It is based on the hypothesis that this vehicle can be used to revisit several events in the country’s military history. The work is structured around three parts: the first examines how it arrived in Colombia; then, how it was used doctrinally; and finally, how the Stuart fell into disuse. It was developed through an inductive and qualitative exercise based on a review of primary and secondary sources, such as books, interviews, newspapers, decrees, private and official memoirs, archival sources, photographic and video material, manuals, military regulations, and institutional publications. Este documento tiene el objetivo de analizar cómo un blindado como el M3-A1 “Stuart” hizo parte de algunos acontecimientos de la vida nacional colombiana mientras estuvo en servicio. Parte de la hipótesis de que por medio de este vehículo se pueden revisar algunos acontecimientos de la historia militar del país. El trabajo se estructuró alrededor de tres partes, la primera estudió cómo llegó a Colombia; luego, cómo se empleó doctrinalmente y, por último, se expone cómo el Stuart entró en desuso. El trabajo se elaboró a partir de un ejercicio inductivo y cualitativo sustentado en una revisión de fuentes primarias y secundarias, como libros, entrevistas, prensa, decretos, memorias particulares y oficiales, fuentes de archivo, material foto y videográfico, manuales, reglamentos militares y publicaciones institucionales.
