Hey Gary and Drew-

Gary- That picture of the two zebras heading off to the South Pacific is a winner! Here did you happen to find it! This shot is going directly into my collection of photos!

Drew- I read somewhere that the original black and white "zebra camo" measure that the white stripes were way to bright for night raids and were then painted over with olive drab making it black and OD green stripes which gave the PT's a much darker appearence. I think the article was in an old Sea Classics. Son of a gun, I didn't save the article!

Thanks guys for your input and the pictures! You guys are the greatest!!!

Hey Frank;

I'm not sure where I found this shot. I know it was a US Navy site.
I had posted this picture previously.
