What font did the US Army use for lettering and numbering their trucks in Vietnam? Late war is fine, 1969-1972.
TIA

Most of what I have seen for the 1960s is Military Block A or B. There is a Military Block C, but most of the vehicles I have seen that stencil on was late 1950s and early 1960s. More details about the differences between fonts here:

Thanks Mike, that's what I was looking for. Want to do up a sign to hang below the front bumper for parades and would like the font to be close to that on the truck.
