Jim you have the markings on the correct sides of your truck although they usualy went on a plate mounted off the bumper although this may have been a latter type. The plates had a slip in painted plate marked with the unit marking on one side and 'PASS' on the other. In convoy situations if you broke down or stopped you changed the plate around to read 'PASS' and then convoy trucks behind you knew to pass you and keep going. Excellent work by the way.

EDIT
Jim on further checking Mark Tonner is correct and your markings are on the wrong side. It may be the confusion between what are "Unit" markings and what are "Formation" markings that have led to this mistake happening
