| Most Effective Camouflafe Schemes For Daylight Ops IN WW II Until the end of the war, when many planes went into combat in natural finish, camouflage was used to hide them from view while parked on the ground and, hopefully, to make them less obvious while in the air. Which scheme do you regard as most effective? Was it Italy's "sand & spinach"motif used in the North African campaign? Or do you prefer the RAF's classic green and earth brown over "sky" during the Battle of Britain? No? Well maybe you like Germany's two-gray splinter pattern over light blue-gray adopted from 1941 on. Or France's random Khaki, brown and blue-gray mix over light blue-gray? Then there's the U.S. Navy's three-tone scheme of sea blue blending into intermediate blue and finally into white or, if you prefer its anti-sub option-gull gray over flat white blending into gloss white undersurfaces.And let's not forget the Russians or the Japanese. Go get 'em guys. | ||||||||||||||

| Re: Most Effective Camouflafe Schemes For Daylight Ops IN WW II I really like the camo schemes that the British had in the Battle of Britain and Africa. The US Navy and Marines three tone sea blue schemes were cool looking. Germany had some neat looking ones as well. JP | ||||||||||||||

| Re: Most Effective Camouflafe Schemes For Daylight Ops IN WW II Oops! Looks like I can't spell camouflage- at least not in my heading. Sorry. | ||||||||||||||
