Brush painted Jeeps
(Told this one before, but just in case.)
About 1977-78, my unit received orders to paint our Jeeps camoflage. They found the man-days, the gallon cans of paint and organized a few work parties. The Jeeps were cleaned thoroughly and allowed to dry. Then the Cpl would hand draw with chalk the diagrams posted above. The Tprs would take 2" brushes and paint the green, green and black pattern. When the Jeep went back to workshop for more major work, they'd come back spray painted camo'. So, hard and soft edge camoflage paint are both authentic finishes.
