I thought he said something like: "Paint X is closer to the postwar OD and too green for WW II. . ."

What's interesting about that chronology was that the x4087 mix up was plain and simple a mistake - the correcting amendment says as much. (This is the only "admitted" mistake in the entire MIL/FED spec system I've ever seen.) IIRC, 14087 and 24087 were a different basic color than 34087 with Rev A. Apparently no one noticed the difference for about 20 years, or they did and just attributed it to the variance in gloss.

Thanks Rick.
