Size of lettering for stencils for Deuce

[ida34]

I can not remember the size of stencil we used to mark our bumpers and windshields on our deuces in the 101st Airborne. I think it was 1 inch for driver and vehicle commander on the windshield and 3 inch for the bumper markings. Can anyone verify this for me?

Thanks
Chuck

That sounds correct to me.

3 inch on 2.5 ton and above was the standard in 4ID, 1CD, and 13 COSOM

FWIW...our deuce had 3" lettering on the bumper and 1" on the windishield when we got it.

We used 3'' for the "US ARMY" legend and truck/unit #'s, and 1'' for all the auxilliary markings (TP/fuel tank/battery box/etc)
