Hmmm...

I used 24087 (Semi-Gloss OD) on my 1952 M38A1. http://www.aaronhorrocks.com/raj/10-03/Jeep-10_20_03-001.jpg

Judging by pictures of 'A1s in Korea, which show very dark green shinny jeeps, I thought that this was the right color for both Korea and possibly early Vietnam. Am I mistaken?

I should have mentioned that the color also depends
on the era you wish to represent. Restored back to 1952,
then use the late WWll lighter color olive drab. A later
version calls for the darker semi-gloss. I forget the
number. 24087, maybe?
