Apologies if I have posted this in the wrong section. I am awaiting a couple of books from Amazon but in the meantime I would like to ask a few questions regarding the 503rd and it's KT's during it's Normandy era phase of Op's.
Were the standard 2 or 3 tone camo schemes used/most popular?
Was the MG34 or 42 the most widely issued MG in AA mode?
Was the Zimmerit anti-mine paste extensively used?
Any other relevant information gratefully received.
Shane.

503rd in Normandy
The entire British Empire was built on cups of tea ... and if you think I'm going to war without one, mate, you're mistaken.

Zimmerit on everything, Normandy was called "the green h*ll", so lots of green was used....take a look here.....
