Yeah Brenden, but why do they use blue in the drab uniforms?
Maybe they thought AF always wore blue... This post has been edited by batman on Apr 7 2021, 12:21 PM |

I thought the blue uniforms came out in the 50's? and during the 40's it was olive drab/khaki? Happy to be corrected.

Brenden: "I thought the blue uniforms came out in the 50's? and during the 40's it was olive drab/khaki? Happy to be corrected."
The lightweight/summer drab uniform was in until 1970s/1980s. After that it became the year-round blue uniform, with jacket as required. The point is during WWII, in the tropics it was drabs, not blue. |

Derek,
Many thanks for your appreciation of the Newsletter. Shep in particular puts a lot of time into it, and unfortunately it does not appear appreciated by the Facebook readers. And thanks also for your help with the Wackett article. |
