Once again, I have a new question:
What was the most common color of the M1/M2 steel pots (D-day)? Would it be okay/accurate if I used enamel paint 1165 Flat Olive to repaint a DML steel pot? I've seen lighter and darker M1s (My paint is the lighter version) but I'm not sure if I should use it or not. Heres some sites I've used:

Gee wiz I'm stumped Thanks
