Hi Chris, the following is what I used on the M1942 Jump Jacket:

Base: Green Ochre 914
English Uniform 921
Olive Green 888

Lights: 1st, German Beige 821
2d, German Beige 821 + Buff 976

Darks: 1st, Brown Violet 887
2d, Brown Olive 889
3d, Black 950 (very little)

For the steel pot I think I used US Dark Green 893.
On the Mae West I used Andrea's Yellow Set.
As for other items I just used what looked right to me using various shades of green, khaki, etc. I didn't write them down specifically.
I'm not going to take credit for the mixes as I got them from another member, just don't remember who. Must of been one of the guys from Spain because I wrote the colors in my notebook in Spanish.

Hope this helps.

Joe
