Soldiers demonstrate the application of war paint to disguise while fighting jungles of Burma (WW2)

A World War II Office of Strategic Services (OSS) training film titled, 'War Paint', demonstrates the use of war paint to disguise or camouflage American soldiers and OSS agents (precursor to Central Intelligence Agency or CIA) with white skin fighting in the Far East jungles, so they are less obvious to the Japanese enemy. American and a native Burmese soldier apply war paint on their legs. Burmese man looks in a mirror and applies color paint on his face. Soldiers apply war paint on their bodies. A soldier applies hair dye on the hair of another soldier. Kachin and White troops move in field. An experienced American commando demonstrates application of paint on the body to darken skin of white man. He gears up, smiles and poses for the camera. Narrator asks "are you going to use it" (the paint). The man seems to shake his head answering no. Next is a dramatized scene showing a soldier in a tree being shot. His helmet with blood on it falls to the ground. Implication is that he was not using camouflage paint to change the tone of his white skin, which made him a more obvious target.
