Does anyone know what colour of 6pdr AT gun Ammo boxes were in WW2.
Were they issued in colours to match vehicle colours the same way German kit started to be 'sand yellow' after Feb 1943, or were UK 6 pdr Ammo boxes just churned out of the factory in one colour throughout WW2.
We are all used to seeing gloss brown ammo boxes these days but I thought that was a post-war colour.
