I finally got my hands on the Lionel US Army Rocket Launcher However I was not happy with Lionel’s decision to paint the US Army version blue so I decided to turn it into the Marine Corp version 45. Here is a couple pics of it in three color camo and weathered as if its been out in the field doing the country proud! -Pete

Excellent camo job. I agree, the Army would never accept a blue painted version.

Thanks everyone for the kind replies......the original Army blue did not cut it for me.....why Lionel did not call it a Navy rocket launcher is a mystery to me Heres the original paint job Lionel did......looks nice but not for a military vehicle.......maybe if it also floated and propelled itself on water from the railroad tracks.....hmmm that would be something! -Pete
