Color Description:
US Olive Drab is a flat, muted green-brown that served as the dominant camouflage and concealment color for soldiers and equipment in temperate and woodland environments. It was designed to blend into European, Korean, and Southeast Asian terrain, and it became the defining shade of the U.S. Army from the 1940s to the 1970s. Its durable and adaptable tone is essential for any historically accurate military project.

This color was widely used in the US military from the 1940s through the 1980s.
•    In WWII, Olive Drab was used on nearly all field uniforms, tanks, Jeeps, helmets, tents, and ammunition crates across both the European and Pacific Theaters.
•    In the Korean War, it continued as the standard uniform and equipment color, used for parkas, sleeping bags, and M1 helmets.
•    In the Vietnam War, early combat gear, rucksacks, and support vehicles retained Olive Drab until camouflage patterns gradually replaced it in the late war years.
