Was it common for M36 Jackson’s to have the OD base with black stripes or snake patterns on them in the ETO? I know that they were white washed. I am working on one now and was thinking about that kind of paint scheme. Thanks

I've looked at lots of photos of them online, in Squadron's In action book, in Concord's TB in Germany and US Tank Destroyers, etc, and never noticed one with camo in the ETO. Black/OD combo does not always stand out well in B/W photos, but I've never seen any evidence of any that did have camo.
