thanks Andy,

very helpful,

Tiger-Dave.

Not Light Grey but Olive Drab. When weathered it looks like light grey but the US used to paint them in Olive Drab.

I love the 7th picture on the first page of the last link…I can just hear it…Lets put some camo netting over the tank so the Germans can’s see us, but let’s leave that big, white star uncovered. No one will notice it, I’m sure! Duhhh, Did we REALLY win the war???
