Having been born in 1957, I missed the service career of the SE5 by about 39 yearss, so I reported the colors of the 2 (probably not originals at any rate) that I've seen. One was brown, one green. If the Rhinebeck one is an original, it probably was painted green by the US Army Air Service. Almost every account I can find, and the vast majority of illustrations of SE5's, make them brown. As to Jerry bashing, bigotry is the last refuge of the ignorant.
