Project F15

[Howard]

G'Day All,
While nosing around on my Uncle's farm a couple of weeks ago, I came across (among other things) the tailgate from my F15! Exciting enough, but last week while I was home from work a bit crook, I noticed that there was remnants of a TAC sign still attached.
So today I attacked it with the wet & dry. Any ideas from our group of those in-the-know?

Photo 3, I've rubbed as much as I dare...

In this one, I have bumped up the contrast & dropped brightness

So, I make out red upper, blue lower, separated by a white band & white band at bottom.
The number at the bottom appears to be "415".
About all I can make out at the top is a "5"
Any ideas?

Red & Blue horizontal is artillery, 415 is HQ L of C Area Camp Staffs (normally a black background) white stripe at bottom is L of C area vehicle marking.

Probably (this is a guess) a truck belonging to a L of C HQ camp AA battery.

Thanks for your quick reply, Cliff!
I am sorry, but this non-military mug needs some help with what you have told me.
What does "L of C" mean exactly?
Thanks, Howard.
