A member of the 1st Canadian Army Tank Brigade resprays a CMP 15-cwt truck in preparation for the invasion of Sicily. Notice how he is following the outline of the original brush-painted Micky Mouse Ear pattern with the new coat of paint. Also notice the difference in shade, the new paint being much darker than the old. This may be SCC No.14 Black vs Dark Tarmac No.4 or even SCC Ia Dark Brown. The overall colour is probably SCC No.2 Brown.
