Dark grey was WP...right? Red markings? I used those same rounds when I took my '81 course in '74. Light grey was Illum and we used the M43A1 HE, some marked with WW2 dates.

I choose...second from right. That was the one I started with. Thought it had red, but that was 40 years ago...the band seen in the pics is actually the boreletts...thought it was paint.
