I'm working on the measure 12 camouflage of North Carolina but the colors I'm finding seem wrong the Ocean gray seems very dark against the Sea Blue and the Haze Gray does not have a lot of contrast either. Does anyone have swatches of the colors I could use?
See what I mean?

Sometime in 1942 it seems to be gone?
