Looking for suggestions for best places to look for how to piant French vehicles for the time period of 1983-1986. |

At that time they were just plain olive drab. NATO tactical signs were painted in white front and rear, plus weight discs (yellow with black numbers) on the front. They switched to NATO three-colour camouflage in the late 1980s. If you're looking for books, the Tankograd series of publications is an excellent place to start. They have a number of photo-albums on Cold War NATO exercises.

Fantastique! Thanks. That's what I had seen so far, but wanted to make sure that, that was right for the time period. |
