Info needed: Wonky Star and Camoflage Paint

[Bruce Parker (RIP)]

I can't imagine an official order, bulletin or guide that said "paint the white recognition star crooked on Canadian vehicles to protest it being an American symbol". There are clear examples of the star being painted straight, on an angle and/or 'funky'. So why the 'funky'? Poor paintmanship in some instances sure, but I've heard directly from several vets that they were un-impressed being asked to paint that American star on their vehicles so took a few liberties with its shape. Or so they told me 50 years after the fact.
