Bulgarian greatcoats

Hi

I'm a keen wargamer, and I seem to be unable to find much information about the colours of Bulgarian greatcoats during ww2 , when they were allied with the Germans. No figure manufacturer actually makes Bulgarians, but if I paint up Russian riflemen in greatcoats, they will not be far off, from what the Bulgarian troops, actually looked like.

I found one colour picture of a greatcoat that was grey, but would like to confirm this, before I paint a whole army
