A million years ago I trained on an M60(A)(3)
Trying to model one.
As I recall the inside of the turret was painted white,
what color was underneath side of the commander and loader's hatches?
Seems like white would stick out, but I don't rememeber.

A million years ago we used to pull you guys out of the mud at FT Pickett, VA…

And for the life of me, all I can think of is white…

And I know I just can't remember.

On my tank at Fort Lewis, the inside of the hatches were OD green.

Same color green as the exterior. That's the way it was on the -48s, -60s, Sheridans, Abrams, and -113 variants that equipped the units I had the privilege to serve. Kevin

I seem to remember OD green as well from my time in armored units in the 1970s (M60s, M551s, and M577s).

OD green, or the same base color as the exterior of the tank.
