M*A*S*H Helicopter Olive Drab Color?


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know what Olive Drab color was used on the Army aircraft, specifically the helicopters during the Korean war?  I know there are different FS and ANA Olive Drab colors.

 

I picked up an MRC 1/35 Bell 47D that I'll be building like a TV series M*A*S*H Helicopter.

I happen to have a bottle of Testors MM Olive Drab FS34087 and it does look just like the Helicopter in the above picture.  It also looks a lot like the Olive Drab on the one in this picture below.

 

I know there were different Olive Drab colors used.  Was FS34087 actually the one used during the Korean War?
