                        Measure 21 is overall 5-N Navy Blue, with 20-B Deck Blue.

                        Measure 22 is 5-N Navy Blue from the stern level, parallel to the waterline, to the bow.

                        Everything above that is 5-H Haze Grey.

                        The ModelMaster paints are correct for that time period.

                        Thanks Dave,

                        Trouble is, I can't remember where I live sometimes, but I can tell you what colors any US capital ship wore between 1941 and 1945...kinda scary...
