Was it the blue work uniform? I am mainly interested in second line work ie communications etc.

I imagine they would wear their greens in the field. These guys could probably help you out.

HBT's (Herringbone Twills) would be my guess. That seemed to be the most common fatigue uniform in the Pacific.

If you go a google images search for WW2 Seabees. You will see a mix of work blues, p-41 Marine HBT's and 1st Pattern Army HBT's. Officers would be in their work Khakis.

Thanks for the replies, it's more or less to do wire communications chaps ( cannot recall the name) for scenarios I have planned for crossfire. Just wanted them to stand out. I do realise the marines have their own comms chaps but, as I said needed them to stand out from the sea of HBT and camo.

Usrivoy3 I will be going with your suggestion, just wanted it confirmed by the TMP crowd.
