Does anyone have any information and/or photos concerning the colour schemes applied to cannon (20-57mm) projectiles in French service during the period WW1 to WW2?
I believe that the long 37mm aircraft incendiary shell from WW1 was pale blue/grey with white bands. I have also seen a naval 37mm AA shell from WW2 which was pale green. And I believe army HE shells in WW2 were yellow. I would be grateful or confirmation or corrections to these, and any other info on this subject.
