I think the reason I can't remember the main colour scheme is probably because it didn't particularly stand out to me. I must confess to being mildly red-green colour blind, some shades of red can appear very dull to me, even brown.
As far as I recall, the AAC '47s (Sioux) were exchanged for Gazelles and disposed of as long ago as about 1980 so if one was still in camo then it must have looked pretty worn.
