Well,...during my time in the Bundeswehr (an ancient NSL Armed Forces
predecessor) from '86 to '88, the Bundeswehr was just switching to the
new
Drei-Farben-Tarnanstrich (three colour camo) and so the Bundeswehr had
still
lots of olive-drab painted vehicles together with the camouflaged ones
(2/3
to 1/3
in my unit). As the newer vehicles were already painted in the new
scheme,
the
"plain" ones were mostly the older ones (M113, LEO 1, etc...) and a lot
of the
new trucks came in just the new green base colour...
Tschüß !!!
