the correct color would be OD 319. There are folks who talk about early and late WWII colors - BUT the manufacturing records for Ford, Mack and Willys all say that their products were the same color number beginning to end.

Remember, the five-digit FS color system didn't exist during WWII - nor did the four-digit TT-C-595 system.

HTH,
DD
