Painting and marking from the 1987 Canadian Army Trophy
The Canadian Army Trophy (CAT) competition was an international tournament of NATO tank crews in Western Europe.
The 1987 competition was held on June 15-19, 1987 in Grafenwöhr. 24 tank platoons from six participating countries (Belgium, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States) entered the competition.
The 1987 tournament was the first time the United States took first place since competing in 1977.
