      You want Serial 631: Camouflage Instructions - Carriers, Cruisers, Destroyers, Destroyer Escorts, Assigned to the Pacific Fleet.

      St. Louis is a crap shoot; the orders to use the new paints were ISSUED on February 26, so if we go on that alone I would say that she was in the purple blues, but reference (E) suggests the Navy was working on new formulas in November of 1944, and since Mare Island was the main shipyard for manufacturing paint on the west coast, they most likely already had some stock piles by the end of February. I would still use the purple blues though.

      My guess for St. Paul is neutrals.
