make the japanese SNLF use correct uniforms

[shnukshnuk]

the Japanese SNLF are the imperial marines of the japanese navy and only appear on one map. Betio. which is awesome as they arent portrayed much even though they were elite troops.... HOWEVER they use 1944 uniforms which are kahki and army like (the SNLF uniforms were like that in 1944) Betio took place in 1943. and they had olive green uniforms with black boots.... they should look like this

(beta rising storm had them)

Nothing will happen until either IOM, Someone else or TWI (99.99% possibility the won't) looks into it.

They were too similar to the US. Too many TKs happened.

When they had the correct uniforms there were no japanese on the map. There was one bunch of Americans against another bunch of Americans. Some Americans would shoot you some Americans wouldnt. Regardless of what "team" they were in.

It was almost a free for all.

TW's not making any changes. If you want to make this a mod though I can help with that.

This reminds me of those many "Greatcoats for Germans" threads. Evidence was there by many photographs and even some video footage, both wartime, but to this day the Germans have their standard uniforms and freeze to death.
Yes, I know that greatcoats were not specifically winteruniforms but it was better than nothing.

I would love an MP-28, like the level 25 Type 100 but with Working/Useful sights.
