FWIW - I saw some of the British vehicles while stationed in Berlin
in '84-'86 (A/3/6, which later re-designated as A/5/502). Don't know
that the camouflage pattern was very effective. Mostly it made it
obvious that the vehicles were not US, French, Russian or East
German. I may have some old photos of Foxes & Chieftains in
Doughboy City, the MOUT training site we used. Will probably
take a few months to get, as the pix are in storage. Let me know
off line if interested.
