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!

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.
