You Dutch are soooo crazzzzy!!

I was in Holland in the mid 90's. Amsterdam, 2x. :rolleyes: I love the coffee and the Grolsch. Go AJAX!!!

I saw lots of flowers, and wind mills, and dikes. And dams also. B)

But no tanks.

Since there are two Stuart tanks now and because Bro was still working on the tank which received the new engine they decided to attend a meeting in Belgium with this Stuart as a reconnaissance vehicle.
The tanks were actually used this way in the war without the turret.

That is so cool. Tanks on the road... not something you see every day, or even in the 26 years I've been alive.

You might know the answer to this. What type of paint do they use on the exterior of tanks? Just curious for a project I've been thinking about.
