Doing research my son has found the paint schemes thru the war.He found a site that shows how she was painted from late 1943 to 1945,Most of the War she was painted sea blue.In mid 1944 for 3-4 months she had the camo Stuart used for 1943.He renamed this one to Enterprise 1944M,he also named one Enterprise 1944L which has the sea blue paint scheme.Now all ships have the right paint schemes.

Enterprise nick named the Grey Ghost but that was because as the color faded it looked more grey.

At Midway she was sea blue,she had been just repainted in May and it hadn't faded yet.

In the Big E pt2 these ships will be included.
