Default quad markings

3:- Would these trucks have any Arm of Service markings? I imagine that it would involve the New Zealnd fern?

Thanks for any information.

Incidentally I hopefully will be posting a photo sometime in the future of one of my Uncles with his CMP(?) in North Africa.

gday Grahame,
id say there would be markings on the rear such as that photo with the beer bottles, going by kiwi photos ive seen in books there could be the number with the fernleaf on the right rear i think, its hard as the photos i have are usually from a distance, some close ups would have been good,even taken while driving, im sure there were more but over time they disappear, i was given some more recently from my dad who found them in a lot of gear my grandmother had, some of these of which i put on the site. mike, yeah the colurs i think are correct as you stated..
