Markings on a GPA
Posted: Mon Jun 11, 2012 1:01 am
Everyone,
I am in the final stages of restoring my GPA (still does not stop me from taking it out) and wanted to try and finalize the markings. I have put 1 large star on each side and a small star on the rear. Also a large star on the engine hood. I have seen period photos that seem to suggest small stars on the rear sides of the vehicle however I have never seen a star on the front. I am also trying to decide what regiment would be appropriate but I am unsure where the GPAs would have been assigned if over in Europe. Any suggestions would be appreciated along with any period photos that indicate a star on the front (facing forward) of the vehicle.
Thanks in advance,
Donovan.
