For clothing and military vehicles.

First we will have a look at some history of color.

1611 - Finland - The oldest known color system is credited to astronomer, priest and Neoplatonist Aron Sigfrid Forsius (1569-1637). In his color circle , between the colors Black and White, Red has been placed on the one side since the classical antiquity, and Blue on the other; Yellow then comes between White and Red, pale Yellow between White and Yellow, Orange between Yellow and Red.

I'm not sure who all is with the PGR, but I do know ms behavin is with the Maine PGR and StarCMC is with the Missouri PGR. Glad to know they were represented well. You might be able to coax both ladies into posting a couple pics of rides they've been on.
