Mexico had M3 and M5 Stuarts in operation well into the 1990s' - they were used during the Chiapas rebellion - they also had several M8 75mm howitzer mortar carriages - the only Shermans they had stiill in operation were three tank retriever versions

They orginally got 25 each of the M3A1 and M5 light tanks at the same time they got the 100 M3A1 scout cars

The M8's and the remaining Stuarts fought in 1994 against the Zapatist rebels - they were there to guard against any kind of Guatemalan incursion
