Historical context
Navy Blue 5-N was introduced by the US Navy in late 1941 as a replacement for Sea Blue (5-S), which proved too light for effective camouflage. The colour contained 50% more blue tinting paste than its predecessor and was used in various camouflage schemes (Measure 11, 21, 22) during the Pacific War.
