I’m looking to find a place to get these decals.

I just make from random letters from old decal sheets… You can find plenty of letters and numbers the same size…Depending on the paint job and the era, I mean… Black on a tan bar for modern NATO Black for Desert camo and MERDC, or white on OD for anything prior to the late 70’s MERDC camoflage… Armor units are represented by a triangle after the numbers, like yours in this case would read 3I 3-69 (triangle) on the right fender/bumper, both front and rear, with the admin number of Charlie on the left, C-12… “C” meaning Company C, and the 12 would be the second vehicle in 1st Platoon, or if you’re not building a tank, but a jeep or truck , it would be for the 12th vehicle in Charlie Company…

Here’s a link to making your US vehicles…

Also, keep in mind that many units hide the unit numbers when in combat to keep the enemy in the dark about who they’re up against… They get covered with mud, sandbags, tape, whatever’s handy… Leave the company bumper numbers though…

You can make your own. If you get decal paper, bumper numbers are a breeze. Other markings can be scaled from pics.

If you need more details or help…just pull my lanyard
