A while back I had ask what was the proper green for USMC vehicles. After
some searching, I finally got an answer from a USMC reserve motor stable in
Norther California and I just wanted to pass on what I learned. The USMC
are using the same CARC 383 as the Army. Although many Marines refer to it
as Olive Drab. Don't ask me why. 383 Green and Olive Drab are two very
different colors if you ask me.
I also found out that the "USMC Lackluster Forest Green" on the Rapco Parts
web site was used on vehicle from the Korean war to the end of the Vietnam
war.
I hope some of you find this useful.
