Thanks for the Info on the Tac sign.

Thanks for the info Dan you did not burst my bubble at all. I just want to be able to pin down the where this unit would/could have possibly been deployed to requireing the white UN paint.
Since you did serve with the Airborne. Where in the life span of this Iltis could it have been deployed with Airborne requiring White paint.

The CIN for the all the early work orders indicate the 3rd RCR, Is there any possibilty it was sent to Cyprus? Or was it possibly prepped for the cancelled UN mission MINURSO in the Western Sahara.

There was a 2 colour camo painted on top of the UN white. As where the Fuel filler neck has been banged the paint has been knocked off and the white is clearly under a layer a black.

The layer of whit
Hmmm...painted white for intended deployment to Chad, perhaps?
