Hi Ian,

very pleased with this effort.  As regards colour????????
Surely the Urdu word for dust - i.e. KHAKI.  Just a logical assumption though.
If you have the time to research that and colour it up, that would be brilliant.  n.b. The records of service you require ought to be still available from the Army Personnel Centre at the Ministry of Defence. The contact details are as follows:
