"Rosie" Mackie's Spitfire was re painted green/grey over the normal dessert colours in preperation for a move to italy.
i have a theme running of RAF green/grey cammo on most of the major types used by the service so this fitted in nicely.
i have seen this done with yellow or blue code letters, but i am sticking with grey because in his book "Rosie" mentions the re paint but says nothing of unusual coloured code letters, which i think he would of if they were indeed painted a different colour to regulations !
