Default UNFICYP M38A1 Markings

Hi everyone,
Looking for info on the markings for Canadian M38A1's in Cyprus. Specifically looking for dimensions for the decals. Also, anyone know what the font is on the 'UNITED NATIONS' decals?

I just went through this at the shilo museum. We had some copies made up from originals. There was a goofy font on the united nations wording. Just one letter could not be properly replicated.

The original decals were liberated from cypress in 1989.

Dave,

I don’t know if these are correct for your application but this auction ends in 3 days:

The auction Colin refers to shows the goofy S at the end of the "United Nations". The printer could not replicate that.
