    My understanding is there was so much OD 41 in the system that the use of ANA 613 was rarely seen in use before 1945. OD 41 tended to be a more greenish shade than the later brownish ANA 613, accounting for variables in manufacture of paints, of course. Cheers, Damian

    Look for LG set availability on the Vendors Board. Announcement will be made there when any sets are ready for purchase. Best Regards, Damian

    My understanding is that in the USAAF it had a lot to do with better treatment when captured by enemy forces, as there was a higher probability of capture for air crews. Officers were accorded better treatment than Staff NCOs, and in turn, Staff NCOs were treated better than lower NCOs and non-NCO personnel. Enlisted aircrew were always Staff NCOs for that reason. At least that's what I've read. Cheers, Damian

    Not that I've seen. GSB overall with a Non-specular Sea Blue anti-glare is good. Cheers, Damian

    Re. cheek guns: Better to have them and not need them rather than need them and not have them.
