3-32 Armor "Victory or Death", my old unit. Hard to believe we painted our tanks in that scheme once!

Nice job there Andreas!

The US Army camo in Europe from about 1973 onwards for a few years was just gawd awful! Luckily, 2/4 Inf as well as the 56th FA remained that solid semi-gloss OD, and many, many coats of that they were too.

kkeefe,
Ditto on armor in Germany in the 70's.My first assignment,was on M-60's in a company that had 2 A1's / platoon.Some were painted just like Andreas example,with some reddish brown stripes too.And some of the plain M-60's were still the semi gloss OD. (++) (++)
