Default it must have been white?

I have seen the interior paint on Sherman tanks in the same sort of tan shade. I know at least one restorer had that shade replicated.

But it is a fact that the interior paint of US AFVs is was white, so the shift in colour was entirely due to aging and other influences.

What do the records say about paint colour specification?
