Thank you! All these years and I had no idea.

More recently there was the same kind of colour-switch error in Guadalcanal between the US and Japanese cruisers.
I guess you could use your green German infantry piece as representing a special elite Wehrmacht unit of some kind – for instance a mountain troop unit.

I’m interested in getting some of both the gray US and the green German infantry. if anyone has some to sell please contact me.

You use them as an English Speaking 5th column, that can move into/through enemy stacks undetected. :)

Somone on ebay has a set of 1941 green British units. The only reason I havent bought them is due to the fact that the allied units are all the same sculpts and I already have plenty green British units already.
