I recently got a good deal on Set 2, CS 18 as well as 5 of the 6 bottles in Set 1, CS 17 of the Lifecolor WW II US Army uniform paints. Some colors seem fairly evident. However others not so much. If you have used this set, any tips on what paints go with what uniforms?

Specifically what matches the M 1941 jacket closest and the M 1942 paratroop uniform? What about webbing? Any tips greatly appreciated!

Missing 422 wool olive drab M 1943 from the loose bottles. Got off of a vendor on Ebay, the set was 19.99. He didn't have CS 17 but had 5 of the 6 bottles loose.

Many thanks fogsoldiers.
