Excellent examples of the good old days! I've never seen a yellow rifle grenade before. Thanks for posting!
The color code changed in 1942 from yellow to OD Green for non sea ammunition. Naval ship ammunition had a different color code that changed at a later date.
Like HAZORD says it was 1942. If you dig through the OCM reports it shows up as being approved on 11 March 1942 but I haven't seen the actual implementation date so you could guess it was sometime that summer.
