                        Well, not really...... this photo was taken in December 2005 in South Beach Florida.  These guys are WWII reenactors.  I hope this photo may help some of you with colors of various uniforms.

                        Will do! Ill try a couple, and post them to work out any innacuracies before painting the rest of them...I dont want a whole army storming my Omaha beach diorama with incorectly colored leggings or something equally ridiculous!
