Re: Vichy-French navy NAA-57

For the French there is one and only rule: no rules!
Though there were official specs they were seldom respected, unless markings were applied in factories.
It would be a bit long to give the list of specs and the way they were respected or not.
I wrote in 2000 a booklet on the camo and markings of the French Air Force 1938-1945. We even published an English edition. Both editions are out of print.
If you really are interested by this topic, drop me an e-mail and I'll send you a pdf file - not of the whole booklet, but of the chapter regarding the markings.
Cheers,
Chris
