Basically, it was a paper number plate that was usually taped on around the edges. They did tend to start peeling off after a few days once exposed to the weather and vegetation, so not really incorrect Or geography.

If you look closely you can see the peeling part was put over the MILES Velcro. That's why it didn't stick. When my unit used the blue/orange maneuver markers in 78 they were adhesive backed decals. We peeled and placed them. After REFORGER we discovered our mistake and why some units taped them on. It took months to get the white panel backing and glue off the tank. Notice Hoffman device is loaded. The tanks came without the grenade launchers they came in several months later. Well I have the A1 and A2 time to add the A3. Tom

Nice kit, but the only thing that bugs me is the gun tube... It looks slightly off and not to scale. I sent 6 years serving on M60A1s and M60A3s in Germany, Korea and in the States.
