Rodney, it would be helpful if we could know what branch markings.
Army?, Marines, Navy, Engineers? etc.

Rodney here are two photos that I took back in the 1970's of an unmolested trailer. From this I made a stencil to transfer the numbers to my trailer. I've added another authentic example as well.

I know it is not much of a photo but there is enough to tell it is a Willy ot Bantam MBT, the interesting thing is the shipping stencil.
