>Source of the name "Magach"
>Although as stated above, officially "Magach" stands for "Chariot
>of War Heroes", other versions exist. One version states that the
>real source of the name is the designation M48A3 (in Gematria 40 is
> "mem" ("m"), 8 is "chet" ("ch") and 3 is "gimel" ("g")).
>Yet another version says that M48A3 can be read as MAgAch (4 looks
>like "A", 8 like "g" etc.). According to another version, "Magach"
>comes from the Hebrew root "n.g.ch." and is akin to the verb "lingoach" - "to ram".
