Please color for me please.
« on: Sunday 08 October 06 04:13 BST (UK) »
This is a picture of my great uncle Dennis Jones. He was a bomber pilot in WW2 and was killed on a mission over Burma.
This is the only picture that we have of him.
Thanks in advance

Hi ....... I dont have the skills (old age) to do the colour request ...... however he is wearing 'tropical gear' and the attached image does give an idea of the colour.
Perhaps some rootschatter may colour it for you

Hi

With regards to the colour of the uniform, there is nothing wrong with it. In military terms, it is called KD (Khaki Drill), with washing and the sun it goes that colour, I have worn enough of it.
