WWII Forest Green Uniform thread

[Sgt Leprechaun]

Post your "Forest Greens" from WWII here.

These photos are courtesy of the military forums site (USMF) that I belong to. That having been said, they are also for sale. (NOT by me). If anyone is interested, let me know and I can put you in touch with them. (I do not know the seller, but they are such good photos of 'common' everyday uniforms, I thought I'd post them here for all to see before they are no longer available).
