for future reference here is what I have in my files
The code for US army olive drab paint is 34087 (3=flat finish, 4=green, 087=specific shade of green, the higher the lighter.) You used to be able to get a copy of Federal Spec 595a (FS595a) that contained color chips of all paint colors in the US inventory and quite a few foreign colors as well. If there's a good hobby shop nearby I'm sure someone there could point you towards FS595a or mixing instructions.
I should say that 34087 olive drab actually is pretty much the same color as green olives. If you want something a little darker try 34079 dark green.

Tough stuff in any military color you want. Used it on the Chalet, took about a half gallon to do the truck through a cheap sprayer. Using it again on my 72 when the time comes.
