Origionally the M151A2s were issued in the semi gloss US olive green. The cam patterns were later applied at the unit levels. The levels of proffesionalis of the paint ranged from spray guns to 4" paint brushes.

The cam pattern was the same as that detailed for the M38A1s. In fact, if you look at the cam diagram, the line drawing of the jeep is more of an M38 than any other 1/4 ton.

There may be photos out there of M151s in cam patterns ranging from slightly different to totally different, but the regs were that the pattern was that detailed in the manual of cam and concealment, and the same cam patterns could also be found in the FMCOs.

I'll dig out my Jeep cam pattern tomorrow and post it.
