Question Camp Equipment ?

I am making a couple wooden crates to help hide some of my "not so peroid equipment" in and around my tent. What were some of the colors if any were used by the CSA or any Armory that they would have used or gotten things from? What were some names of places, companys, or any other writing that would have been there? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you want to paint it, use Olive drab green. Much of what I see is that color.

Depends what unit you are and what arsenal they recieved goods from. the only writing would have been on the ends of the boxes, not on the front or top.

If I find the pdf file i'll send it to you.
