USS Oklahoma at Pearl Harbor

Post by lost_texan »

Hey guys, need some help here. I searched the forum but couldnt find this info. Does anyone know if Oklahoma still had the wood colored decks at Pearl Harbor or had they been stained by this time? Also, is there any debate over Oklahoma's paint scheme? (Like Arizona) I always assumed she had been dark gray, but could she have been blue? Thanks for your help.

Have you looked through the CASF Nevada class thread? viewtopic.php?f=47&t=6515

First two pages discuss it. Seems like most likely was 5-D/5-L with false bow wave and unpainted/stained wooden decks. As well, red/red/blue turret tops scheme.
