The Sherman T-Weed pictured isn't an M4A3 - it has a cast hull.

Neil,

When I was in Huntsville in Feb of 2009, I didn't see the 2S1 or the M113 you are looking for.

I did get some slightly less green shots of the M4A3, but I don't know if it's the one you're looking for:
M4A3(75) Sherman USA ind SN 12214, RN 3054369

I did a custom white balance in the museum, but the mix of lights makes accurate color really tough!! If I'd had more time I would have tried adjusting Kelvin temps. Forgot my lens hood too. Oops!

Yep, that appears to be what I was looking for - thanks vagabond!
