Back In November,

I made a post, 

 about the British Army fielding a pink jeep in WWII, photograph PA Blanchard & Co. ‘Desert pink’ as it was once referred to, was first used in the Africa campaign of World War 2,

then much to my surprise I have found out that the R.A.F. flew a number of pink Spitfires on reconnaissance missions, photograph and story nowiknow, from the article:

 cloud layer proved to be an excellent cover for these planes. The Spitfires would run their missions at a relatively low altitude, hanging as close to the bottom of the clouds as possible. Enemy planes would have trouble seeing them through or against clouds, as would the forces on the ground. The pink planes, which stood out on the ground, were much harder to detect when in the air — which is where they were being used, 

a pink airplane in war time how amazing is that? another unusual color was used by the Royal Navy, in this case lavender-grey, it happened like this, in 1940, WWII British Royal Navy Admiral Lord Mountbatten had a cunning plan, a particular vessel was painted a lavender-grey colour, a hue that made it harder to detect the ship, both at dawn and dusk, 

Mountbatten felt this clever form of camouflage would give his ships an advantage over the enemy and promptly had his entire destroyer fleet painted the unconventional colour called Mountbatten Pink, but there was a slight flaw, the colour made them more visible in full day light!, illustration and story here, what ever next, a pink submarine?
