U.S. Army Vehicle Markings 1944

Everyone is familiar with the iconic WWII Jeep, its green paintwork annotated with white letters, numbers and symbols. Unintelligible to the casual observer, these markings were integral to the organization of the U.S. Army on the move in 1944.
This uniquely detailed guide covers all the markings used on American tanks and tracked vehicles, lorries and jeeps to denote their unit and classification, plus tactical markings and the debarkation codes used in the Normandy landings.

Hundreds of contemporary photographs are paired with precise color diagrams to show exactly how markings appeared on vehicles, including the exact measurements of markings, and explaining all the different variations in use. A final chapter covers the variations of camouflage used on vehicles.
The perfect reference book for modelers, collectors, and restorers of historic vehicles, and a fascinating guide to anyone wanting to use WWII photographs to aid their research.

Les Véhicules Alliés du D-Day

The Allied landing in Normandy remains to this day the most important military operation in history. D-Day and the immense battle that followed mobilized men and equipment that can only be counted in the thousands, without forgetting the decisive role of the infantryman during the landing.

"Allied vehicles of D-Day" highlights the extreme mechanization of this Allied army that rarely moves on foot. Indeed, the first of the great victories won by the Allies is above all a logistical battle.
Tens of thousands of vehicles of all tonnages will stretch out in immense convoys along the main French roads to allow the infantry and armored divisions to push the enemy to the gates of the Reich.

From the simple motorcycle to the tank, from the Jeep to the GMC, including the half-track and special vehicles, it is the entire American and British military arsenal that landed in a few days on the beaches of Normandy that you will find in this book. The Liberation of France and that of a large part of Europe is above all the victory of the internal combustion engine...

U.S. Army 1944 - Les marquages des véhicules 1944

Authentic markings for American trucks, jeeps and tanks of World War II have always been a delicate and complex subject, as it is closely linked to the organization of the American army.

After a description of the types of machines and vehicles produced by the Arsenal of Democracy, including those that can be found in collections and museums, several chapters abundantly illustrated with period photos and explanatory color drawings go into detail on the organization of units, nationality and unit markings, registration numbers and camouflage.
