The jeep has been put aside some weeks to other projects, but I will get back to it next week.

I will need some input on the markings/ stencils to get the gpw done up correctly. Does anyone here have some experience with the USN related markings?

I have downloaded a USN font, and have access to a cutter machine. So I can make stencils myself, if I can't find any precut stencils. It would be cool to add an anchor as well. I'm also in the progress of painting a matching colour '44 indian chief, which I also need to make stencils for.

344 chief,

I was a part of the men's department of the Navy, the USMC. However, if you do a search for images, you may wish to look for the Chief Petty Officer rank that has a fouled anchor with USN across it or look at the Seabee's logo with the insect in it.

Almost done with the USN gpw project and the USN Indian (also a '44), just need to add some accessories and add some markings.
