I believe it would have varied upon the Branch of Service that ordered it.

The color standard during the period of manufacture was a bit varied, 
and in many cases was based on a book of paint chips.

I have gone with black since I have it paired with a BC-610. Those were 
all black with white lettering.

It is just my preference to be consistent.
