...and on favorable (or unfavorable) days even light gray can appear dark gray. :big_grin:

Yes, obviously I considered the fact that this doc was colorized and also I am aware that a final word will never be said on this and many other topics regarding those years.
But we like to have opinions... :smallsmile:

You guys do realize that all those clips were colorized after the fact and can't be used to verify color at all, right?

Thank the internet......
Battle Line was most likely dark gray some people would like to think blue.
Nobody knows.

I don't know how many of you watched this interesting short video doc. If we look closely, at 16", we clearly see a battleship in what definitely look like dark grey and not dark blue measure.
I cannot say whether it is Arizona or another battleship and surely one of the many experts here will be able to recognise it.
In my very personal studies I have come to an opinion, not conclusion of course, that Arizona was in dark grey measure on her fatal day.
