2 years ago, I had several pics of Leclerc with maybe slang words on sides of the turrets I got from internet via Google. I lost them due to computer crash. I couldn't find any same pics anymore this year. Does anyone know of any pics or what were those slang words?

Slang words on the side of a leclerc ? Sorry, I havn't seen any...
But... were they very cleanly written ? Because each tank is named, and it's often the name of a town or something "clean and official" like that.
a great source of pics of french tanks :

Penpen,
Yes, these words were clear written as in formal print. I think I saw 4 or 5 slogans in total. Maybe 3. Only one of them I can remember...____ muerte. Don't remember that first word. Muerte is a French for death or dead. I was watching television news of Abrams tanks at the beginning of Iraqi war or just shortly before, there were several slogans on barrels. One of them I remember...'Natural Born Killer'.
