I think the color typically is called 'Military Olive Drab' for reference Title: Re: ARMY colors Post by: Slapshot42 on October 21, 2011, 10:07:02 pm Maybe your brother could get the code from the ARMY? Nice one Moondawg. Army: I would try automotive paint supply in your local area. Usually the have a paint index, or book in the store. You might be able to simply just find a few colors that would work for your project. Congrats to your brother! Please thank him for his service and choosing to serve our country!
