Default 1953 m38a1 cdn

So now that I can work on the jeep and the rain has subsided somewhat...I would love to know what colour and size Canadain flag would go on the right front fender and the rear of my jeep?
It was in service till 1976 so I imagine that it had several types. I painted it in the dark black green matt finish that it was primarily in when sold to the public.
Is it the balck flat finish or the gold or green almost dayglow colour which I did find small specs of when sanding and welding...?

Default decal

It is about 4" tall and 7" wide. Someone will chime in with the NATO stock number.

The flag decals are 3" X 6", and, just for Terry, the NSN is 7890-21-868-2606.

Hi Chris guessing you put them on your 70CDN3? If you can can you send me or post a photo of both ends with them on...then I may be able to better place an ad to see about getting some or having them made...Thanks Casey
