The yellow grenade looks wrong, and suggests a plastic pineapple. It would look better painted black or grey don't you think?

During the early years and at time of WW2 they were yellow then change during the war because they could be seen in the green jungles. Grey with yellow band or total grey and drab green were used after war started.
Yellow meant explosive or like yellow means to most "caution"
Any imput allowed from me. Rudy/26thCav

hope i am doing this right. The yellow grenade is a practice grenade used during training. Don't remember when they stopped using this color but i know they stopped using that type of grenade around the early 70's
