Of course there are always exceptions, but most of the Paddlefeet wore overalls while working on the a/c. When not on duty, coveralls; on leave, Class As were worn.
Go to http://128.121.21.20/379thbga.org/news.php to view the Group and Squadron patchs and you might be able to find a few Ground Echelon folks to answer you question more specifically.
You also might check out Roger Freeman's Mighty Eighth War Paint and Heraldry (very back of book) to see all of the Group and Squadron Insignias in color and his Mighty Eighth War Manual.
