The "standard" camouflage in Spring, 1944 would have been Dark Olive Drab uppers and Neutral Grey undersides. The "factory fresh" demarcation line for camouflaged P-51s (B and D) did not rise up to the bottom of the stabilizer but continued straight aft and included the bottom 6-8 inches of the rudder. The side of the fuselage under the stabilizer would be Dark Olive Drab. Again this was the "standard" pattern - field maintenance, tactical repaints and damage repairs obviously resulted in many deviations from the prescribed colors and patterns.
