What camouflage colors were used on German helmets?
A wide spectrum of colors were used to camouflage World War II German helmets. The most common colors were tan, brown, and green in various shades from very dark to very light in overall appearance. In rare circumstances, German Naval (Kriegsmarine) helmets were sometimes over painted in ‘battleship grey’ color. The nature and appearance of German camouflage colors is too numerous to describe in great detail in this format.
