will tell you!
