Hi guys,

I'm still looking for some info of this vehicle.
I found a picture of one on Flickr.com of D troop 10th Cavalry attached to 194th Armored Brigade early seventies in Fort Knox.
Would a M132a1 with MERDC scheme be possible ?
I know that these vehicles were called obsolete early in the eightes, but I would like to make one in MERDC -scheme.

Hope someone can provide me with some pictures of this vehicles in a NON Olive drab scheme !!!!

Thanks !!

I never saw one painted that way. I was at Knox training in about 1980 and with the 11th ACR in Germany. Those were used in Nam a lot but I never saw one other then in OD Green and in a museum.

Here's a nice sites for that camo:

Found a pic of one...



It isn't MERDC paint job, but it is a decent camo....

Nice, I like that. Did it say what unit that was and what time period on the picture?

A few more pics of non standard paint jobs of M132s in Vietnam can be found here .

This is the only non Vietnam M132 picture I can remember seeing:
(from the same source as above)

Hi guys,

Sorry for not replying directly to your posts !!
Thanks anyway for all the good suggestions.
I'm now waiting on a book from Squadron Signals M113 in Vietnam to see of any pictures for the M132a1 Zippo.
To be continued !!
