   A while back someone mentioned studies done (during the 2nd WW?) about
various camo schemes.  I am working on a paper that also deals with the
use of camoflage - by troops, ships, planes, and equipment.  Would whoever
knows about those studies please send me the information that will let me
find them in the library, or wherever?
   For example, a "pink-gray" was found to be the best color for ships in
the Med (?!).  The type of blue on the underbellies of aircraft depended
on their normal operating altitude (?!).  Etc, etc, etc.
   Thank you very, VERY much in advance.
