Hi all
Anyone familiar with the field packs, rucksacks, etc supplied in Dragon's 3533 M1A1HA kit, I sure could use your help to put some colour on these items.

Many thanks
Shaun

Just about any shade of O.D. will work. In fact some variation across different pieces of gear would be better because gear coming out of C.I.F. would be new and others old and faded. Also some of the rucksacks could be woodland cammo. One thing they would have in common is the dust. Straps would be a different shade too, usually darker O.D.

Duffel bags and wet weather bags used over sleeping bags can also be a bronze green nylon. The elastic fabric covers on some of the packs were the same as the bdu uniforms. Sleeping mats are a lighter pea green.

Any color so long as it's green. (Except the pack covers

And dusty.

Those covers came in both woodland and desert cammo.
Wet weather bags were about the only piece of gear that wouldn't fade, probably because we destroyed them so often they were always new.
