Or M48 Patton tanks as German Tanks, as in "Patton" or "Battle of the 
Bulge". One of my gaming buddies recently told me that the M48's in 
"Patton" (the battle in the North African desert) were part of the 
Morrocan army at the time . He and I discussed running the movie 
versions of one of those two films at Historicon using M48 6mm 
miniatures for the German tanks. This was part of our effort to thumb 
our nose at HMGS.for their "no Fantasy or SciFi except on Thurs or 
Sunday" policy.

Instead we're running two games set in Germany in 1985 during the WWIII 
that never happened and they are perfectly okay with it. Explain that
one.
