A lot of people pass off all US WWII stuff as boring since it's "just all olive drab" but in reality we have tons of interesting camouflages on their equipment. OD and black (very late-war), OD and dark green (Op. Cobra), OD and tan (Italy), and then of course all those crazy pacific-theater Shermans :)

That is an absolutely beautiful tank. You're right, and I've always thought this as well, olive drab and black is a gorgeous combination. It's probably my favorite camouflage pattern in history. American and British tanks used it a lot, and even WWII Soviet aircraft are similar, albeit with a lighter green. Simple, but effective, and it looks amazing.
