Most people don't realize it, but the US actually bought most of the Centurions in use by NATO.  If you read Simon Dunstan's books on the Centurion, you get the impression that had US money not been behind the purchases, the Centurion would never have become the legend that it is.

Cheers,

Logan

True - I would still like to see a centurion in a scheme similar to this though:

Done!  Next request.  Seriously, though, they basically wore a US scheme in Korea.
