Re: RLM 81/82 – More secrets unveiled

Last lines of that report:

Entwicklung und Erprobung einer tarnung für Mittelmeereinsatz.: Abgeschlossen mit S-Bericht vom 10.11.43. Farbton 83 dunkelblau in Verbindung mit Farbton 72 schwarzgrün für See- und 70 dunkelgrün für Landflugzeuge zur Einführung vorgeschlagen.

'Development and testing of a camouflage for Mediterranean use.: Finished with S-report from 10.11.43. 83 dark blue hue proposed in conjunction with 72 hue black green for sea and 70 dark green for land planes to be introduced.'

Seems it only pertains to Mediterranean use only. Possible that RLM 83 would remain Dark Green for anything other then MTO. Just speculating here, no hard facts.
