David Doyle, one of Squadron Signal Publications' 'in-house' authors has just sent us details of two VERY interesting (future) books.
The two books are both part of different series'

5901 - M50a1 Ontos (Detail in Action Series)

This is a 72-page softcover book in the standard Squadron horizontal format. The first 27 pages are devoted to the developmental history and combat operation of the Ontos, the latter focusing primarily on it Vietnam service. The bulk of the photos in this section are black and white. The T165, T165E1, T165E2, M50 and M50A1 are discussed and illustrated. The next six pages are devoted to a walk around of a preserved T165E1, while the balance of the book consists of walk around detail photos, inside and out, of restored examples of the M50A1. There are no color profiles, but there are line drawings to highlight the differences between the M50 and the M50A1.

2046 - M48a3 in Vietnam (in Action Series)

No details as yet - watch this space!

My thanks to David Doyle for spending his time in sending the details and images of these two books!
