Can anyone point me to reference material regarding camo paint doctrine of US armor when the invasion of mainland Italy started? Was the green and tan scheme continued, or allowed to lapse?
More specifically, I looking for half-track information/photos.
Thanks,

Not sure this will help, but here's a M2 in 2 tone camo scheme, Gela landing, Sicily July 10, 1943 ( thanks to Google and Patrice Gris ) :
Here's another one (but I'm not sure about the location...) :
