Probably it was so, there are not directives about green/green... but camouflages with two greens are described by some veterans, and one who examined a piece of TB in a museum wrote that a thin layer of black over green looks as black-green. So we have to be not too dogmatic.

Massimo,
It's not about being dogmatic but up until now no direct, or indirect, proof has surfaced to confirm "green/green" camo. There was simply only
one camo green in VVS system during GPW (not talking about particular chemistry of paint of course)!
The most reliable sources are documents and relics. Any serious researcher will attest that veterans' recollections are the least reliable source of information. That doesn't say they shouldn't be taken into account, on the contrary, but with a great caution and as a supplementary info.
Painting instructions really specified
one sprayed coat of black over green. So we know
it was black paint and we should not be even debating it over and over. Nobody knows how it actually
looked since there are too many variables involved. I agree it may have looked black-green then it is still more black than green.
Cheers,
Mario
