Colour

Forgot what colour was used on Jerry cans to indicate oil. I remember gasoline was red, diesel yellow, kerone blue but oil?

Found out oil is green

Re: Colour

Hi Henry,

I found it was OD (Olive Drab) for US WWII.

Re: Colour

Just as an aside to the Jerry Cans conversation, has anyone done any work on British manufacturers of WW2 Jerry Cans? I only ask as I've got several here and one of them is marked up as being from 1943 and the maker is AMC. Would this be Associated Motorcycles by any chance?
