RAS1 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Ok, more color questions. On the original white weasel, was the camo pattern in green or black? Was the canvas top solid white, white with green (or black) paint for camo, or green with white camo paint. Ty Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OZM29C Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 @RAS1Dave, the school of thought when I put the question about the Operation Frost Weasel colour scheme was that it was OD and white, not black and white as it appears in the photo l.

Ty Dave @RAS1Dave, I haven't been able to find out much information on Task Force Frost other than the exercise was conducted post WW2 so there would be a good chance that the weasel pictured was initially painted in Semi Gloss OD.
