Thanks for your help, but this reference is for all uniform ?? I tell this because i have seen the pants in a darker shade than the jacket...

It's a rough estimate. Dye lot treatments on fabric 60 years ago were not the best, pants could be darker then the jacket or the the jacket could be darker than the pants. I've seen jackets with pockets lighter than the jacket, one jacket even had a lighter sleeve than the rest of the jacket. Different Dye lots yield different colors.

It didn't matter what shade it was, it was technically the same color. Rarely did anything match up in WWII. Hope this helps, good luck!

Just amend the base colour as Hiroshi says.
